Yeah, that's normal because the game and tech were built for the default government, the Colonial Charter. So it's normal that you will still see stuff related to the default government type in the tech tree. We actually see stuff related to other gov. also from time to time.

There has been a couple of reports about that. Thx for the bug report!
That explains it. The devs are already aware of the issue aye.
Do you happen to play on Linux ? There's been a couple of reports about that since 4.0 dropped, but the players were all on linux if I'm not mistaken.
I don't know. I shared your save with the team, haven't really heard anything more on that front. V4.1 had a lot of fixes for the lag, but I know there were more instance of it, having saw some myself. We'll just have to wait and see what happens next.
I got the save, will pass it along! Thx ;)
Well glad that helped, still it's a strange way to fix it. I'll make sure to pass that along.
Can you share a save file of that ? On discord would be easier or else through your favoured file sharing service.
Have you tried the insider build too see if it helps on that front ?
Yeah, filling the bug report is good. Still if you can share the faulty save file that would also be useful if you can. If not, don't sweet it!
Not sure what's up with that then! I'll let the team know so they can take a look tomorrow. In the mean time you can click the ... buttons on the customize your civ screen when starting a new game in order to change your default government. You're not forced to use the one the game assigns to you automatically!
About issue #1, have you tried to finish the turn and look at the numbers again ? A lot of stuff are only updated until the next turn, or until you move the tax sliders, or some other thing that does trigger a refresh. Even after a save reload it does take one turn to go back to normal. Having said that I'll forward it to the team cause it is indeed a bit strange how it behaves. For issue #2 it would be very helpful if you could share a save file found at %userprofile%\Documents\My Ga
Great feedback, I've forwarded it to the team!
[quote who="Flytarget69" reply="4145843" id="542278"] Are you guys sure the beta build didn't get pushed out to the public build? The change in starting government is very much different now when I start a new game. I no longer start with the colonial Charter, but one of the new government types instead. I also start with a battleship and two enforcer ships now where I didn't before. The patch version says 4.01 but when I check the date of the last update, both public and insiders bui
[quote who="orion" reply="4145690" id="542164"] Question from the modding side: are the new governments data driven the way policies are, or is a lot of this hardcoded? Being able to define a custom government with its own screen and its own resource would open up a lot. If the screens are fixed then were limited to reskinning the ones that shipped, which is a much smaller sandbox. Also curious whether the party and senate side is extensible or whether those lists are closed.<
That's good feedback. What you guys are saying is that you'll like too see a stronger narrative track woven into the galactic map itself. Quite an interesting idea, which would require a lot of creative work indeed! You can already do a lot of that through events and even chain of events if you'd want to mod that in the game. There's no text space for background lore on planets though. I'll pass it along!
It's has been reported to the team yes. I've seen it myself on single sector gigantic maps if that's what you guys are talking about.
Thx for the feedback!
You mean while they are surveying and are getting attacked at the end of the turn processing by monster or pirates ? Yeah it would be nice if there was a warning stopping the end of the turn when something dangerous came in range of one of your Flag Ship doing surveying.
What do you mean ?
Well that's strange. Have you tried renaming %userprofile%\Documents\My Games\GalCiv4 as well as completely deleting the installation folders after uninstalling everything ?
Thx for letting us know, will share it with the team.
Perfect. The more examples the devs can get of this issue, the most chance we got they'll figure it out and fix it up for us!
