Update: I installed a newer version of the EveHQ application (wiped all settings) and the problem went away. I also haven't had the problem in chrome in a while.

Oh. Good point. It's free so you guys can even download it and test it yourselves: EVEHQ ( http://www.evehq.net/project-evehq/ ) To reproduce the issue: Load EVEHQ on a 2nd machine (controlled by Multiplicity) It should work even if you don't add any EVE API Keys. Switch to Plug-Ins Ribbon (Ribbon Tabs right above the Ribbon Bar) Select the Fittings plugin (this is the plugin w

I have a similar problem. Different application, but every time I switch with text on the clipboard the application freaks out as soon as I switch or interact with it. I'm not sure if it then also corrupts the clipboard but I am frequently unable to paste after the application locks up for it's 1-2 seconds. Updates: I'm certain it has to do with the clipboard. The app has multiple modules, one of which checks clipboard. App works fine as long as I don't

[quote]This is particularly amusing against AI, where a few ships can lead the AI fleet on a merry chase, largely negating them.[/quote] Oh hell yes. Just build a few colonizers and then send one in with the fleet and solo guide it all over the place. It's almost an exploit IMO.

[quote]But I simply just manually give a move order so they'll intercept, not really that hard..[/quote] I do that too, but like I said in my post... the problem I have is that the ships stop firing and instead concentrate all their effort on moving to my intended destination. If however you give the "engage target" command they'll move and fire... just in a really stupid way.

1.03 "Intercept" flight pathing isn't an actual "intercept" in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

One of the most infuriating things about fleet management is the fact that the ships never actually move to intercept. What they are actually doing is moving to follow. Moving to follow consists of always flying to where a target is "right now" and adjusting that as the target moves. Flying to intercept consists of flying towards weapons range of where you expect the target "to be" based on current target direction & speed. I'm sure everyone else has noticed that ships are practically inv

[quote]You want to know what your problem is? You've played for 40 minutes and you have TWO worlds. That's your problem.

There's no way those could have just been overtaken and destroyed by the 3 fleet magic AI alliance. No. Of course I must be some kind of retard. Thanks!

I'm not sure that's the case, although I can't rule anything out. I'm not exactly going out of my way to repeat it since I'm trying to actually play the game... not make it unplayable. On games that scroll I always pause by opening the menu (or whatever else works to freeze the side to side motion). As a side note: I hardly ever scroll this style game using edge of screen mouse shenanigans. Take a FPS though (which I also play a lot) and my mouse should technically be the equivalent of

Reply to 1.03 AI Gangs up on humans in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

No. My complaint is about the AI. If you play unlocked then for whatever reason the AI (those that have come in contact with the human player) will ignore other AI players and basically send all forces after the humanoid player. Does that make sense to you? This screenshot is from so early in the game (check the fleet ship icons) that it's fairly obvious one AI left his home systems basically defenseless to fly all the way across the system to assault the human player. The othe

Great news! 1.03 still doesn't work with Multiplicity. If I move control to the 2nd system for too long then none of the clicks work when I move control back to the Sins system. Hurray!

So with great hopes I cranked up a large map game in 1.03 with unlocked teams because by golly at some point I'd like to actually make allies. Within about 40 minutes I get this: I haven't even had time to do a 2nd mission with anyone to even get them to ceasefire percentages and yet 3 different AI players have already sent giant fleets at the 2 little worlds I have left. EDIT: YES THE AI JUST DESTROYED MY FO

Reply to AI in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Yea I agree. If you try and play anything beyond low level medium it becomes impossible within an hour of play. Seems like the AI is coded to expand until it meets another AI player, then build up massive fleets and send them all after the non-AI player. I tried a 6 player game this morning against 5 random AI players and within 1.5 hours or so I had 5 huge fleets at my borders... each with 2-3 battleships and 10-20 frigates & cruisers. It's an impossible situation.

If I pause game (open menu) then mouse to the other computer for more than 10 seconds or so then when I mouse back Sins refuses to recognize clicks or keyboard input. It still renders the mouse and I can alt-tab out of the game and use other software just fine, but Sins is ruined from that point forward. I have to force the application to close then reload from scratch to get the mouse & keyboard working again. I'd have thought that 2 stardock programs would be compatible...

I have gone back to freeware Synergy2, which while a pain to configure definitely still works. Sorry but after being a Multiplicity user for over 2 years now I can't live without the functionality and this mess with the new version is enough to make me regret paying for it.

Great. Had a friend send over a 1.10 standalone installer. Installs fine but when I go to activate it says "Invalid Product". After years of good success with Mutliplicity this is really really irritating.

Used SDC, without the archive checkbox unfortunately. The slave troubleshooting says winlogon.dll not running. portqry -local on the slave shows 30564 listening. portqry -n (IP) -e 30564 shows LISTENING. Master says "was able to connect"... and yet there's no connection. I have rebooted way too many times now.

Reply to Irritating cross-system file copy behavior. in Multiplicity Stardock Forums

Ok. I'm not right clicking though. I hit copy on one system and as soon as I hit copy the other system starts prepping. The mouse never moves off of the system that I hit copy on (how could it, it happens almost instantly...). So what could be causing it to fire almost immediately, before the mouse even moves off the file I'm copying?
