Ally empires blocking warp point |
As you see from the title, i am blocked by an allies satellites from entering a warp point. I tried to blow them away but my ships won't fire at the sats. We have a non-aggression pact, but 2 turns ago i just shot up his destroyer for entering thru one of my warp points. How do i solve this? Please, this is not the first time something like this has happened. Any help would be aprecciated. Also, which tech do i have to develop that gives me the ability to mine asteriod fields. And another question (while I have everyone's attention) what happens if you play a game without warp points? Do you have to develop that tech and if so, how?
thanx,
ds
Re: Ally empires blocking warp point
What exactly is happening? Are you entering combat? Perhaps your ships do not have weapons that can target satellites. Are you just giving your ships movement orders (i.e. move to this system) or are you manually ordering them to go through the warp point. I know of nothing that should stop a manual warp order but if you are just giving movement orders your ships will not go through that warp point if there other enemy ships in their path or if the destination system is marked as a system to avoid.
Stellar manipulation tech will eventually give you the ability to open/close warp points but it is very expensive and there is no point in starting a no warp point game without using the all tech option.

An allies satelites should not block your ships.. You should be able to move just through them. That's the point of the non agression?

Re: Ally empires blocking warp point
No, Myrath, because "non agression" could be (and would in this case) only the pact's name. For not starting combat with allies, you must check the option when sending the pact. You can choose 3 option:
1) not combat in neutral empire (those without colony of the two empire)
2) not combat anywere
3) allow colonizing in each other territory
Down2xyro, if it's only a little satellite... ram it!

The treaty names are irrelevant. You could name them Tom, Dick, or Harry for all it matters. I prefer "Bow Before Me".

I prefer: The Noob Hunters Costitution
or BrAiNZzz Consortium!
Re: Ally empires blocking warp point
Which clause do you have in the Non-aggression pact? There was also a bug that sometimes made ally empires fire on each other that is fixed in the forthcoming patch.
Research the resource extraction technologies to uncover remote mining components. I think it might be level 10 in stock.
