Mephisto MOD 1.60
 

Sorry to post again but I have final squished the "Index bug". As this bug breaks the game I could not keep it back until my next "regular" patch was ready (which should include a new race).

For all that are interested: The index bug is related to the storage facilities. Generally all "mineral" stuff used minerals in the description (i.e. Resource Generation - Minerals; Resource Gen Modifier System - Minerals and so on). But not so for storage, the correct call for this is "Resource Storage - Mineral". That caused the "Index Error". Just wanted to let you know, all you Modders out there. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Mephisto:

It would be helpful if, in the readme file for each Version of your mod, you listed which files were affected by the Version upgrade. This would be nice for those of us using previous Versions of your mod to know which files we can skip updating.

Thanks in advance,

BBill

I can do this but since patch 1.10 or so I only altered the EA files.

I did not fix the "pause" bug nor did I encounter it. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif Do you have a savegame with the problem?
But Version 1.6 should fix the "Index Error" once and for all.

Thanks for the heads-up Mephisto. B/T/W the "paused" build queu problem was only partially solved in the Darloks 1.30 I just posted. Have you totally resolved this issue now with the EA Version 1.60? If so, how? Regardless, I will download your latest Version and run a blackline, but I was just curious.

Thanks

Well I call it the "paused" build queue, but it really is a less than efficient use of the construction queues by all races (EA and Darlok as well). They will periodically go a few turns without building anything or only one or two items even though there are sufficient resources, cargo spaces and vehicles needed. I will send you a save game over the next couple of days. I think it is a program problem, not a text file problem, since it occurs with all races.

Re: Mephisto MOD 1.60
 

Has anybody informed MM that the AI doesn't always build stuff even though it can?

Re: Mephisto MOD 1.60
 

Yes, it is in my recent bug-list/wishlist that I forwarded as of Last week.
