End of the month

[Q]

Will thank you very much for your post. Do you know what
"5. Fixed - Allegiance Converters should not work against ships with
Master Computers."
means?

I really don't hope that you can't use anymore allegiance converters on ships where you first destroyed the master computer.
This would ruin an important part of my AI modifications and make the human player much stronger!

I hope it means that Allegiance Converters will not work until the master computer is destroyed. I think I recall a thread where someone said their ships were being converted while the master computer was functional.

Ooooo... double (or triple?) negatives...
Did you mean "I hope you can still use allegiance converters on ships where you destroyed the master computer"?

If so.. I agree

As for the eta of the next patch... I just cant wait

Sorry, trying to work and browse.
I meant I hope you cannot use the Allegiance Converter to convert a ship with a functioning Master Computer on it.

That's the way it is already (Version 1.35, just ran a confirmation test in the simulator): Allegiance converter can not convert a ship with a fuctional master computer, but if you destroy first the master computer the allegiance computer will convert the ship.
IMO that's the way it should be and remain! I would be terribly frustrated if MM removed this possibilty of the AI to convert ships of human opponents.

The reason I mentioned this is that there was a thread aearlier this month where someone had the Allegience Converter work on ships with intact master computers. The thread is called Bugs.
I agree, the converter should definately not work if the master computer is intact or else there is no defense for it.

Why should allegiance converters work on ships with master computers? There's no life support or crew quarters, therefore no crew, therefore no one to convert. It's a robotic ship.
