ok, I can copy that compressed string, paste it into a new file, then run
base64 -d < fo_tmp | zlib-flate -uncompress
to get the uncompressed version

I want to get pummeled to death by 6+ AIs in v0.4.10.2. How to do this? The single-player menu does not offer the possibility to put all AIs into the same team. I wanted to edit the turn1 save game to put them all into the same team manually, but the save file is some weird horror show of (supposedl...

Policies: liberty + design simplicity + bureaucracy + gaia transformations + capital markets + planet/system/galactic infra + industrialism + confederation + algo research + diversity (10 species) + artisan workshops. There were also fiftysevens so I got lots of research from the start. Why egassem?...

It's very much possible. Source: I'm a nerd

I ran a big egassem empire in the last multiplayer game, over 1500 PP with most worlds (70) >20 happiness.

YES. They are the difference between bombers firing three times or just once.

Even before that.

bug2? Lost the captured experimentor planet??

bug?

Oberlus, we could also do coop versus multiple ordinary AIs with monsters and experimentors to spice it up.

Could you re-run that with SAC cost 200 PP? Yeah, costs 315 (103) vs 515 (63 ships) 100% chance of 63 destroyed SAC ships, 50% destroyed non-SAC fleet clustered around 52-58 ships out of 103. Maybe this is unfair comparison and I should instead compare same-cost AND same-HP. That is, SAC ships shou...

A prereq should probably also be plasma cannons. Since both plasma and antimatter will need some type of containment field. Anyway, I ran some sims: self-gravs with 1 neutronium plate (1160 HP, low spinal overshot), 4 death rays, no other parts. One team has spinals, while the other does not. cost o...

I built one at my homeworld in the 19th game and switched it from industry to research.

turn 213: it showed target RP = 58, current RP = 8.
turn 214: current RP = 12.

It should get 58 RP immidiately.

> those 4 smalls are likely to cost more PP then 1 spinal antimatter cannon 1 spinal = 250 PP 4 organic hulls = 4 * 8 PP = 32 PP > It also runs into an issue where the large ship with the anitimatter cannon will still have death rays. I opened this thread because the cost calculations say that it i...

This is sad, I was looking forward to another 20 experimentor wave at andor graveyard.

..into a juggernaut. It should've kept its previous name.
