Default Re: A pirates life for me...

Thanks for the Big Thinkers bug report.
In fact, while I was playing my HomeComing scenario, I was surprised at how much stuff the AI had crammed into its units, but I didn't catch it as a bug

Download either the new vehiclesize.txt or the full zip to fix the bug. Saved games will work fine after it is installed.
(BTW, I've changed the link in my sig to "Latest P&N" which will updated in every post whenever I upload)


The 4KT hull size is the default for SE4 when you haven't chosen a hull yet. I assume that is so you don't get a division by zero error before you can choose a size to design.

Any missile uses the same picture, from your race style. Seeker spores look the same as Nukes.
The damage they do is real, though. If you check the component you will see "Quad to Shields". Since they are twice the size as CSMs, they essentially do 2x to shields and 1/2x to armor/internals. They're also better at soaking up PD fire (you may have noticed that in the replay).
