TDM Modpack weirdness

[Morkilus]

Hey all, been a lurker for a while, but haven't played SEIV too much (as much as Dominions, in any case)

When either playing the Dracol (hooded guys) or facing them as an AI race, I notice their ship set and race portrait switching to some seemingly random race with every load of the game. Am I missing some files for the mod, or is this a "feature"?

Also, anybody know why my DUC-equipped ships in Simultaneous mode would circle a weapons-platformed planet firing missiles but refuse to fire on them? I believe their strategy was "optimal firing range". I checked the Strategy thread in the "n00bies" forum, but I couldn't get anything out regarding this. Except for making sure my ship type break formation, which they do.

ThankS!

The game isn't finding the shipset. Check either the stockor TDM "pictures/races" directory to see if you have the actually Drakol shipset.

In the simulator tab from the design creation menu there is a strategy button that allows you to look at the exact settings of the strategy. I suspect the ships are being told not to fire on planets.
