Kinda throws off the usefulness of the firepower display though don't you think?

I think the firepower formula accomplishes that quite handily already.

There's probably something funny with the "mobile" part of that filter if it's doing that.

Why are a couple of the waves from my latest Exo not attacking and instead sitting outside my planet as threat?

Are you sure they're really part of the exo, and if so is it possible you killed the lead ship?  Without a lead ship they become a lot more like  normal threat.

Unless groups of high mark ships spawn with Spirecraft and fly at high speed to my planets in any other way...

I did not kill the lead ships of those groups. They are sitting in the middle there actually.

Since they wouldn't be baited I had to take my fleet through. Started with 1136. Ended with 856. The fight took about 15 seconds.

Save (before I killed everything) attached.

What is it about screenshots like this that I find so amusing?



(Also, this was a Counterattack wave that I forgot about and lost a command station to before I was able to pull some fleet assets to defend with. I kinda freaked out for bit there heh.)

Cmon, Keith, the appropriate response is clearly evil laughter. Followed by implementing eyes that actively try to kill the humans.

This happens to me, too. Sometimes their lead ship came through and got instagibbed, other times they all just sat their, exo-logic notwithstanding.

New high score!



Also, state of the Galaxy:



P8's are Advanced Factories, P9's ARS's, and P6's Data centers. Still looking for the AI Homeworlds. Should be easier once I push up into those neutral planets and put down my fifth city. (Waiting on the current Exo before I do that.)

If that bounding box really does contain 1000+ sentinel frigates, it shouldn't give a number, it should just say "DOOM".

Oh, then it doesn't have to use all caps, "Doom" will do.
