Default Re: Is This A BUG???

It was mentioned it might have been a supply problem. I checked to be sure, and the fleet had used up all of its supplys. RED LINED.

This might have been the issue. For some reason the fleet had a full load of supplies, but after combat, (I ran it again) the fleet was out of supplies.

So ya, that might have been the cause. I still anhilited most of their ships.

Sounds like supply usage for those PPB's might have been increased... are you using a mod?

That was the first thing I checked. No, supply usage is set to 0.

I am going to check the other components later to see what the supply usage is.

Another question I have is:

Does any one know what determines "Maintenance" cost in the Txt Files? I don't believe it is the cost of Minerals or other, but something else. Then again I could be wrong.

I believe the line in "settings.txt" is:

Empire Starting Percent Maint Cost := 25

and the maintenance for a ship is 25% of the all 3 resources.
