[Modding][Question/Request] A different way to play the game

from GalCiv3 Forums

Is there a way to extend the colonization phase of the game, with a more peaceful start of the game (with no wars initiated), so the civilizations are more developed with a solid economy and a strong industrial power?

Thus, the civilizations have some really developed colonies and technologies before they can enter the extermination phase of the game (wars everywhere).

This will result in more epic games, and not only "rush to the victory" type of games.

I'd start working from this and try creating a galactic event that triggers on game start that lasts for however many turns you want it to and applies to everyone. I suspect that the highlighted area is where you want to work; the <Trigger> needs to be changed to something at game start and I'd suggest trying to add <Scope>Global</Scope> before the <Target> line.
