I'm also interested in a status as I have PBM game that it is at a standstill due to file version issues between the host and the players and we were hoping that everyone upgrading to 19g would resolve it.

We all want this new update but putting pressure on the Captain will only lead to more errors. It is absolutely amazing the amount of work this guy has put into the SE5 community. Lets face it he is only human. Unless anyone knows different?

Yes, we know that, and no one is putting pressure on him. I was asking because he mentioned it would be out that day. If not then fine, there is no need to be defensive.

No worries. The prodding is useful!
Need to look into the resource conversion minister issue that was reported and then that's it for this version.

If it gets too annoying, just use the magic words any mad scientist would use:

Perhaps Kwok was watching the Canadian men's team beat Sweden in the semi final of the mens curling. I am sure the additions will be available eventually

Does this an end to sharing of colonization technology through diplomacy? If so, awesomez.

Version v1.19g has finally been posted. Delayed in part by hockey and maybe a wee bit of curling.
---
The change to Colony Techs should only allow them to be exchanged in treaties if the unique and racial treaty element for technology sharing is selected.

It does not, however, prevent a 'manual' trade of items, only automatic trade by treaty is stopped.
So you Can still trade 'Ice' for 'Gas', or 'Ice' for '3 lvls of ship construction and 200k of minerals'.
This is a Wonderful change.
For those that want to prevent that trade Completely, that is an easy mod. Ask Ender would be my suggestion, if you can't find the pages about it here (but you should be able to). Search Racial Colonization.

| Posted: Thu Mar 04, 2010 11:39 am Post subject: Robotoid Facilities |
|
|
The single player AI seems to like building Robotoid facilities prior to (often even without) spaceyards. My current game is a team AI, 8 vs 1, (started under 1.19f, now 1.19g); I have finally begun to catch up to their numerical advantage, and am finally on the offensive. I have found MANY fully developed AI colonies where there is a RF but no SY (on planet or in orbit).
As far as I can tell (reading the facilities data file and VERY limited testing) you need a spaceyard to take advantage of Robotoids.
One of my new colony building strategies (on a medium+ planet) is to build SY (and RF once available), build up the rest of the facilities using the faster construction rates, then scrap the SY/RF at the end and squeeze out a couple more resource facilities. Possibly the AI is doing the same, but is only scrapping the SY?
Although that still wouldn't explain the tiny/airless (room for only one facility) that had a RF...
Or am I missing something?

The AI scripts do specify that Robotoid Factories should only be built on planets with a SY present, or a System Robotoid Factory if there is 3 or more SYs in the system. I did a quick check with some of my debug scripts I have on hand and saw a few instances where Robotoids existed without a SY. I'll have to investigate how this might be happening though.

the organic weapon platforms[ in ground combat] are regenerating hull structure at a ridiculous rate it took 15 well armed small troops[each had 3 lvl 2 ground cannons] nearly 2mins just for about 300 hull structure?!
