I have a big problem in the current version, which is propably a bug. I'm playing against an experimentalist ai and as soon as there is one single microparasite present at a system, ALL ai ships on this planet seem to have reclamation ability (including even guardians). At least suddenly every ship of my fleet that is killed goes over to the ai when killed (with full health by the way) although the microparasite is miles away and never shot on any of these ships itself. This is extremly annoying and makes playing impossible.
Welcome to the forums :)  Could you post a save where I can reproduce this?

FYI, to anyone wondering about the timing of the next AIW update: it is in progress, but I'm taking time to work on something I've been wanting to do for a while but takes more time than the stuff I've been doing lately that easily fits into my available non-AVWW time.  Hopefully it will be ready for release on the 9th or sometime later that week, but we'll see :)

  • If you're not drunk you're doing it wrong.

That sounds tasty promising. :)

Just a minor thing, keith, not worth submitting a mantis report over.

Mine regeneration time isn't listed in the info for the three mines, and the regeneration amount is still at 360/s.

Mind taking a squiz?

Say, how close are we to that next patch, guys? Gettin' kinda cold out here, and one of my stations is parked right next to a Happy Li'l Electro-Silo.

I wouldn't expect a new patch for at least another week. Keith said he was working on something and hoping he could get it out the 9th or somewhere later that week. So we'll see =)

There isn't a Monday coming up that is a 9th to my knowledge.  ;)  You mean the 7th?

No, he means the 9th.
There was a Zenith Time Manipulator experiment that went awry somewhere, completely desynching his timeframe from the rest of the worlds.
Should resolve itself eventually, but not before whatever is considered Monday :P

Monday July 9th 2012.

Although if the small thing he is doing is going to take over 2 months, I suggest that he release a small patch for the warhead bug.

It's actually Monday, December 9th 2013, sorry.  It's really a small feature though!
