Re: My journey of improving the AI

Good to hear that someone is still interested to improve this game. I still don't understand why the developers haven't put more effort into this. They could have turned a very good game into a great game.

Uses AI artillery?

I can't remember that I have ever been attacked by my opponents with artillery - one of my preferred tactics to reduce enemy forces to rubble. Did anyone else make the same observation?

In-Game Clock

This is surely nothing important or necessary, but what about a clock in the GUI? When I play Pandora I often completely forget the time and a small clock left of the game date would be a nice idea.

Messari Bonus

Besides removing the threat of emerging Messari units there is not really an incentive to destroy the portals. After some time you even like the Messari units as your troops can gain experience from destroying them. So why not grant the faction that destroys a portal a special technology? Some speci...

Re: Railway

Maps are maybe not big enough. There should be movement costs to embark and then to disembark. Attacking should be forbidden when embarked, save for infantry at half attack (and for train units with included weapon), and defending is too by the train unit or embarked infantry (other units can't def...

Railway

At the moment the game has only roads, but I think it lacks a faster transport mechanism for ground vehicles. Why not implement some kind of railway (vacuum railway tubes, or magnetic levitation to give it a fancy name) which reduces the movement cost to 1/10 or so?

Re: Maximum Map size

We changed them to deliver a more consistent experience. If you would like bigger ones you can change values in Data/World/WorldParameters.xml (after copying it to the user data folder as described in the read me). Thank you! I had already changed it myself, but hadn't been entirely sure if my memo...

Maximum Map size

The largest map size is now 56x56. Wasn't there a bigger size in the previous versions? 96x96 or similar?

Re: Ideas for finetuning

Re: Unique city graphics for each fraction

Good idea. I have also noted the lack of unique city designs. It would add some flavor.

Ideas for finetuning

I really enjoy playing Pandora, but there are some things which still could need some fine tuning. So here are a few ideas I have compiled over the last weeks. +Orbital scans for example should have the option for automatic scans. If I'm not actually at war with another faction it is somewhat annoyi...

1.1.2 tries to update to 1.1.2

I have already updated to 1.1.2 but at every game start the Updater informs me that a 'new' upload is availabe but it's 1.1.2.

The game itself works perfectly.
