I just realized: I can't remember having ever gotten 'ruins' rechnology in SEV so far? Can't remember if I even saw any ruins at all.

When I propose a rule change in my Alliance, the other alliance members wont vote? In fact, they wont vote on any propositions I make.

a known bug with SE5 is that ruins and system/planet abilities are getting deleted after the first turn.

New bug: Autotarget doesn't seem to make use of point defense. I'll have ships with point defense cannons fly into a cloud of fighters and just get blown to bits. The PD's never fire. AI ships don't seem to have this problem. In order to get my PD's to fire I have to manually target each fighter with the point defense. I can only do this in turn-based games, obviously. I don't know if this issue effects simultaneous games, but I suspect it does since simultaneous combat most likely uses the same automove/autotarget logic.

I can confirm the point defense bug against fighters.
Another bug with fighters: even with zero supplies they retain their full combat speed.
Both bugs have been reported to MM.

I switched one of the AI empires to manual control. It was a almost dead empire, who had only some fighters left, which I wanted to eliminate. After I did that, I waited for the message "You loose" and continued with my real empire then saved the game.
When I tried to reload this savegame, it turned out to be impossible.
Went back to the last intact savegame, did everything the same but switched back the dying empire to AI control immediatetly after the fighters were eliminated. Everything was fine.
Conclusion: If one of human controled empires dies (displaying the "you loose" picture), the savegame gets corrupted and you can't load it again.
