Starting flagship bug-infinite resources

September 4, 2007 10:34:12 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I'm not sure if anyone else has reported this(a quick search didn't find anything), but repeatedly starting and canceling the build order for the starting capital ship gives the resources required to build the ship, if it wasn't free.

To reproduce this, start a game with the flagship option, and start building a capship. Cancel the build, and you'll get the resources required for building the ship.

Yeah I noticed that too but thought I was imagining it. I built a kol, then changed my mind and built a sova, and then when I was upgrading my planet and whatnot realised I had a lot more resources than normal.

The same thing happens for upgrading planets and the such. If you buy the level one upgrade and the cost goes up for the level two upgrade (like planet improvements), you can cancel your level one upgrade, but get the level two money refunded back to you.

Oh, I have always wondered why some AIs had sooo much money in the begining of the game.
