Cool.

Does anyone have any problems with graphics?

coolness sweets.

oh hey.

DId anyone else notice that Illums got a foward damage buff?  their frontal attack is now 20% more powerfull than 1.21.

makes me wonder what other balance changes the devs snuck in there while we were not watching.

edit: nvm, was in the 1.3 changelong thread. 

Pbhead feels stupid.

Objects begin disappearing. I don't know, there is a thread by Sinperium that explains his problem. It could be unique for all I know. https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/410576

I personally have no computer, as my comp died. May it rest in pieces. So I can't see for myself if his problem exists.

Anyways, before my comp died, it did something rather similar, and I attributed that to its failing nature. (For Diplo 1.21)

Maybe it wasn't unique.

down again tonight

I can be jumping across planet with ally gates. 

good
team war no enemy drunk hahaha
give the mission the opponent

The AI build super weapons like mad now, and Really early =X 10 mins into the game and they have the super weapons? Vasari I could see, make 8 labs and get the tech, then spam the black market for credits

But TEC and Advent? All those prerequisites that quick? I smell somehtin; fishy and it ain't yo mama's feet

Basically I was on a planet, wanted to go to another one passing on a planet that had a connection with gravity well: the game marked the blue route between the starting planet and the mid one but, instead to continue to the final one, marked the route to the gravity weel, then the return to the mid planet and finally to the destination one.

The ships did not follow the marked path then, but went straightly from starting planet to the destination one crossing the mid planet without any jump to gravity well.

Hope it is clear: if not I can try to explain better the issue.

Since this hotfix I get a minidump error when the AI completes any attack planet mission I send them. This did not happen before the hotfix was released. Anyone else having this problem?

Oh, and if you are still going to update the hotfix Yarlen (which I certainly hope) please fix the upper two laser gun turrets on the Advents Relevation Class Battlecruiser cause they don't shoot(I will keep asking you to do this till it gets fixed )!!!

Alright, i'll send it right away, thanx for your reply

-I've send it

-Already got a reply from the support team, they say they are looking into it

Thanks for the huge update!

I still see the 5 second or so freeze (sporadic) when I complete a mission for AI even after hotfix. This freeze didn't exist pre-1.3. My guess is maybe the game is re-calculating possible missions after a mission is completed and that causes a delay?

The problem of AIs only bidding on you for pirates seems to be (mostly) gone after hotfix because of the AI relationship bonus nerf.

The thing is I never liked the concept of AI relationship bonus. For me it's just an AI cheat for no reason that breaks immersion. Do we even need the AI relationship bonus now that supposedly AIs can ally better? What is the purpose of a relationship system overhaul if we will still have an AI relationship bonus?  I think it should be removed because it kinda breaks the Diplomatic Victory game.

I know why it's there. I am just saying it (technically) should be unnecessary given AI players can ally with each other which is what this update attempted to achieve. AI players aren't at an inherent disadvantage compared to the human player except that they are AIs.

Extra challenge is nice but extra challenge through a cheat isn't so nice unfortunately.
