[Bug] Phase Jumping

September 9, 2008 4:17:06 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Well I'm playing a 1 v 1 game on Derelict, I had a little raid going on the enemy Advent planet, when the AI showed up with 2 cap ships and alot more frigates than me. I was getting owned, so I retreated. My last Cobalt started to punch into Phase space but then it just kept on moving (it was moving when it created the window) and stopped right where the phase window animation is present. There were no ships behind it so it was that Cobalt which made the phase window. I've taken a few screenshots. I'm not sure if something similar has been posted before, so sorry if it has been.

Screenshots are not loading so I guess you just have to take me for my word.

Anyways thanks for a wonderful game and patch I love 1.1 beta its like an entirely new game (well sort of;))

If a Iconus Guardian uses repel while a ship is charging it's jump drive, the ship moves (often past the jump window) but it still jumps. The actual window is purely cosmetic. Of course, otherwise Guardians would be too powerful, since they could keep everyone from jumping; I don't see how they can really fix it though (barring moving the jump window with the ship, which seems a bit un neccesary).

There was no Guardians in the game yet, only 2 cap ships and a bunch of disciple vessels and ilums.

Can you link a recorded game of the behavior that you're describing nightwraith? It's difficult to infer what the problem may be from what sounds to be a complex situation.

Ok, I have uploaded them to my Skydrive Public area. There is 2 file called Derelict (ones .save and the other's .stats). Also there are 3 screenshots, Screenshot_24 through to 26. One is a clear view of the Cobalt in the phase window, another is just to show there is only an advent cap ship around (and its far away) The other is just an extra screenshot.

(Hope the link works)

As you can see in the Empire Tree there is only 2 Advent caps ships, an Ilum and my cobalt. No guardians.

 

Thank you

This is the first 1.1 beta as this happened before the 2nd beta update. Any other questions or more files just post.
