Can't really play the game w/ fleet bug...

[Dizzy]

When is the fleet/ordinance interaction of stealing/losing your supplies gonna be fixed? I cant really play the game w/o fleets.

Is there a known work around? I'm not aware of too many other bugs that are game killers, but this one is preventing me from playing.

You can move muliple ships at once by selecting them all in the sector view. Only works well if they're all the same speed, though.

I have not noticed it while using the world famous balance mod.

you can, as Phoenix said, just move the ships together. Select them all, tell them to move. I've been doing this for weeks.

Or, you could design ships that don't use ordinance. There are many of them.

Not out yet, Aaron likes to release patches in bunches. The first patch included versions 1.01-1.08, for example. At least we know it's on the way.

This is what I was doing, but it "seemed" (note: subjective) that when I did this, the units moved slower and there was a little more lag than usual. Maybe excessive pathfinding. :?
