How can I have 29% of the galactic influence, yet be the 7th most influential civ?

I haven't read the manual, so my apologies if that makes it clear.

Also, while I'm on the forum, I've just switched to the beta expansion patch and it seems I can no longer win on "simple" level. I haven't played very much, but all my recent games have been at simple level, and I won easily. Since I started using the beta expansion patch I'm losing by a mile, with no real prospect of turning it around. Very strange, because I really do know how to beat the game on simple (after all, it's not real hard).

I think they are two different things - galactic influence may be related to the sectors you control, whereas your influence relates to the UP.

Ah OK, thanks.

By the way please ignore the other question - I seem to have turned the game round now, but it took an awful long time. Probably some events just conspired against me.
