I feel really stupid, but I can't seem to create any treaties. I have discovered other empires and tried sending them a treaty proposal, but they never respond, and now they're starting to get really ticked off at me. I have tried this several times, and it never seems to work. Would someone please be kind enough to un-confuse me and help me spread peace throughout the galaxy?

If I do not have a certain racial technology, is it then possible to get this technologies in any way from another player who has them?

This post is in reference to the "Grudge" game on play-by-web. We thought we were all ready to start the game, but one our players has gone missing. We need a replacement very soon. The first turn has not been run yet, and we don't want to start without a full complement of 8 players due to the special victory conditions of this game.

Hi guys I wanted to get some feedback on a new project I started with SE IV. I'm making a number of changes to various aspects of the game such as vehicle sizes, armor, shields, and mostly missiles. Missiles now have a seeking speed equal to their range and a fire rate of 2. Crystalline, Organic, Stealth, and Scattering Armor reduced down to 20kT. Emissive Armor changed to 10kT. I then added the Gamma Pulse Torpedo from SE V. Minerals, Organics and Radioactives extraction now starts at 2000 instead of 800. Bridge, Life Suppot, and Crew Quarters now moved to a starting tech called Vehicle Systems. I completely deleted the vehicle size baseship from the game. So far, the AI is doing a lot better with their ship designs. Changed the Main/Secondary weapon pick for the Amon'krie AI design file. Now their ships are designed with sensors.

Game version 1.66
Mod: Balance 1.14

two things well one thing really and something thats annoying...

Asteroides, storms and warp points all look like suns

I had a bunch of drones at a warp point and in comes a scout ship, an Organic Frigate. My drones can only keep pace with it, and he just runs away and destroys a ton, and damages even more.

Organic frigate had contra-tera lvl 1 engines, 5x
my drones were crystal, small and lvl 1 ion engine 2x

why cant the drone hit him, drones are supposed to be inherently fast, they have a huge defense bonus because they are small and everything...
