The Gold Demo: A Mixed Blessing

[Psitticine]

The demo upgrade patch is to move from 0.56 to 0.99.

I decided not to go that route myself though. I don't know exactly why (I'm not generally distrusting of patches) but I felt more secure uninstalling 0.56 and installing a fresh copy of the entire 0.99, downloaded "chunky style" since my connection kept cutting out on me before I could get the full one-file Version downloaded.

Aaaanyway, the reason I mention the fresh install is that I haven't seen the problem mentioned by Jubala with allies at all. I've only had time for one full 100-turn game so far but I had allies flanking me on two sides in that one. We were cheerfully moving through each other's turf, passing through sectors occupied by each other's forces, and so forth without any conflict occuring.

Jubala, did you happen to upgrade via the demo patch?
