[quote quoting="post"] If give the player more 220+ research, AI at some point ceases to study them, even if it has resources [/quote] Interesting, how did you figure out this is the limit. I assume this is all the research levels combined?

Reply to Narrowing Phase lanes in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote] I've noticed that when first transiting from one gravity well to another you leave from some "random" point but arive roughly centered on the connecting line. So I was hopping I could edit the lanes to always do this. [/quote] That's actually not true. You can arrive rather far out from the center of the phase lane your traveled on. I thought it was the father away from the lane you were on the exit planet, the farther you'd be at the destination,

Reply to Modder's "Get-an-Answer" Thread in Sins Modding Sins Forums

[quote who="GRAVICH" reply="2709" id="3732240"] Ai stops doing research. The mod has a lot of new research abilities, weapons, etc and research in the branch "Fleet" to improve artifacts found on planets. Each race has about 220 + studies. At some point in the AI just ceases to study new research, although it has enough money and resources. This happens on any game difficulty and I don't even understand how to fix it.

Reply to How compose the army when expanding? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Ideally, you should try to set up a few choke points that can defend most of your Empire. Place starbases, repair bays, and perhaps other defenses grouped together. They should be able to deal with medium to large forces by themselves if set up properly, and even if they fail it will stall the enemy for a while for you to either recall your fleet or build a second one. If this is a big problem, Corvettes and Light Frigates are fairly fast and work well together, so having a fleet with

Reply to Add music in Sins Modding Sins Forums

You need to create a mod. The simple way is to create a new folder in your mod folder, then create a "Sound" folder. Then go to the game install folder and open the Sound folder there. Listen to the files that start with Music. Find one of your tracks you want to replace it with, and paste your track into your mod's Sound folder. Rename the copy of your music to the same name as the one in the install folder. Enable your mod and you will have replaced the default

[quote who="GRAVICH" reply="2704" id="3731619"] Is it possible to make a home planet in GalaxyForge other than DesertHome and TerranHome? Will it work victory condition "HomeworldVictory"? [/quote] Yes, you can make any colonizeable planet a home world. TerranHome and DesertHome are just the ones the standard game uses, have set resource amounts and no planet bonuses.

Reply to Try launching sins from the stardock launcher, permanent loading wheel, force sign out to regain control in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote who="ringlord52" reply="7" id="3726555"] Update... I tried using dev from the stardock launcher and it actually worked... both times i tried it! So getting the game to run isn't a total failure [/quote] Strange. Try deleting your rebellion.user.setting file. One of the reasons the dev.exe will sometimes work but not the main executable is that the dev starts up in windows mode by default and has its own setting file. Deleting the rebellion.user.sett

[quote who="ringlord52" reply="2" id="3726460"] I'm assuming the two files in the middle are the .exe files? i cannot find any files with the extension .exe directly in the name.

[quote who="delican1" reply="2" id="3725153"] thanks - have reverted back to v1.82 but will try updating mods. [/quote] The previous Sins version should be 1.91 FYI, but use whatever you were using for your mod.
