Re: Stealth sattelitees in simultaenous?

Oh, that's good. Puttering around dropping stealth armor-equipped satellites _will_ work then.

Stealth sattelitees in simultaenous?

Is it possible to drop a satellite with stealth armor and have it automatically stealth in simultaneous movement? I'm playing in a multiplayer game and had plans to do start bugging enemy territory,...

Re: SE5 Patch 1.13 Out

The current problem appears to be that crew simply aren't dying unless they lose life support/crew quarters. Apparently the marines are dying in combat, but the crew is invincibile.

So I'd guess...

Re: Strategy/Tips question

Plus a strategy that works now might not in a path or two due to changes to behavior, a bug you were (possibly unwittingly) exploiting being fixed, or a new bug being introduced.

Re: Surrender in SEV

Well, in Balance mod, I've got a neutral down to one planet with just one research center on it, and they're telling me "[censored] YOU, WE'LL TAKE YOU ALL ON WITH OUR KNOWLEDGE" eveyr time I demand...

Re: Scrap a facility?

Yeah, but they're presumealby made up of organics, so you should recover some when you "scrap" them. (And shouldn't you be able to adjust that in race creation to consume minerals or radioactives?)...

Re: Scrap a facility?

And population! Sometimes, you just wanted to throw them all into space in SEIV, but you had to have something with cargo capacity in space, transfer them into that, and jettison them from there. Now...

Re: Balance Mod Available for SE:V

Perhaps make PD weapons able to target fighters in ground combat as well. Possibly at reduced effectiveness so they don't kill the buildings as well.

Re: 1.08 bugs.

Has anybody else, after trying to conquer a planet with a few troops and a bunch of fighters (because the troops can't navigate to save their lives and mostly spin around in circles) had more ground...

Re: Boarding parties vs Security Teams

I'd assume the marines have several techs with them for wiring in the appropriate racial controls and reconfiguring the life support to support them once their boarding armor runs out of air, and...

If only boarding parties weren't horribly broken you could steal tons of colony ships this way! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Surrender in SEV

I've found that troop pathfinding is hit or miss, mostly miss. If they have to go past much of anything blocking them, or sometimes for no reason at all, they just freeze, or spin around in little...

Re: SE5 Demo Bug Reports

Re: SE V demo Interface

NO. Anything that gets between me and the main menu when I boot the game is BAD. I don't want to be informed that it runs best on AtiVida cards or see StrategyFirst's animated logo, I want to PLAY.

Stock AI Question: Ship Analysis?

Does the stock AI ever take ships it's captured/been traded and analyze them for the technology, and if so, at what difficulty levels?

Re: Master Computers, Combat Movement, & Boarding

That's how it's always worked for me. Form what I understand, the simulator isn't a 100% reliable indicator of what will happen in actual combat for some reason.

Re: problems with massive retrofits

Yeah, but I don't think you can get that information from inside the retrofit screen. Which makes telling if you've given any individual ship orders to retrofit or not when you're giving out more.
