Author Topic:   Hunter Algorithm Secret Possible Bug

slj_ghost posted 04-14-99 11:16 AM ET
I was playing a game when the other factions kept using probe teams to get my data, so to stop it I built the secret Hunter Seeker Algorithm which is supposed to stop all probe team incursions on all your units and cities. But 10 turns later I got a message that the Hunter Seeker Algorithm had been destroyed by a probe team. How is that possible?

The Hunter/Seeker algorithm must not have been completed. Did the movie play? (only if SP movies are on) Ten turns does sound like the legnth of time it would take to complete the Hunter-Seeker algorithm. Use the autosaves and check it out.

very well could be a sabatoge bug, but much more likely it said that the hunterseeker algorithm destroyed the probe team, as it destroys any probe team that attempts any probe actions on any of your cities or units.
