So does that mean the Borg can ONLY research if controlled by the AI?

It was with the Galaxy scenario. I simply started a factory production without messing with any of the planet builds. Once I figure out how, I can send a savefile to check this. This wasn't a captured planet. In fact, this was the very first Borg planet, with production started from day 1...

Very nice! Will install it and try out the Collective the moment I get a chance. (This was fun! I feel like I'm part of the mod now, especially with the aesthetic Kyana Prime change added in) :P EDIT: One slight thing I noticed. Now, this could easily be already noted, or simply be an...

That's true, isn't it? :P

Oh, one other tiny question. I found it slightly odd how the Borg began with Total Logic. Granted, it is logical that their ideology abandons individualism in favor of collectivism. However, in the game, Total Logic benefits planets with a research bonus. Since the Borg can't research, this...

Nice! (whoa, two of my suggestions were implemented! I'm on a roll!) :P

Actually, one very slight change request. I know that the planet name orders are based on the relative importance of those planets. The Krenim only really mention a couple planets. Kyana Prime was mentioned as Annorax's home planet. When the Krenim Weaponship's first displayed temporal...

Question: In the Star Trek Galaxy scenario, are the Borg supposed to only be able to build probes? Considering they can only gain technology from conquest, it seems insane to make it so they are mainly left with probes. Is there a quick fix I can do myself to give the Borg at least...

A couple quick things I learned during early play. I played two games: Probably the first game every new person plays (Borg), followed by my favorite, underappreciated race in the series (Krenim). First of all, the very fact that I could play as the Krenim was awesome (seriously, they showed...

*sigh* That did it! Thanks!

I just uninstalled/reinstalled it, again, directly into My Games, just to make sure. And again, same problem occurred. Posting pictures of the Mods and BtS folders, just to ensure I'm doing it right. If there's another folder/file you want to ask for in the install, I'll be sure to put it...

Okay, then, a couple questions: 1: The mod folder is supposed to have a bunch of little folders for different periods of the series, i.e. a Xindi Attack folder, a Voyager folder, and a general Star Trek folder? 2: After reinstalling, I tried running the program (I tried to start up Star Trek...

I've been trying to get this working... where am I supposed to extract the exe file? From what it looks like during the installation (the installation creates files named Beyond the Sword and Mods), it looks like I'm supposed to install this directly on top of Beyond the Sword, but that doesn't...

Oh, one other note, after playing a game further through: A natural pirate hunter from each nation's king has 20 attack total against a pirate. A fully upgraded flotilla has 20.5 attack (slightly higher, but enough to make the win chance 60%), plus a huge withdrawal chance. To be able to take...

After a few games, I've come to utterly love this mod, and would love to see it expanded! That being said, there are some things I wanted to note. First, I want to emphasize the need to create additional nations in the game. I played a game using the Huge Western Hemisphere map, using 2...
