Reply to AI "surrenders" to another CIV and the reaction of anyone with reason in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I don't understand the AI surrender logic at all. I was playing as the Altarians and built a Hall of Empathy. Later on in the game the Torians surrendered to the Drengin. First of all, given the backstory, I would have thought that the Torian AI would be programmed to never surrender to the Drengin. Second, I would like a little information about why one civ surrenders to another.

Reply to Tech victory is just too easy in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I have seen the AI get a tech victory in the patched 1.0 (1.0.10X I think it was called). I don't remember the details, as it was the first game I played.

If it's user error, then the game should prevent the user from using the same name.

The game says "We recommend not using the same name for upgraded designs." I should clarify that the bug is happening when changing military production from the Planet List.

I have a similar screenshot. This planet rebelled to my side and was building a second Starport when it should have been building an Embassy on a bonus tile. Link

Don't forget about creating colony ship with 2 or more engines, especially if you start out with Miniaturization or Ion Drive.
