Re: Ship/Fleet Exp
OK I just reconfirmed this. I had a fleet with 10% experience with 3 ships. The ships experience were 1%, 14% and 20%. All this experience came from combat no facilities were used. First I entered combat with the fleet. Staying in formation the to hit chance from 6 spaces away was 26%, 39% and 45% meaning the base chance must have been 25% with 1, 14 and 20% added or 15% with the fleet 10%. I reloaded the saved game removed the three ships from the fleet and held the shift button and selected all three and reentered combat. The to hit chances were identical from 6 spaces away. This seems to me to mean that the fleet experience has no bearing on to hit chances. I don't know if it helps in defence.
Can someone else try this and see if they get the same results? I have made a couple of mods but nothing that should effect the to hit chances. Also if someone out there uses the facilities to raise fleet experience does this change the results?
Edit: Ok I went back again to that battle and made both races human players. There is not a defencive bonus for fleet experience either. I will send off an E-mail to Malfador to see if he knows about this.
