@LetoAtreide Thanks, I am going to do the pirate's quest first and then the fallen human empire ones finishing with the city ones.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@smr You should first do the quests in the diplomacy tab before going to the second galaxy. There is 3 lines of quests, do 1 different at each time travel. Find help here: heartofgalaxy.fandom.com/

When should I try to push into the second galaxy I am currently halfway through the first galaxy after time traveling once.

YW! The one week per second is considered as an offline bonus. It's so you can catch up (sort of) for the time missed while you were offline.

And i logged in this morning to find the game is moving at 1 week per second rather then 1 day per second. is there any way to control game speed here?
also ty Holmendis. Fusion reactors now built.

@Irellok In the very early game, Orpheus is the only place you can get hydrogen, which is important for your early fusion reactors until you can get Posirion and beyond.

The only real criticism i have so far is that orpheas is a waste of space int he game. I know there are "Useless planets" in most psace games but with so few planets in this game its really a shame they choose to do this.

@ yowa1: Its part of the mission that some planets will fall under Human Empire's jurisdiction. Maybe to make it extra salty to unlock government options. I have no idea.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
is it just me, or does the traumland mission end that they take half your planets?! what kind of useful reward is this!
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Is it just me or does Kongergate keep freezing? It is not a huge problem I just wait for an auto save to come and then refresh but I find it mildly annoying.

I couldn't figure this out. I got red all over the place and could not bring balance. I can't tell what is incoming and what is outgoing on all the resources and production facilities. I shouldn't have had any shortages because I had lots of basic resources mining, yet I had red on the production buildings, even when I dropped them to small numbers. Something would not balance, and I just gave up. Game is way too complicated. I don't play games to work, I play them to get away from work.

For some reason my T-Ammuniton goes everywhere but my Hub planet and I can't figure out why, no other resource does that?

on armorgames the autofleets were messing with deliveries..here on kongregate overloaded autofleets wont warn anymore by a red alert texte, fleets auto hauled for a day w/o brigning back materials off zelera, got to manualy look at room left in the fleet .. is there an other source for playing that game w/o annoying bugs ? .. this game is wonderful, but deserves a lil adjustments for a fluid playability

This si the best idle game ever. There is something soooo satisfying about building an empire, solving all the problems with supplies, conquering new unique planets, unlocking new research. Love it.

@bearcoco
when you time travel for the first time (and maybe conquer your first planet. conquer not colonize) then the diplomacy tab will stay for good. until then the only way to get it is to upgrade inter-stellar travel.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Update: I have tried switching browsers, went from Chrome to Edge, and the Diplomacy tab is still gone. Since my last post I have now 1274 influence. My goal is to get all the 11 jump planets before my first time jump, I browsed a fandom wiki for like 30mins to see what to do after the starting zone. When I close the game, to go to bed for my example, I also turn off my PC completely. So that covers all things there, software and hardware is up to date as well. Anyone have any suggestions on what to try next, besides downloading a whole new browser? xD
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
My Diplomacy tab on the top middle of the screen vanishes, and only appears when I purchase an interstellar travel upgrade. However it then vanishes again when I have to close the game for whatever reason, like going to bed. At the time of this post my interstellar travel is at level 11, and my influence is 518. So I may not have be end game, but Im not a new player. So I was wondering how this can be fixed.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I REALLY like this game but I find the battle mechanics incredibly complicated (having to use a separate Battle Calculator is bonkers!). Instead, the game ignore the enemy fleet specs (since the game tells you nothing about them anyway) and just tell you what you need to build in order to take over a planet. The OPTION to customize the fleet can stay for power users but the game itself gives you 0 clues on how to beat a fleet which, is probably the primary reason people give up on this game.

@Nicomachus. the only reliable way is to time travel and level interstellar research to level 4. the only way pre-time travel is to level up interstellar travel. but pre- time travel the only reason for diplomacy is the galactic tournament. the early fights are good and beneficial to do but eventually they get pointless
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Thanks Casteele! Also, do you know how to reliably get to the diplomacy screen? It's often unavailable to me. There's no button for it in the tabs right now, but occassionally comes back.

