BM 1.10 Militia Bug |
In fresh BM 1.10 game AI colonized planet just near my homeworld, so i invaded it with around 40 troops.
It had no troops in cargo.
When combat started, there were 300 spartams, ehm enemy troops. So they defeated my invasion attempt. (i destroyed around 40 of their troops)
I of course can build multiple troop transports and full them, with troops, but all of that for one FRESH colony? And give it time to build defenses/be vulnerable to attack when building invasion fleet?
btw. If i could colonize this planet, i would simply glass it, one frigate is enough.
2 build turns for glassing, and around 20 for invasion is realy bad.

Re: BM 1.10 Militia Bug
I just got your Sparta reference -- I wish this 300 militia bug had been harder to fix just so we could all be referring to it as the "Spartan bug."




Re: BM 1.10 Militia Bug
I just looked in the BM settings.txt file for the militia settings. The first one creates 300 troops if the population is less than 64,000. So all planets will be full of Spartans.
Flipping this list should fix it. I think it was originally this order because of a similar bug in 1.44.
