Does "Analyze" work? |
I just analized a ship with Colonize Gas and the exptected result was none.
Well that stinks.
We have waited all this time for ship captures and it does nothing for us.
Well, it *DOES* let you ram
Well, it *DOES* let you ram them into the other enemy ships.
Yes, But!
I was going for the command raid. Capture the enemy Cruser when I have Frigates and get a jump start.

This did work for me in the 1.13 patch. I have not tried it with the latest patch.

Perhaps it's just my warped (and somewhat pornographic) sense of humour, but "Analize" is quite probably the funniest mispelling I've ever seen.

Analizing starships is just a bad idea, period. The plasma burns alone will put you out of commission for a week, and don't even get me started on the effects of a contaminated exhaust port.
Suction feet are not to be trifled with!
Analyze and Balance mod
Well I have 1.17 and tried it with Balance Mod 98 and Balance Mod 99 and nothing with either. So I don;t know if it's the latest patch or the balance mod.
yea ahhh, BM should not make
yea ahhh, BM should not make any diference.

Broken Analyze
So let me get this right. After fixing ship capture. The broke Analyze, the only thing that made ship capture useful.
First, can you fix
First, can you fix components from a captured ship that you do not have the tech for? I don't think you should be able to. Second, can you analize damaded components? I think you should only get a portion of the research points needed for that component. For examlpe, it cost 1000 RP to get componet X, lvl Y. Componet X is 50% damaged so you would receive 500 pts torwards its research.
Also, how do you expect the
Also, how do you expect the game to deal with components with weird tech requirements, like "phased energy weapons level 2 OR (phased energy weapons level 1 AND particle emissions level 3) gives phased polaron beam level 2"? I know the stock game doesn't have those, but maybe Aaron just never got around to figuring that out himself and left the feature on his to-do list... :-/

Game over, boys! 
Maybe it should work
I would like it to just do somthing. Maybe that guy who used it with the 1.13 patch can tell us what it did.
And who do we e-mail with this bug?
What I did/Happened in 1.13
I simply moved the captured ship (captured via allegiance subverter) to a planet with a shipyard and used the analyze ability. It gave me some techs from the components on the ship which I had not already researched. Been too busy to try this with the new patch. It may be broken now or random as to the result of using Analyze?
I've analyzed many ships
I've analyzed many ships with no success. Ones with and without damage componants.. I've also done ones with techs just in my grasp like regular armor. Its definately broken.
Looks like its a 1.17 issue
So how do we let the developers know that this is broken in 1.17? Anyone know the e-mail?
Re: Does "Analyze" work?
It worked for me before the last patch (stock) and I got lots of good techs, I havent tried it again and Im now usin BM...
Anyone els having the same issues or know whats up and can spread some light on the subject

Re: Does "Analyze" work?
How come threads this old don't get deleted???
Re: Does "Analyze" work?

like myself.
Re: Does "Analyze" work?
Depending on how much traffic a forum gets, and how much storage the owners can spare, some forums don't autoprune anything. I've seen thread necromancers on other boards bring back five year old threads just for the sake of nostalgia.

Re: Does "Analyze" work?
Should be able to bring back any old thread if the information is relevent to the present. This also prevents multiple posts on the same topic. However, I also understand Capt Kwok's point. 
Good question
Just did the same thing myself. No result;
However the ship in question had undamaged supply level 3 component; i only have supply level 1. I also got no result from the analyse !!!
