Galactic Civilizations IV: Supernova Galactic Civilizations IV: Supernova Galactic Civilizations IV

Some questions on the game status and possible future(mainly for modding purposes)

Hello. Not a GalactiCiv IV owner yet(still fiddling with some GC III stuff and I haven't really played it much, mostly modding it). I was wondering about some stuff. I don't know if they can be currently answered, but I'd appreciate some feedback on them.

Like: Is it possible or in the plans to make races in the race editor that start in a blue sun star system? That is something I wanted to do since GC II. You know, for races that start not in their original star system, like Iconians or other refugee types or misplaced for some reason. For flavor purposes.

Also about the AlienChatGPT: Can I add my portraits I made and logos and citizens(when that gets added) so the generator will also add them to the pool of choices it picks from or combines, so that some results get affected by my own creations to an extent(I have a vast library of those with years and just haven't released them for a variety of reasons)?

Will it be possible for owners of all the games to have something like say GC III ship models as export base hulls or something for GC IV? I'm thinking like what they did with Warhammer Total War III combining the map I, II, III as an analogy, since it's the 30 years anniversary. I don't know if it is technically feasible, but it would be cool.

Also can we have a scenario builder that can define starting time? We could make maps and it could be something like GC II just not in a campaign, if used well(with a better scenario editor than GC II's preferably. Was fine for its time but would be outadated now and Stardock engineers proved that they can outdo themselves with every next iteration anyway).
