Aquilonia Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 My lifeform modifiers changed ! I thought they are permanent... One of them increased others decreased Did that happen to anybody else ? Are these modifiers vary according to average of all empires ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Miles Avatar Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 They can change actually... although Im not sure if they go down. I would think sucessfully researching certain genetic modifications to your lifeform would change them. Perhaps playing god with your DNA has unforseen consquences that will prevent abuse.

Hiver Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 I'm glad you posted this. I suspected as much...it makes sense that if a tech advance should change your race in some way, that should change your lifeform modifier as well. This is good news, because it apeears (as Pete and Russ have alluded to), that we can improve upon our race (even genetically) in time. Very interesting...

Aquilonia Posted July 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2003 A good mechanism of the game maybe, but how come 6 of my modifiers go down, two stays same and one goes up ? Maybe it means I m not researching in correct direction ? I get increase at CCM but I m researching many kinds of techs.. I want my high modifiers back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locklyn Posted July 8, 2003 Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 Are you saying that your skimpy bars (on the cover page) have changed? This sounds weird and should only happen if you have indeed done some genetic engineering and bought better race package or bought off some disads otherwise it shouldn't be changing on you unless there has been a bug somewhere...*nervous smile* better recheck my own bars... /Locklyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilonia Posted July 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 Yes, 7 out of 9 are all changed... negative changing... I lost all my setup points !!! I am only researching Genetic Engineering, not finished yet.. And CloseCombat increased but I didnt research a CCM tech yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locklyn Posted July 8, 2003 Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 This sounds like something you should have Pete look at! /Locklyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted July 8, 2003 Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 Yeah, I would check with Pete. You didn't just change printers or something ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilonia Posted July 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2003 Right. I sent an email. Will inform you all what is the reason .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWillard Posted July 19, 2003 Report Share Posted July 19, 2003 Keep in mind that if the bars do change due to genetic eng. that they are all relative to each other. Because of this, I think it would be possible to see some bars shrink and some lengthen even though you only added positive modifiers.

Aquilonia Posted July 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 I received my turn. and my lifeform modifiers came back to their original state. Looks it was some kind of small alien (called bug) and being wiped out to dust... We will see in near future what are the effects of genetic engineering ? I think all modifiers have ratio to each other so as DWillard mentioned. So by math, if the highest of the modifier is increased than others maybe shown shrinked graphically though they dont decrease in real value..
