Missing Warp Points

Submitted by lwmweb on Sun, 2007-05-27 18:20. Space Empires V General

I was playing a game in which I had yet to meet an opponent. I explored about 1/3 of the area and ran out of Warp points.

The AI may have closed all of them so how do you open a warp point to a system whose name you do not know?

Or is this the end of the game?

Did you have the map set to "All Warp Points Connected"? If not then the rest of the map is disconected from the part you have explored, so all you have to do is build a ship capable of opening a warp point, then open one.

Sorry

Yes I did. that is how I explored 1/3 of map. Can you open a warp point to an area where you do not know the system names?

When you use the component that opens a warp point, you're given a list of systems to send it to, and this list includes every system within range, regardless of whether you've visited there or not.

So yes, you can open a warp point to a system you'd otherwise be locked away from. In fact, this is (I believe) the only way that a new warp point would ever open - I could be wrong but I kinda doubt that the computer players ever open warp points.

You are right...at least for now, the AI is not yet instructed to open warp points or use any of that type of tech.
