*** CLOSED BETA UPDATES & DISCUSSION/BUG REPORTS V ***

here is the agile flyer shot

 

Accuracy just encountered today. (Greatwing +5% accuracy)During one turn 1 missile 73% miss, 3 lasers 88.odd% miss, one laser hit. Next battle/next sector. all five hit with 23.4% missile, 53.odd% laser. Bad roll, good roll??

Another Bug that can easily be reproduced. Take any Genari ship with lots of marine pods, more than 4. During your turn use all pods and weapons then while the animations are still running, move(movement points will go down). Then after moving and animations are still going, try to turn(use keys, movement points down again). You will turn in place where you are(firing point) at and when you get to where you have moved the ship will not face where it should.

-I will test this out and try reproducing it too before reporting it to the programmers. -Vesuvius

One that works, I think. In a battle with my greatwing and marine transport along for resupply, it got to hot for the transport and I told it to warp out. When it did my side lost 5 capture points.

-When a ship warps out to escape, it also counts as loss of capture points, though less, it should have been 1 capture point according to the table. -Vesuvius

 

Sector s-1916, planets in shadow.
I just checked my capt. statistics and it is not showing any station kills for me. I know that I have killed at least 4 etna and 2 Vesuvius, and 2 of the others in between(Greenland maybe).
-Good to know, that means its only reporting the spawning megastations, not the smaller ones which it should. Will send a report -Vesuvius

 

My little request is to have a key or tutorial showing what the yellow and red flashing lightning bolts mean on the galaxy map.

 

So it seems as though the scanner bug works in reverse as well. I scanned a nd spotted a Baltimore, moved closer to what should have been out of sight, ended turn and cut scanners off. Next turn hexes were lighter, however I could see the ship still. It stayed in sight until I moved out of scan range to fight another ship.

-I've seen enemy AI get confused, not see me right in front of me -- I think it indeed works in reverse. The programmer on the client side finally found the problem and fixed it, so it might reflect on the Tuesday evening update. -Vesuvius

 

Saw a old one pop up again. Just playing against Camad, me agile flyer , him orchis 3. He got 2 counter fire for my pods.

Later: Finally got my NOVA! Small issue with it, the last missile is supposed to be hotkeyed for p, however I could not get any key to work to power it down or up.

 

Yes
Also have seen counter fire work after the weapon has been fired during combat. To my advantage. Xeen saw it happen to him with me in a orchis(with plasma), he was in a nova I think. I fired my beam during combat, he fired at me during his turn, my ship countered.

 

Something funky going on at 12.

 

Same here obi. Also on mine rank 19 is blurred as well. Nice to see all these names up there, hope to encounter a few more in battle. Qapla'

Nice to fight some AI Yamato's, the cap must have been lifted.

 

I'm ranked 31st on there

 

Just found a new bug. Marine expansion is not working correctly. I have level 5, so I should be doing 10-15 crew kills, correct? just launched and killed 3.

-There is still some fixes needed with Marines, but no, crew kills would be still rolled with a chance of no success per marine. So its now 10-15 marines with a success chance, instead of 1-10. You just have bad luck lol. -Vesuvius

Sectors S-2216 and S-1620, planets in shadow.
-The shadow regions will be fixed (lightgasring skybox) all together by the artist at some point -Vesuvius

Like the accuracy info.
Showing me at 86%. Since well over 95% of the time I fire from 95% range and taking into account the times I have fought an Exeter (85% max accuracy). My accuracy should be around 90-91%. Figuring out the nova, like it better than I did. Getting at least one miss almost every salvo sometimes 2 or 3. My accuracy was 87% before I purchased it, lol.

-You just have the bad luck bug, I think you need to move from where you live, then play in the new residence, that should fix the problem -Vesuvius

 

LOL, I think it is me or where I live or something. I will get over it, I guess.

Had a weird thing happen just now, twice(two turns) during allocation, I was in the middle of redistributing power and my power settings reverted back to the last turn. I did had time to fix them again, just barely. I sorta felt like Deja vu in the matrix, lol. It was like the screen hiccupped. Again it could be my residence.

On the good side the scanner bug seems fixed, fingers crossed.

Plus key for nova is not working for that last missile.
Here are a couple of visual bugs, wrong values on weapons.

 

The info is wrong. The weapon does the correct amount of damage. I no longer use overload so standard damage plus 2 for boosts.
