Re: You know
Yes, tell MM about the mem leak.

Re: You know
You know, one thing I have noticed after the new patch is that after starting up a saved game, my ships mover really fast. I am talking lightening fast. I know thats not normal, but I think it may be related to the mem leak. You see, the move real slow, and then after a shut down restart, they blaze.
Not a programer so hay. Sound it off you guys.

Re: You know
The other day when I had a problem with my engine mod I made the AI races human to see what had happened. Well every AI race had ships that really zipped compared to the way mine usually move at least 3 or 4 times the speed I normally see (and no I don't think it was because they had more engines on their ships )  . I also get very slow movement from my ships if I use the modem then start the game. So I have seen 3 different speeds that these ships move now. I have no idea what is causing these speed changes.
I always have to restart my computer after using my modem the game really crawls too slow to play then expecially if I have built a good number of ships.

Re: You know
Just a little question.
Are you guys using DirectX 8.0?

More then likely this is becuase you have a software modem which eats available resources.

Re: You know
Actually, I had a problem with the animation speeds too. Happened right after I'd been surfing the web for a couple hours, then tried to play. Not only was the animation fast, I had trouble with images appearing and disappearing (like the video problems from demo Version 0.56 - buttons disappearing, ship/planet pictures disappearing from the upper right-hand window (sector display?), etc.). A restart fixed everything...

Re: You know
Hmm, I have seen the ships move verry slow and verry fast too. I noticed that when I turn on the CD music(I don't use the CD) the ships move slowly. Why do the ships move fast though?
