Episode 3: Saving Admiral Ryan

[@XcitedBenle]

Don't forget to make that beautiful admiral's ship your flagship, if it wasn't auto-assigned ;)

[@KeCzajkowski]

Hey Scott love your stuff! I actually made the art for the in game ships for the Ikkuro. You'll likely notice that the cruiser is a bit messed up looking. It's already been fixed and the update with it should be out soon.

[@scottsspace5562]

Thanks for the kind works. I love the Ikkuro ships - now can we get someone make the humans exciting too?

[@KeCzajkowski]

@@scottsspace5562 Part of the planned free content coming up is graphical updates to existing ships. We also have plans to updates entire factions at some point. I think we'd be starting with the Teekan though.

I really like highlighting the part of the UI you are talking about. It is far from self-explanatory for new players. And thank you for updating your guide for the new version.

[@scottsspace5562]

Glad it was helpful! Appreciate you leaving a comment.

[@pauldangel734]

Thanks for the great series. Your videos are the only ones during which I take actual notes!

[@scottsspace5562]

Glad you like them! Thanks for stopping by!

It said 19 suitability for Humans, not for Ikkuro. You can check the suitability for your species in the colonies tab. If you select the planet, you only see the species living there.

[@scottsspace5562]

Great tip!

Auto-build research -- if there are no research stations to be built, does the constructor sit idle? I tried my 1st game with Ikurro (easier settings), was boxed in by Boskara, Dhayat, and angry humans, no suitable planets or independents and 1 research location - we won 4/5 of of first wars, but just couldn't hold up in the end. More I learn related to this game the more fun it is -- thanks Scott!

[@scottsspace5562]

Yes it does - and I wish it wouldn't. I wish it would just prioritize. That is so much fun when you are against the ropes like that.

[@philoponusvienna]

I know the game quite well, but you can still teach me some things. Never switched construction ships to "research bases" only for example.

[@scottsspace5562]

So glad! thanks for the kind words

[@RellMayers]

100% bonus from species at 50% population, 63% bonus so around 31% ackdarian population

[@scottsspace5562]

Awesome thanks! Do you know where that is documented?

[@RellMayers]

@@scottsspace5562 it was written in devs summary of changes between aurora and release

[@BradTheTryHard]

Woooohoooo get dat boy back! Edit after watching: our boy is back! Its time for the come back story 😁 and in the future our great admiral may be making a great defensive crusade to protect his people from the near by buggos

[@scottsspace5562]

Well he go addressed for making a bad call but yes - let's see him redeem himself and take out that pesky Pirate base!

[@BradTheTryHard]

@@scottsspace5562 considering your infantry is pretty strong, is it possible to capture the pirate ships/bases? That sounds a really interesting way if you could capture and "hold them prisoners" even if that is only roleplay and not actually a mechanic

[@themacker894]

You may not be aware that you can move your own people off the human colony. Their suitability is 40, where your race is 5. You're right that you don't want your people multiplying on that planet since they will be a draw on resources. Set the population policies to move your race off the planet and then research and build some passenger ships. :)

[@scottsspace5562]

I will be changing migration settings to tell them to go. Manually I can pull of population off w a colony ship in general but not by species unless I’m missing something.
