Ape Apps

Hi I seem to be at a bit of a standstill with my new zolarg colony. I mainly built it to mine aluminium for my other colonies but still hoped to build it up nicely.

Basically I unlocked all of the available tech - up to and including aluminium mining, access to trading, and their first tourism buildings, but now seem to be stuck. The next research option is "Ancient Alien Language" but there hasn't been anything to help me dig for the artifacts. I have at least one of every building available, and have every resource available but no option for archaeological dig sites or any equivalent so have no artifact to unlock the "Ancient Alien Language" even though i have more than enough research points.

Are alien artifacts something you have to buy/gift on the zolarg forest world? Or do I need independence to get that? You don't on the human world.

All help appreciated. I'm only at 50,000 civics so have a long way to go before independence... Built some money pits and extra command centres but they don't seem to be generating much so are the elder mounds best for the price?

Help appreciated.

Thanks!

I am having the same issue.
I unlocked the ancient alien tech but nothing happens. No new techs/buildings/nothing.
On ice world.
Can't collect diamonds or uranium either and there are node on the map.

Any help would be appreciated.

You should be able to import alien artifacts using the Trade building. Otherwise, you will probably have to wait until you gain independence.

Sooo looks like your blocked from advancing past alien tech until you declare independence. Just broke away and got new reaserch options.

It is intentional that you need independence for advanced Zolarg tech. Being independent allows for more freedom to research what you want type thing.

I am on the Forest planet with Zolarg, I am independant, I have all pre-reqs for Alien Manufacturing but the research tab hasn't ever shown up. I'm having to use this as a farm since I can't manufacture anything here. Though I am making a LOT of Alien Artifacts that are helping out my other worlds. I would like to see if someone can fix this issue! Thanks!

@scottnevil - you mean no building has shown up to earn research points? or you mean no new research has shown up? more specifically have you gotten the tech Mysticism? That one should unlock the ability to create Antaura(not Antanium) and then give you the ability to create the Unholy Spire, mound and a few others.

@misteddawn - "No Technology - There are no available techs at this time." I have over 500,000 available research points. I have all things Mysticism. I have all things unholy. Basically, to make sure I wasn't crazy, I went through and built one of EVERY thing that was available just to see if it would unlock something else. Plus, I can't get over about 7000 zolargians before food becomes an issue. Right now, half of my screen is dedicated to food production. A bit ridiculous. Maybe I've unlocked everything.... Maybe Zolarg is just meant to be a farming race?

The Food Fortification Facility is the more advanced food production building. There isn't one more advanced (yet?). I have quite a few as well - 315 atm and almost 31k in citizens and I'm running pretty low though its rebuilding my store; over 3mil in storage and not even 10k stored.

Do you mean Ancient Alien Manufacturing technology? It is available only to Humans.

Check out the reference page, it is hugely helpful for what you need for a building/research/to find out what produces what...

https://www.my-colony.com/reference/general.html - there are other tabs for various needs as well.
