Spore is cool. Not exactly the end-all be-all of gaming, but a fun time none the less. I was devouring entire species and eradicating whole tribes with ease, I even nuked half the planet with an ICBM, which I have dubbed "the win button". But now that I'm in space I just can't figure out what the fuck I'm doing.

All of a sudden I'm trying to manage colonies that don't produce anything, and defending myself from a relentlessly aggressive and openly hostile neighbor. So! If someone out there is better than me at Spore, tell me your secrets.

My questions:

1. How do I upgrade my space ship? I think I have some parts I can throw on there.

2. How do I get more than ONE space ship? (My enemy consistently attacks with half a dozen.)

3. How the FUCK do I get this terraforming shit working?

4. Lastly, any tips on making ridiculous amounts of money?
4b. What is useful to buy and how do I purchase it?

I hope I'm not the only one who felt a bit overwhelmed by the sheer amount of tips that pop up once you hit the galactic level.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't played it, but from what I've read

You can't get more spaceships, you can recruit friendly of civs to fight with you.

I read that the space section is kind of broken. that if you are unlucky and get unfriendly civs near you they just pound you.

try reading about the space stage in this review.

I don't know..i have a Mac and the wrong built in video card :(
^I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT EVEN MEANS!!!!^
Yea, my comment was meant at Mxy, NOT Kryptinite.
What the hell, my comment vanished or I forgot to post it :(

Anyway here it goes again:

1. As you rank up, you will get messages that new parts have been unlocked. You need to buy this, probably at your homeworld. Prepare to spend cash...

2. At admiral rank, you can get 1 extra ship from an ally. So you need to do a few missions for another race to get them friendly, then ally with them, then ask them for a spaceship once you can fit one. It works like the pack system in creature stage.
3. For terraforming, you need to either A) level the planet up by placing atmospheric terraformers, then place small/medium/large plantlife and herbivores/carnivores on the planet to create a sustainable ecosystem. If you do the first few expansion missions, they will give you one of these and guide you through the process.

If you place a colony on a level 1 or higher planet, you just have to scan all kinds of life until you have checked out all life on the planet (I think), or just place another atmosperic terraformer.
I have no idea why, but I can't comment the whole thing for some reason. I just sent you a pm with some tips instead, sorry about the 3 posts :)

Yes the space state is confusing at first, first thing I would do of I were you is take out the neibour or ally with him
To upgrade your ship you need badges (check the my collection button it's on the lower left)
Money is ridiculous to get! So I use a cheat (ctl shift c then type more money)
The best weapon in my opinion is the laser :D it's easy and cheap to upgrade and by the 2nd one it is a tank! You can take out colony's in less then 5 seconds that's no exajeration the antimatter missiles are good to but you don't get them till later
