Actually, I think I've discovered another type of RCE; on two separate occasions I've had an RCE occur when I've given orders to a ship/fleet to move through a sector that was clear when I issued the order, but was later occupied by an enemy ship/fleet. Clearing the ship/fleet orders, ending the turn, and then re-issuing the orders clears the RCE.

Hmmm... when I get these, the game freezes & I have to Alt+Cntrl+Del out of the game. If there are a lot of these RCE's.. it might prove to be a real hinderance to IP play.

I wouldn't say there are many RCE's... I've only gotten an RCE twice since I started playing SE4 (and I bought the game within a month or two of Shrapnel offering it). So your game should be relatively safe.

Thanks for all the advise, but I allways zap all of my background jobs before starting to play SE4. My Last RCE was drone related but the Last patch seemed to fix that problem. I have seen the fighter RCE for a while now (pre gold) and it is getting better with each patch. I was under the impression that the fighter RCE was a single bug, guess not.

The only RCEs I've gotten since Gold was released were caused by my own mistake in trying to mod something.

I honestly can't remember how long ago my Last pre-Gold RCE was; I've never gotten anywhere near the number some other people have.

I haven't gotten any RCE's since January/February 2001 (except in the B5 mod but that don't count...yet since it is design & testing stage)...
