Yes, this is the manifestation of the ugly SE bug in classical turn games. It is the major reason I play simultaneous turns only !

Sounds very interesting. Maybe you take some time to do this project? I mean you have done already a big part - proportions.

Its not that sure that SEV will rock (you know because of a possible RT-engine) so we will probably have to stay longer with good old SEIV

if you dont want to do it, well, proportions is also excellent as such.

Yeah, but there is no tactical combat in simultaneous, right?

Is it there any way to have combat in simultaneous?

Real time combat will do nothing but make SE5 better. It will be nothing like Starcraft, as that is obviously where your confusion is. A simple pause feature and the ability to do anything while paused (except watch ships move and fire, just look and issue orders) removes any possible problems with RT combat.

Maybe you like realtime. I do not. (if pauseable or not)
To claim that SEV will be better with a RT modus is a pure assumption and a matter of taste. I (and I am sure many old vets of the SE series too) can live without it.

Strategic combat, sure. But I guess you think of tactical - no way. But strategic combat in your solo games helps in many ways:
-You prevent yourself from using the tactical advantage, the AI hasn't
-It's training for PBW combats
-Once your fleet and ship strategies are set up, it saves a lot of time

But on medium/high AI bonus I would prefer tactical sometimes also.

I agree, tactical combat may be fun. Then I suggest to take AIs to your control every other 10 turns. Switch all ministers ON and let SE process one turn. Turn the race back to computer like it was before. It will temporaly clear this bug and greatly help AI !
