Sounds promising!

Do you know anything about a bug that stops ships moving? perhaps fixed in the next mod version?

Hey Kwok, a how about updating the empire data files so to reflect the stock government choices, so you don't hav virtually every empire using 'tyranny'?

I don't think it has to do with the modifiers so much as it does with the roleplay aspect of "tyranny".

I haven't heard of any bug where ships are stopping. Can you elaborate?

I am in a Balance mod game where every few turns, sometimes for a number of turns, ships in select systems refuse to move. The next turn they have the orders players give them but they havn't followed any of them. It is endemic to every empire in the game. We had hoped the latest patches would fix it but first new turn and it happens again. Lots of us are sending bug reports to Aaron. It may be endemic to SEV.

Edit: another odd thing I just witnessed. I was testing a new race and I suddenly owned a ship from another race I hadn't met. I thought perhaps one of my ships had been catapulted across the galaxy, but no, I gained one of their ships.

Kwok, any luck moving some of the modifiers for ship creation out to the race files?

Captain Kwok · #**937** May 20th, 2007, 11:47 AM

Simultaneous games are still quite buggy. I couldn't see what would interfere with movement other than something breaking in the turn mechanics.

No external data files yet. Although the way I've re-configured the design routine, it will be easier to implement.

Are we there yet??????

I was just about ready to post it last night when I caught a new error with the AI's fleeting of ships. I need to work out that first, but otherwise all the other changes seem to be working ok. I think the new AI designs will help out as there a bit more efficient in their use of space and make better choices for extra components.
