Inaccurate intel?

Huh? How is this possible? Did the planet have troops in the build queue that were finished at the same time you captured the planet or something? I have never heard of this happening before.

It's the Proportions mod, if that helps..what I got was these ground combat Messages:

4 stalemates with me attacking
1 we have won
1 the sergetti are attacking, stalemate

I checked the AI's log report, and 6 troops were constructed during the turn. However, it has *10* of those troops on the planet, so it can't be just that unless..wait, there's a troop transport in orbit. Checking the replay, it ran for the corner as my ships approached. They unloaded their troops, then it approached and ran for the corner again. So that explains that I guess.

Ok, so the troops he built were actually from the turn before probably, since construction happens after combat. That does make sense then.

Does intel show cargo on the planet? Not just facilities?

Rutha: it specificlly said "no cargo" in the intelligence report.

No, he said they were dropped by the AI after they player's troops took the planet, during the same combat.

I don't know about the false cargo intel report though - sounds like a good one to ask Malfador to double-check.
