Not to be overly negative or anything but if FRD isn't working then I don't want to even install the beta  :o

FRD is my breadwinner, I'm a stay at home parent while FRD does all my busywork  :P

That's understandable, I don't mind; I think I've got the bug isolated now.  It wasn't actually the throttles at all, which explains why 3.095 didn't fix it.

Any chance of the fix going live in the next couple of hours? :P I'd love to give it a go during my lunch hour game... :)

Chris is crunched with Tidalis stuff and he'd need to do the push, but I should have a fix soon, fwiw.

If you get it in, I can push it out real quick.

Fix is committed:

- fixed a bug from previous versions where a ship could get "stuck" with an empty target list because they were insisting on using the "in-range" list instead of the "out-of-range" list, despite the fact that the in-range list was empty.

You guys are awesome! I completely understand that you're really busy today, so I doubly appreciate it :)

I'm looking forward to giving Tidalis a go also!

Yea, this is the sort of bug that doesn't tend to show up on the first battle of a group in the game (i.e. most of my tests), and doesn't show up in large battles where the target lists are longer than 50, but when it shows up it totally breaks FRD, I'm surprised you guys were able to endure it at all ;)

...and now the repository host is temporarily unavailable.  Lovely.  I think it does that during backup or something, because it's only for a couple of minutes at a time.  Blah.

The binary ninjas strike again.

Edit: though, fwiw, svn-backup is a VERY good time to not take any activity.
