Master Computers

I thing Master Computers are either too big or use too much resources. I'd like to put them on smaller ships like escorts, frigates, destroyers, and light cruisers, but their size and resource cost make putting on the normal control components a wiser choice. Right now Master Computers only have any real benefit when put on much larger ships.

I think that's the point...

You could always go into Components.txt and fiddle with the numbers a bit.

Or if you face a Psychic race. They are not suppose to be able to use the Alligence Converter on a Master Computer. I think they can right now but this is to be fixed in the next patch.

Yea that's cool. In my very first game in the demo one of my master-computer-controlled destoryers somehow defected! That ship was an experimental electronic warfare ship armed with a lot of computer virus packs (what ever they are called), and it wrecked havoc on MY OWN fleet! Oh well, at least I know it worked... :-(

Can someone confirm if this is a problem in 1.35 and report to Malfador if it is, please?

I thought this was fixed a while ago, but maybe I just got lucky when I tried it.

It's listed as a fix in the upcoming patch. Scroll down a bit to find it.
