Title: Sparta's Fungicidal Chaos Skimship
Post by: bvanevery on January 15, 2018, 05:26:10 pm
Yes, Sparta is building these.  Chaos Skimships outfitted with Fungicidal tanks.  I compared the picture of the unit under development to that of a fungicidal terraformer.  These 2 little oval shaped tanks appear at the front of the skimship.  I don't know what Sparta thinks it's going to do with that.  Maybe it would work great against Isles of the Deep?  If only they were terrain.

Anyways I can't build one of these.  Interesting bug.

Sorry for the delayed response.  Somehow I didn't see the reply.  Luckily I had an old game save lying around that didn't get overwritten.

units are weirdly fungicidal
units are weirdly fungicidal

I'm seeing a similar bug today.  Official game binary, with my SMACX AI Growth mod version 1.40.  I'm not bothering to save the game since it's nonstandard that way.

At first I thought just my Super Formers all had Fungicidal Tanks put on them for free.  I was surprised when my ally Morgan gave me 3 free R-Laser Speeders this year, that also had Fungicidal Tanks on them.

I've occasionally seen a dialogue box pop up over the years, when I get Ecological Engineering, announcing that I get Fungicidal Tanks for free on appropriate units.  It's pretty nonsensical, but maybe it's some vestigial code that got turned off somewhere, and shows up as a bug.

Just noticed my Synthmetal Garrisons are also Fungicidal.  And my Police Plasma Sentinels.  Plain Scouts and Probe Teams are not.  All R-Laser Speeders are Fungicidal, not just the ones given to me by Morgan.
