[Bug] Double Cross map w/QuickStart

doubled start!

March 29, 2009 7:40:35 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Some of the homeworlds will incorrectly start with double factories and ships!  In other words; 2 Frig factories, 2 CapShip factories, and 4 scouts & 4 constructors!  What's especially unfair is: some teams will get the extras while others won't.  Its gotta be a bug.  I seriously doubt this was intentional. 

(PS.  Just start an Entrenchment game on the Double Cross medium sized map, with Quick Start enabled, and check to see what everyone gets at the start.  Note, you can immediately Surrender, then choose Keep Playing to get a quick overview of what everyone owns),

As an aside, developers plz add Quick Start to vanilla Sins!  That's the main reason I play Entrenchment online now.  I actually don't like the longer Entrenchment games, but distain the belabored optionless vanilla Sins' starts now.

I just discovered that the start of Triumvirate is also bugged, when using Quickstart.  So, I suppose there others that are bugged too, (I haven't played them all lately).

It too, started with twice as many ships and structures in the homeworld as there should be (when u use quickstart).

I don't think it would be hard to add.  In fact, I've noted that if you host an Entrenchment game with quickstart, and then start a vanilla game without changing settings, it will include quickstart!
