*** BETA UnKnown Issues *** UPDATED 11:20 am PST 3/13

from Sins Forums

Yarlen started a Known Beta Issues but I notice there are still some issues not listed.

Yarlen: any news when the beta patch will come out. Weekly?

Send replays, screen shots and saved games to [email protected]

Anyone who post any issues not listed, post them I will update list.

 

1. Culture not working.  Played 2 games where the guy lost because his culture was not working. Despite me being able to see his culture spread. He was not able block mine thus he lost all his planets due to culture. [Emailed replay]

2. Ships and structures do not show up graphically but are listed in the tree. This differs from the ships not show up entirely as you can still control and move the ship but at I would say 2/3 zoom in these things disappear. [Emailed replay]

3. Both Manually and Autosaved game crash instantly after loading. Affects only some games.

4. Colony ship does not auto colony after it sits idle to a planet it could not colonize initially. [Emailed saved game]

5. The file called "manual_rebellion.pdf" is in fact the Trinity manual [acknowledge by Yarlen]

I would like to add about what I have seen from Culture.  I have seen this happen in several games now that once you have destroyed a planet that the AI owned. the Culture is not retracting as it should be.  This is something that should be looked at.  I have mt culture pushing out and it seems to be at a stalemate.  even though the AI had no planets close buy with media centers.  Also, I recall that a fleet is supposed to help detract the enemies influence to a planet when a fleet is present. that too does not seem to be working.


 

Its only cap ships that can push back culture.

Do you have saved games that show you losing planets due to culture even though you have culture structures?

 

I certainly do, and yes I know its cap-ships and yes its defiantly broken.  hasn't anyone else noticed this not working correctly?

how many culture stations?  did you actually have culture radiating from your planets when you lost it? or did he put 9 culture stations on a desert planet while researching all the culture upgrades and crush your pathetic single broadcast center defence?

First notice the bug when I had two culture stations.

2nd time it happened I only had 1 and he had 1 but he still lost. He even had his cap ship sit at his hw.

I played me vs 9 vicious 

Game run fine but when I send my fleet to the sun game started lagging badly. When ships left suns gravity well game went to "normal".

On another note when I build 2 sb in same grav well AI never attacked that grav well.... And mostly was jumping from 1 planet to another with all his ships while titans rarely left home planet.

1. The no sc hold I think is a change in feature and not a bug. You make them hold but as soon as they attack something they start to move.

2. Ships disappearing was been reported

3. Colony ships not auto colonizing after turning off auto colony and back again I have seen. Will  list that one.

4. Culture bug has been reported

The truce with rogues prevents you from placing bounty on players with that Research active is probably why. This is an intended feature of the game.

that may be related to the fact that you are playing against rebel tec AI who have truce researched with pirates

-sniping targets

-maximaize dps

-allure fighters to flak

-avoid phasic trap

 

and many more

woud be sad if thats gone

Does anybody have this bug ?

When you right click on the Titan Ability Management icon to enable auto-leveling it causes an immediate mini-dump.

Yeah it was but I believed it was an exploit they fixed. Yarlen can chime in on that.  Fighters and corvettes can be place on hold but as soon as they attack something they move like sc.

it dont waypoint correct or takes only every second klick from your mouse...that annoys me for very long time and i have to wapoint now with a lot of patience ..maybe its possible to fix that too ? :O

Reply #45 from Sins Forums Top

Captured artifact world (timer starts)...starbase with aux. government...nova hit...planet down to 0 health (timer resets).

lol that may be your connection.  Fast clicks like that for me have worked depending on my connection.  They may be just a feature request to cache all clicks, which the game does somewhat to a certain degree already.

hmm iam used to sc2 waypointing , where you see instant the waypoint with the line if you give a chain of movmentcommands.

In sins i have a delayed showing of waypoints and if iam doing it that fast like in sc2 i got only every second klick counted.

You think its rly my connection   :annoyed:     my  latency average 70 .

 but maybe thats the reason dont knew

I was not able to get a save game, severely crunched for time. Here is a screenshot from earlier though. This is what I'm talking about. I have never seen these used yet?
