Questions Not Worth Their Own Thread: C# Edition

Thanks for replying but it isnt working. I have tried every single officer in the list, every rank at least once and no tactical officer listing shows up. Could it be because I have several modules on the ship? (see screeny)

I find that I have to select an officer of the correct rank before the window will show the executive officer positions.
It basically acts as if the "Eligible only" box is always ticked.

Yes that is what I am saying, I have clicked on officers showing all the ranks, many times over. There are seven and I tried them all without the position showing up i.e. LCDR CDR CAPT CDRE RADM VADM ADM. With the same method I was able to get the Chief Engineer and Exec to show, so I think its probably a bug or unimplemented re: Tactical Officer, I haven't built enough battleships to work out if its an edge case or unimplemented or what !? And I dont want to be a nuisance and waste Steves time with a bogus bug report if its simply unimplemented and on the to do list.

Do Construction Vehicles work on ships?

That is, do they provide a fortification bonus to units that are aboard ships?

I think only Infantry and CAP take part to boarding and or defending a ship

Where do you reduce ship speed?

Where do you reduce ship speed?

Select the fleet in the Naval window, the button to set speed will appear in the bottom left.
Make sure you turn "use maximum speed" off, that's next to cycle moves.

Thanks.  I probably looked at that window ten times and kept missing it.

Started a new game after a long pause, so a lot has changed.
How do I create Geological survey team in the new aurora? Am I just missing something?

I don't know if this is a bug or WAI, can't find anything about it.

I have a body under survey from a ship in its orbit.  At around half the SP required to survey, I order the ship to break off and come back after crew rest.  The SP points required for the full survey reset to the initial value.  Is this how it's supposed to be?

[Silverkeeper]

Serious game slowdown. Suppose I have only myself to blame, started a game with 4 AI opponents . If any of you have suggestions on speeding up the game it would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, the survey points are tracked with the order, not the planet.

[vorpal+5]

Meaning also that 2 ships can't do a joint effort to survey a body?

[Rince Wind]

If it really is the order it should work when they are in the same fleet, I think.

They can if they are in the same fleet. Standing Orders will not send two separate fleets to the same body, but they will send a fleet of two or more ships.

[vorpal+5]

yes true, but then it still feel a bit artificial to have say a geo-missile useless if it can't gather enough survey points to finish a planet.
Now I think geo missiles are a thing of the past in anycase
