Re: Known Bugs
4 bugs I found using unmodded 1.91:
1. I have animation turned on for system ship movement in an early game, and while the ship was still flying, I thought I could change my mind and order it to do something once it arrived at its destination. As it was flying I clicked for it to load something, except instead I got a memory error or some other error which made all my menu buttons usless afterwards and I had to restart the game. It only happened twice when I was ordering ships and pressing buttons during their animated system movements.
2. I can't really remember details, but I seem to have the oddest situations when saving my games and then reloading them. I do remember one where I saved a game after setting my research queue, then ending turn after turn after turn (about 5 turns) to see what the new tech was like. Then I reloaded my saved game, only to realize that those techs were now "discovered" in my saved game.
3. I realized early that I can exploit the AI by demanding gifts from weaker empires like the Phong and EEE. I was 2-3 times their score, and it was like taking candy from a baby. I tested it out, and realized I could ask for all their techs, relations, maps, planets, all in one fell swoop, ending their existence. Since "surrender by gifting" seems a little low, I've let them exist... for now. Perhaps its not a bug, and perhaps it has a meaning of a threat behind it ("hey, i'm bigger than you, so give me what I want or else...")
4. I receied a gift of a destroyer from the Phong, and it ran of gas halfway into my sector headed for my base space yard, moving at 1 sector per turn. So I grab a fully loaded tanker ship and fleet it up with the unit. The fleet has half supplies, but it still only moves 1 sector per turn. The destroyer still shows empty. This only happens when I have units that run out of gas entirely, as other Phong destroyers I've accepted were 1 turn short of running out of gas, and they fleeted up fine with my tankers and kept their full movement.
