Stealth mechanic not entirely dependent on Anti-Cloaking Tech/Traits? 5 years ago

As the title suggests, I don't fully understand the stealth mechanics. I've searched around the forums and google, and it seems I am the only one experiencing this. It is possible that mods are to blame, however, I don't believe any of them touch the stealth mechanic.

I have been using the "Ghost" trait for a several custom factions and it doesn't always work. On multiple occassions I have encountered enemy fleets which have no active anti-cloaking tech, hero perks, or system probes, who are still able to de-cloak any level of cloaking tech. I have been able to confirm this, without a doubt, using modding tools and assessing the enemy factions techs, the fleet, and so forth. 

This tends to become less likely in certain portions of the game, perhaps as levels of stealth tech go up, but isn't consistent. The only consistency seems to be that the enemy fleet is larger than mine, parked, guarding the star system, and I have directed my fleet to stop moving in that specific system (as in not passing through to another node). The same has never been true for my fleets, although, the moment I notice there are cloaked enemies I tend to adapt and use anti-cloaking of my own.

My question is this: Is this an intended mechanic? The fact that it always seems to happen in the same scenario has me thinking it is, but I have yet to see any info confirming this. I don't really have anything to add to that. I just want to know I'm not losing my shit. Lol. 

Thanks to anyone willing and able to answer this for me!

I thought UC used robots to fight, but then noticed that infantry sprite of UC depicts only wraiths, no robots.

Mac OS Catalina no longer support 32-bit apps 5 years ago

Mac OS Catalina no longer support 32-bit apps such as ES and EL. It is a real disater for me since I love endless space but now I am not able to play it. And I believe it's also a big problem for all other mac players.

So I wanna know how much time will you take for supporting 64-bit system required by Catalina?

Quest bug "Reborn" 5 years ago

Hi all!

Im posting here cause i dont know how to report a bug (if anyone can told me an easier way to do it, i would be grateful).

As you can see in te screen, there is a quest that appears when you have Nakalim people in your empire and an option to resolve its to have aprobbation (im playing with a custom Hisho and i choosed it cause i thought it would work with Keei, but nnope).

I dont know the accurated names in english cause im playing in spanish, but i think the quest name is something like "The Reborns".

Thanks for read!

Frozen Screen 5 years ago

Hello,

I was hoping to hop back into some endless space with the new dlc's. However I keep running into an issue where the game screen freezes whenever I click on the diplomacy screen. This will happen when I use the hot key aswell. What can I do to resolve this issue? Is this a know bug with a solution? Would it be a good idea to attempt to repair the game through steam or redownload endless space 2?

Quests all gone 5 years ago