You can see hub flees movements. In the (i) info page, check the "[X] Show automatic deliver fleets" option. (Which is _not_ the same as "Auto-Routes", so it may have been overlooked.)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The auto-router algorithms are seriously broken. I would describe how, but the comments here are limited to 1000 chars. :(

I just left this game from on armorgames cuz my save reset and the loading feature wouldn't work. Can anyone tell me if it works here? Or maybe that I was doing it wrong before? I was about to conquer Ishtar Gate so I had put in some decent time

About the auto-routes: You need to add the ships when they are between the two same planets as hen you clicked merge. Difficult to do in idle bonus
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I'm not sure if it is a glitch but diplomacy will disappear if you refresh. It will reappear in a few weeks. For me it's every 3-4 weeks. When it reappears, don't refresh or it will be gone for a while.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
In order to add to auto-route, just make sure they are the same type of cargo ships as are already in the auto-route you wish to add too. The option to merge with auto-route will be in the ships you are trying to add (Scroll down).
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
is there a trick to get additional ships to merge into an autoroute? I swear I have to try 10 times to get it to take.

@Leonida63: Are you sure your fleet survived the fight? Check your Diplomacy > Attack Reports and read the battle log.

Hello people. I'd like to have your opinion on my not-so-clever trick for the void. I gave Black Madame to FHE and start raiding it to get better resources. However, it seems there is always enough ships to defend the planet. If I send 1 siber, there are only milions of ships defending. If I send huge fleet, Madame is guarded by gazillions of ships.
Or do I just need to send some high magic number that will break the defences?
Thanks

Hello everybody.
I need help: I have finally unlocked RAID attacks for the first time. I have sent my entire fleet with a military value of around 53, from the already conquered Zhuara Nova to Bharash. The fòotta was visible on the outward journey in the Travelig fleets section on a raid mission but then it DISAPPEARED !!!!
What can I do?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
great bug! Next day, load from save - timer is broken, 3 days per tick. Game became broken. good game but not gamable.

Any one has a viable strategy to tackle the later planets in the third galaxy ? I'm stuck at the 600 000 + influence planets, despite having a huge Alk + Siber fleet, with Sky dragons & Babayaga added to act as ablative shields... (QAOW 109, KAW 42)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
any one have issues with things slowing down once your about 6 planets in?
Fixes the problem for about an hour if i restart browser......Probably my horrible computer, jsut wondering if its only me

Ahhh ok. You have to scroll down the Settings (i) screen to find the advanced autoroute, ignore storage, enable building queue etc. That is, UI Settings and Shipping & Deliveries appear underneath the Sound Settings. Got it.

@gx10ggggg states re trade networks, hub planets, autoroutes '3)Turn on "advanced options for trade routes" and "ignore storage on autoroutes creation" in the info menu'.... these controls don't seem to be available anywhere in the info menu, are there steps you have to take to unlock them?

Here are some usefull tools I received from more experienced players when I started playing this game (some years ago)
Beginner guide: http://www.kongregate.com/forums/12-kongregate-multiplayer-games/topics/755389-heart-of-galaxy-hitchhikers-guide-to-the-heart-of-galaxy
Some tools (battle calculator, research calculator, info...): https://godlloyd.github.io/HeartOfGalaxy/
I dont know all, my personal record is getting to the third galaxy (got only few planets there), but I will try to answer some of the questions if you need
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Most people choose Ishtar Gate as the HUB planet in the first galaxy because it is sort of a crossroad (center of map). For HUB planet to work well you need to have 1 Auto-route for each planet to deliver 105% of everything to the HUB. You might have to allow "Advanced options for autoroutes" option. I recommend you to allow all the options in lower section of options menu - It will allow you to make planet send resources for construction to any other planet (considering you had sent some ships to HUB fleet). If you do it correctly, everything will be managed automatically from the hub planet.
Personally Ishtar is the best HUB for me in the first galaxy because I use web browser script that allows me to create all auto-routes with one click - or when the auto route fleet capacity is not sufficient I can top up all autoroutes at once with a single click.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Tip: Don't be too eager to get new planets, and focus on research. (I had 6 planets, with only 2 planets actually doing anything lol)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Next we need to send resources for building as the autoroute does not help with that.
9)Go to the info menu again and check "automatic shipping for queue" and "automatic construction for building queue"
10)Have a fleet of cargo ships on Orpheus. Click the fleet and click "merge with hub fleet"
11) add more as necessary
With this all your planets will be constantly auto-supplied and deliver all your resources to Orpheus where you can build your shipyard and take over the galaxy.
