Re: .99 Demo Code = Shipped Code?
I noticed the problem in every simul moves game I played. I haven't done any by email, but my friend Someone3x7 and I have played a few simul games over the network. I usualy lug my machine to his place for these weekend slugfests. Durring our simul games, no message or treaty sent by either of us was ever seen or replied to. AI offers were sometimes received, but the AI stayed aggressive even after we accepted.
One neutral empire destroyed TWELVE cruisers of mine. Sheilds V, phased polaron V, repulser beam II. Every ship destroyed, no enemy damage taken. He was useing two light cruisers with anti proton beam III.
I ran the simulator useing the exact same set up. Again and again it showed that my fleet should have wiped the AI out in nothing flat and with no losses.
I sent annother fleet, and was wiped out by a couple of fighters on the homeworld.
I built a fleet of six ships, and declared war on the AI before I entered his homeworld sector. He was wiped out, and I took no damage.
The only explination I can see is that my ships were not shooting back because we had a treaty, and that his were fireing away because he didn't know we had a treaty.
On an unrelated note, annother bug we ran into was neutral ships leaving their home sector. Sometimes their combat ships would follow a target thru a wormhole, and then procede to wipe out anything they could in the target system.
