2 Problems: Loading empires and remote recovering of units

Submitted by Zarah Neander on Thu, 2007-03-01 07:36. Space Empires V FAQs

Hi all,

1) I can't load an empire once I've saved it from within a game. SEV complains that 'have more research points spend than are allowed by the game setup'. Weird thing that I didn't fiddle with the tech points at all. I can set the 'research points for new players' to 500000, load the race, reset the research points but then all my designs are gone for good. What I'm missing?

2) Okay, 'drop cargo remotely' is broken, but what about 'recover units remotely'? It seems, for launching, I have to target one hex behind the real target hex. Same thing for 'recover remotely' though the ship only picks up a fraction of the units and can't be bothered anymore to pick up more. Cargo space is not the problem. Is it broken or do I miss something?

Thanks in advance
Pia Kraft

Anyway, I uninstalled, frustration tolerance exceeded...

After I traded ice colonization the game won't let me colonize ice planets (which worked 2 turns b4).

maybe I come back with version 9.02. maybe not. 30$ down the drain..

Way to weird... never happened before.
I hear they will release 1.30 soon. You could wait for it. This game is worth it.

What's your PC setup?

A bit of an over reaction there and I though I was fiery Smiling!!!

reasons the game wont let you colonise are either you have a treaty which stops it (any non agresion clause exept "can colonise each others systems" will do this or you where trying to colonise and ice planet with a colony ship with an other type of coloniser on it. Trading the tech just gives you the ability to build coleny ships which can colonise the new world type it dosent allow you curent ships to do that unless you refit them.

Lol, it's common for me to un/re-install a game several times. And I already reinstalled.

No, I have the tech, I have the appropriate ice-colonizer and SEV won't let me colonize even in my home system. Also all ice planets disappeared from the 'planets' tab in the whole galaxy, and they were there 2 turns b4, cause I intended to grab a ruin. It might be a bug with balance mod though.

Anyways, thanks for your response & I apologize for hijacking my own thread. So back to my orginal question: Why can't I load a race, which I saved ingame? Constantly redesigning all layouts might lead to my next uninstall session:)

Thanks
Pia Kraft
