Errors with beta 2 that I have seen

February 4, 2009 5:24:26 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

After playing the Entrenchment Beta 2 for several hours, as the TEC, here are some of the errors I've encountered:

 

1.  Once, after loading a saved game, I noticed that the Advent Starbases appeared black.

 

2.  Excluding the Vasari, Starbases don't spin unless they are engaging the enemy.  I don't know if the spinning is intended or if they are supposed to be stationary.  Also, if I zoomed in close to the starbase, I noticed it moved slightly back and forth.

 

3.  I noted several crashes for which I couldn't find a cause.

 

In addition to these errors, I feel that the Torpedo Cruisers of the TEC should be weakened slightly. 

 

Overall I am enjoying Beta 2

This happens if there are buildings too close to them. The TEC and Advent ones do rotate normally unless they get a bit blocked in.

Actully, I've found they don't spin even in a empty gravity well.

Was this with beta 2.5 or beta 2? (Beta 2.5 was only released today)

Beta 2.5

TEC Starbase does not spin until engaged.

But they never did, so i wasnt aware that was a bug

In 2.5 my starbases tend to jerk back and forth, inching one way slightly, stoping, then going the other way even when there is nothing near them.  They still turn toward enemies though.  In the prior version the TEC starbase would switch between rotating fully and jerking, haven't played TEC in 2.5 yet.  I usually put my starbases at the edge of the gravity well if that makes a difference.

Yeah, I stand corrected.. at least the Advent one jerks back and forth in 2.5 without anything near it. It's actually on that save I sent you guys from the other bug All 3 AIs picked Advent as random :/
