My destoryer is screwed

Submitted by Razgriz on Sun, 2006-10-22 15:57. Space Empires V General

I've been playing a game for quite a bit and early in the game an enemy empire managed to sabatage my destroyer design at level three.. It shows that I have -10 million research points before it levels. its been like that for around five years in game. It seems kind of like a bug to me. I've tried working my way around it by buying light cruiser techs from other empires but even when I do manage to do that it doesn't work. Im currently sending a fleet of boarding parties to capture a light cruiser and hope that if I dismantle it I can obtain that tech.. though I think its highly doubtful it would work.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

Overpowered Intelligence

This is a known problem with how the Sabatoge Research Intelligence projects work. They take off 10 million points, even way down into the negatives, like what happened with you. I think the way it should work normally is to either take the reasearch down to 0 points, or in debt as many points as the tech costs.

In the demo, you could type ~, research, ~ to give yourself 100,000 research points. To fix your current game, you could do that about 100 times and then go 1 turn with 100% research on destroyers to counter it.

Thanks, your my hero. By

Thanks, your my hero. By the way I just ran into another problem... And it could be the reason why the game sometimes locks up while processing other empire moves. I was attacked by a rather large fleet. Mostly carriers with a bunch of fighters. After about thirty seconds into the fight everyone on the map froze except for a few ships which kept retreating. The battle went up to thirteen minutes before I finally turned off SEV. Im not sure if this is the place for this, but it might be worth a look at.

It may be worth looking at. I would post to the forum named above.
