256 unit bug
« on: July 25, 2016, 04:31:21 PM »
I know this bug has already been discussed, but I wanted to bring it up again to see if anything could be done about it.

In a recent game, I built a large army of infantry of the same type.  Upon building the 256th unit of that type, my Military score crashed to near-0 on the Faction Superiority list and graph; as I continued to build more units of that type the list recovered but the graph did not.
The display issues wouldn't be a huge problem, but the other problem is all other factions decided to attack me when my Military score crashed, because they thought I no longer had military superiority.  So the bug had the effect of causing poor AI decisions.

This was in SMAX with scient's patch.  Perhaps it's already been fixed in Yitzi's?

* Random quote

I have often been asked: if we have traveled between the stars, why can we not launch the simplest of orbital probes? These fools fail to understand the difficulty of finding the appropriate materials on this Planet, of developing adequate power supplies, and creating the infrastructure necessary to support such an effort. In short, we have struggled under the limitations of a colonial society on a virgin planet. Until now.
