Circular build ships buttons looks SOO MUCH BETTER than the square ones! please have an option to adjust the buttons for the ship building and hangar to be circular or square 😀
Hello.
I’ve found an issue with a trade routes. Before this update I was able to see a vusial route on a map with moving cursor to the route at the route’s list, but now I have to click the route and get inside to see a visual routing on the map. and now there is no easy and fast way to get route visual – you need to click on the every route. it’s very strage and awkward.
Yes, I got the same issue!
Hello Everyone!
Thank you for the update and general improvements. I just want to report an issue. I got a population unbalance in Enbesa after downloading GU15. Both population tiers got a shortage of more than a thousand each and it is happening only in Enbesa. In all other regions population number apparently remained the same. Just wondering if anyone would know what’s happening. Thank you!
Ops! I got the new mechanics now!
Grand gallery items feel lackluster
Was expecting a little more choises
Can we get an option to hide or reset in game clock? Feel really uneasy when I see how many days I have in a game. Dead serious.
I have not added friends as friends in UBISOFT because I fear they will see how many hours i been playing. So I hear you. And to make matters worse, I suspect the game don’t log all the hours. Perhaps we need to start Annoholics Anonymous.
I think a major problem with all of the DLC’s was how little the new goods could feed back into other regions. Lifestyle Needs is definitely a step forward in remedying this.
Thank you very much for fixing the cursor size changing!
What about The Grand Gallery?
