Troopdance

Submitted by eberk on Fri, 2008-01-18 03:20. Space Empires V General

Hello,

Anybody experienced a similar matter ??

In a multiplayer game I invaded an enemy homeworld with 12 troops (it seems it was defended by 5 Militia)

The next turn I got my savegame back by mail, I got the battle result where NOT A SINGLE troop had been destroyed !!

So I took a look at the combat replay and it seemed that right from the start all the enemy AND my troops were drawn to a single point on the battlefield... and when thet arrived they started spinning wildly.

So after a 30 seconds all 17 troops were doing a dance on the same point... It was a colourfull sight, some kind of caleidoscope thing...

After 3 minutes, the battle ended and would be refought the next turn !!

I asked my opponent to replay his own turn before he send the savegame back to me... And lo and behold... it worked fine this time... The troops actually fought a combat this time...

So with just changing something to the tech focus and changing something about a treaty the issue was gone...

Strange behaviour... anybody seen it ?? What caused it ??

Thanks for the input,

I've had tactical battles where most of the troops would just sit and spin instead of attacking. Sometimes they'll move and attack if I command them directly. Perhaps there is a limit as to how much can move and attack at once. Smiling
