Default Re: Invasion! Mod Discussion Beta 0.40

I have started a new Invasion! PBW game. It's called Invasion! 2nd Wave. So I am looking for 9 players to come play. It should be great fun we are going to play on a small map. Compared to the first games huge 255 system map. So it should be a completely differen't game. Even if you are in the first Invasion! game you are more than welcome to play this one.

Alright I have begun an extensive AI testing game for Invasion! and here are some of the early results.

Me
Tech Levels : 51
Systems: 3
Planets: 21
Units: 0
Ships: 39
Bases: 10
Place: 1st

2nd Place AI
Tech Levels : 40
Systems: 1
Planets: 13
Units: 101
Ships: 5
Bases: 0

3rd Place AI
Tech Levels : 40
Systems: 1
Planets: 12
Units: 231
Ships: 9
Bases: 0

4th Place AI
Tech Levels : 40
Systems: 1
Planets: 12
Units: 231
Ships: 7
Bases: 0

5th Place AI
Tech Levels : 40
Systems: 1
Planets: 10
Units: 106
Ships: 8
Bases: 0

So this shows that the current Invasion! AI still colonizes planets but not as fast as it should. So if you want to play Invasion! Singleplayer the AI is still operable but it will not challange anyone but the most novice players even if it is set on hard will full bonus.

Default Re: Invasion! Mod Discussion Beta 0.40

i have found another bug.

While my scouts are finally moving with speed 3, i tried to construct a tiny carrier, which has a max engine setting of 2, again. So i decided to put one level 3 engine in it, and another level 3 reactor. In the design screen it reads "3 movement points" (1 from engine, 2 bonus from reactor), but now that the carrier is ready it can only move at speed ONE. I understand you want to slow down the game (somehow), but carriers / ships which move with speed 1 ?! I must have missed something again.
