Is this +1000 your resource income or a total amount you had. If it's total and you've started production of something big(I still have no idea, as the most expensive thing for me now is a school which costs 200 low tech units), then there's no surprise you run out

Finally I've found that. I've decided to look, what if I leave them as is, so I set the time on max and didn't do anything waiting and finally after 4 days or so they attacked my base. So the only way of dealing with them is nearly total extermination (besides one base, that is). So I will take that fight, but it should be rough i fear. I have one machinegun, shotguns and laser rifles, so nothing to level up with cultist range with their snipers

Finally after two months of playing I've the opportunity to do battle with them. (Yes! I do play very slowly, I know). The Cultists appeared some time ago (a day or so of game time), but I haven't made the contact with them until now. Recently they decided to attack one of the explored provinces, so the locals called for help. So now I'm thinking: to answer that call or not. The downside of rejecting this mission is that the Cult will win another territory, besides in close proximity to my own belongings, which is dangerous. Also the relations with the Cyborgs, which own this land will deteriorate. Although I've noticed that when I reject a help mission against mutants or reticulans, the game says the relations deteriorated dramatically. Here I've tried to reject and it was said they just deteriorated. Is that because the Cultists is more serious enemy and I am not at war with them yet, so I am not penalized so much? Well, I'm thinking, if I let them take that province, will they remain neutral to me and just will continue expanding just like I do, not attacking me, or they are hostile from the very beginning no matter what the relations with them are, so they will attack me sooner or later as His Majesty The Random Generator decides.

What an icon? I have a minus sign under the cursor when I click the "Track" button but it still allows me to build tracks. You only need to select the appropriate province, and when you select it it must turn blue. Then you can build tracks there. Also, you can't connect bases that don't have direct connection. That is, if there are some provinces between them that don't belong to you, you can't connect this bases. Ports can be connected with each other only if there is a thin blue line between them appearing when you select one of the ports. So, it's all I can tell by now. Beyond that your guess would be as good as mine. P.S. Try to build land tracks one segment at a time (to the adjacent province). Maybe that will help

And the best is to kill all the aliens except that one. The mission will be completed then. I hope this works every time

There are 2 vfs tools for Aftershock that work with savegames (since theay are also vfs) located here and here. Also there's a plugin for Total Commander which I find the most useful.

For me it was in the demo, though I managed to heal him. What is strange is that a Morelman spits sometimes, but I though that was some acid or such. Or is it referred also as burning damage?

Burning, like all other effects, passes over time. The source of this effect is not necessarily be present all the time. So you might be well away from the flames, but as long as you have this aura, you will be burning. And medkits seems to be the only way to keep the poor soul alive if he (she) isn't healthy enough

Yeah, I already now that. With nearly hundred threads it's difficult to read all in the first place. But I think I'll give it one more try. If not then I turn to this exploit. This means five times for the single province

For me the firearms research appeared after I've got the shotgun (and before I've completed the basic weapons research), so try dropping this.

Thanks. I thought tracks are only for connecting bases.

In Russia Aftershock is sold by 1C both on DVD and on 4CDs. As for the images, I remember reading somewhere about workaround for Alcohol images to work through Starforce. But I can't remember where.

From what I can understand, if I get the resource territory belonging to the country whose capital is not in my posession, I won't recieve resources from it even if I build tracks to that province. I need to get the capital and link it to the transport net. Is that correct?

First time it happened to me was when I was helping psionics. The province contained alien resources - the only one that was diminished, so I needed it badly. What was my disappointment, when after the mission I discovered the province remained neutral. Immediately I initiated another mission there also being a help mission only to discover afterwards that the province still remained neutral! As ill luck would have it, it happened with the province containing resources I needed most. The only good point in that is that my relations with psionics improved considerably

That is most likely. Hmm, how to turn them on then? (In game they are turned on, of course) 5.1 Version of Catalyst offers Control panel that requires .net framework. I don't want to install it simply for having a neat looking settings window. Well, I think it's time to Google out some other prog.
