Anyone else have this problem? You get to the space stage and then almost immediately go to war with another empire. I didn't even have time to get money for upgrades for weapons at all. So far I am at war with red and purple. So I'm getting attacked a lot. It sucks.

Problem? I was in Space for 2 minutes before I started making war.

I'm going to give you a few pointers though, now that you're in war, and since you're very early in the game still, I suggest you fight back. Give them hell.

Find their T0-T2 planets, destroy/capture their colonies there, eventually they might suggest peace, take it, and stay out of their sight, as you'll be -33 relation with them, but not be attacked, if you have 100k sporebucks you can gift them that to make them happy, or use friendly tools on them.


Stuff like that

friendly tools liek the happy ray?

Yes i HAd it, they started to say that i should pay them a LOT of cash i didn't agree in 2 hours i had made 3 enemies (all my own creation Pig :lol fortunatly i destroied them really quick becaus ei had a pulsar and 3 allie ships

i pretty much can;t even enjoy the game anymore i try to do a mission or just search around do my own thing and im at war with 3 people the second i even move i get 3 alerts at a time that two of my colonies (one being my whole world) are under attack and my Allie is requesting assistance because there being attacked and then i'll deal with one of them and the second its done i have to prevent eco disaster

It happens. I started out right in the middle of a Warrior empire that quickly demanded tribute I had no chance of paying. The way I overcame them is finding other empires, making them your allies, then paying said allies to make trouble for your enemies. Eventually you'll wear them down to the point where you can conquer their home planet outright. It wasn't easy, but it wouldn't have been much of an accomplishment if it was.

Here is the order of priority when bombarded by alerts.

1. Defend your colonies from attack.
2. Prevent eco disaster on your colonies.
3. Prevent eco disaster on your allies' colonies.
4. Defend your allies from attack (but only if the attacker is someone you are already at war with).
5. (Optional) Defend your colonies from pirates.

Never defend your allies from aliens who you don't want to be at war with, no matter how much they cry about it.
