Author Topic:   Possible Bug?

I was horrified to realize recently that command centers and facilities of this type also improve the morale of probe teams. It really is odd, given that certain techs in the game improve the morale of probe teams. I figured that this was the only way to improve their morale (besides using Fundy).
Is this a bug? Probe teams are not military units, so according to the documentation, they should not receive the morale upgrade of base facilities. It is a shame that this is not the case-- using Fundy becomes nearly useless in the midgame.
PS-- Ok, so I didn't quite quit these boards, but I've cut down a good deal at least.

Bioenhancement centres should improve probe team morale - they effect all units built at the base. I think your right comand centres should only affect proper military units.
As for Fundamentalist probes being nasty - try a Spartan fundamentalist probe team - Very Nasty
Nice to see you back again

I don't know if it's a bug or not, but it also affects formers. The first time I realized it my new former had an extra move. It was elite!
