Psst, over here, I got the latest patch status... shhhh

[jimbob]

Tampa Gamer is absolutely right. MM has done a great job of sending out patches, and has taken the gaming communities suggestions, wants and wishes into account.

The initiative thing is a great improvement. Sure, I'd love to see ship (or fleet) manouverability taken into account (ship movement/ship mass)... but let's face it, this is amongst the best 4x games of all time, and in terms of intertainment/$ it just can't be beat!

I hope this means that te mines/satellites minister will work! In the "Autolaunch satellites?" thread (Oct.6) Tarm (And Baron Munchausen before) asked for an "Automatic unit launch" order for the planets and bases that are building that units. Aub suggested the use of the mines/satellites minister, but he does'nt work in my computer (Tested & verified. The mines and sats remain in the surface/cargo bays)

"6. Fixed - Improved the AI's ability to decide whether to attack or

I hope that this fix the problem when the AI want to send a fleet through a warpoint, but there exist a damaged enemy ship.
