New patch scheduled for the 20th

Submitted by Shakerfish on Wed, 2006-11-15 13:57. Space Empires V General

I just got an e-mail from Aaron stating there is another patch scheduled for the 20th. He says... Quote.

“We’ll be releasing the next patch on Nov. 20th. It should fix both of these problems.

Aaron”

The two problems I had e-mail them about was excessive AI turn time and the endless battle issue. I’m assuming the AI player turn hang issue is addressed as well.

That is some good news. I hope he takes a look at the Alliance Chamber crash also. I think it prevents me from saving the game.

Nice to know that things are going well. I hope that the new patch kills the winging. If for no other reason that I am old and tired and don’t have time to hunt down and kill all the wingers in person

Winger

Submitted by Kalin on Wed, 2006-11-15 18:04.

A "Winger" as far as I can tell is someone who only plays on one side of the field. This is usually in a sport, like soccer or hockey.

As for what evilginger means, I can only surmise that he's talking about:

1. Chasing after a group of ships that stays away from close combat and flee ASAP (IE: they are on the wing of the battlefield, and runs). In which case I don't believe the patch will fix. This has a lot to do with ship strategies and not a bug. The only way to get these guys is to build some advance fighters to cut them down before they have a chance to run (AKA, "Meet the newests addition to our fleet, the battle carrier 'Sweeping Broom'").

2. Hunting down remaining units/ships of an empire after you wiped them out (IE: they are on the wing of their empire, and just out of your path of destruction). In which case, I hope the patch fixes, because there's really no reason for them to be there. Unless of course there's a bunch of remote miner somewhere maintaining a fleet of troops trying to retake some worlds (It would make for some interesting game play at least).

Winger

Submitted by evilginger on Wed, 2006-11-15 18:44.

A bit off topic but it’s from the colloquial English to Winge (alt Whinge), meaning to complain to grizle to deride undeservedly CF Australian usage "Winging Pom". Not Winger which is a sporting position in both forms of football

Oh... lol. You meant killing

Submitted by Kalin on Wed, 2006-11-15 18:56.

Oh... lol. You meant killing THOSE... yeah, I hope the patch fixes that too... XD

PS: I've actually heard of it used like that before, just didn't think about it in this particular context for some reason ^_^;;;
