Re: Damm Range Check Errors

Hmmm... when I get these, the game freezes & I have to Alt+Cntrl+Del out of the game. If there are a lot of these RCE's.. it might prove to be a real hinderance to IP play.

Re: More stupid newbie tricks ( questions ) !

I vote for #12... & anything else that makes the AI "smarter" or gives it reasonable advantages. Truthfully, I just don't know enough about many of the other choices to make an informed selection.

Re: How Dumb Is Your Game AI?

Having just played a small tactical battle against the Jaenar, the AI handled the single enemy destroyer quite well. Too well in fact, gave me a real shock & I had to "get out of Dodge".

Re: More stupid newbie tricks ( questions ) !

Just got an "out of range" error about 100-120 turns into a standard game.
