Trade Route Durations Note:
Since the trade route duration is a global value and not dependent on game speed, you can easily change it to any value you want by going to My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization Beyond Earth\MODS\Additional Game Speeds (v 2)\XML\Game Rules.sql. Open the SQL file with any text editor and change the number 60 to any number you want. This change is save game compatable, though current trade rates wont' be affected, until the cycle ends. Upon renewing the trade route the new duration will take affect.
Recommended setting for Blitz and Hyper: 10
Recommended setting for Lighting: 15
Recommended setting for Quick: 20
Defaut is 25.

Some work arounds for known bugs with the game:
Game Ends too Quickly: Enable "Max Turns" in the advanced setup and set it to 0.
Unit Action Bar disappears: Save your current game, Exit to the games Main Menu. Load the game you just saved.
Mod doesn't show up in the mod list. Delete your games cache found at My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization Beyond Earth\Cache
Note about Mods: Most mods are not save game compatable. What that means is you shouldn't update, disable, or enable any mods while playing from a saved game, otherwise you risk corrupting it. When changing/updating your mods you should start a new game.
