Tasks for the player
- control food - avoid starvation (so build farms just in time!)
- control labor pool and assign it
- sometimes control structures if they are online
- maybe make individual research assignments
- check everytime your ships to avoid wasting their time
- for expanding range maybe build a construction ship which can build an outpost
- check everytime that your shipyards are running
- check everytime your building queues: one turn left is too less, better 2 or 3 turn left (to avoid waste of industry)
- in MP: try to build shipyards as soon as possible to increase ships
Tips
- at diplomatic offers don't forget to SEND
- ships: right mouse -> select an order
- growth of population first goes to labor pool (bottom) -> put into buildings
Multiplayer Tips
- it seems to be important to search for systems with dilithium and raw material. Systems with many moons are good for the building Moon Habitation
- with transport ships it might be available to conquer systems (don't know exactly)
- Empire's insignia top right shows at mouse over which human player has which race
