One of the biggest challenges we have faced in developing Galactic Civilizations III has been map sizes and the memory they require. On a number of occasions, we have tried to reduce the the largest map sizes down to improve performance and shrink memory requirements. And each time we have attempted to do that, we have ended up with a very vocal outcry of anger.īut large map sizes come with a significant memory cost to be aware of. Galactic Civilizations, like its inspiration, Sid Meier's Civilization, is a tile based game. Virtually every space strategy game is point based (you travel across the galaxy from point A to point B without going in-between). There's a good reason why they do that: scale. The largest map size would require around 2GB of memory (on average).įor Galactic Civilizations to pull off the same thing, as a tile based game, means a lot more tiles and a lot faster (late game) ships.įor reference, here are the map sizes for Civilization VI: Size If you want your space game to appear to have an epic scale, then you need to have stars that appear to be very far from one another.
Let's take a look at Galactic Civilizations III: Map Size So, the largest map size in Civilization VI has around 7,000 hexes. That's right, the Ludicrous map size has 100 times more tiles than the largest Civilization VI map. More tiles isn't better, it just means the maps are much bigger and more to the point, and the memory requirements go way up. Until you get to HUGE map sizes, you don't really need a crazy system to play Galactic Civilizations III.
