Hi Austen,
I haven't played the new map yet, but I wanted to ask you if you tried ending a
turn and seeing how long the computer takes to move everything. What I am
saying is that I don't think these maps are able to be really enjoyed. I find
myself constantly scaling back things just to make the enemy turn go at a
reasonable level.
One thing I did notice myself was that ships with summoning skills, for
instance launch fighter, tend to launch everything they have first. Then the
ship just sits there and does not move after that, while the launched units
seem to do more or less what they are intended. The carrier of the fighters
will not move again however. I tried to tempt it into chasing my heavy cruiser,
but nothing. it will attack if it is in range, but it will never move. I took
away the fighter launch skill...and the klingons started moving as one would
expect. It is almost like the AI assumes that anything creating another unit
via summons must be some unmovable object.

well, i've found some thing sout.
i made a fifty by 30 map, and it took almost 45 minutes to fill it so
the block fill would be great d.
i've noticed that structures don't regenerate points that are
regenerting for all like actions. they have minutes like the other
unit, but once they've used them they don't regen, even if they use
half the points, they only have the other half left there next turn.
this realy bothered me as the goldmine couldn't give my miner gold as
it was stopped in time rofl.
i made a pretty cool map and its only a fraction of the size i'm
planning on making.
the other problem i found is enemy units using shields more than once,
is there a flag eventualy that tells it to use the skill only once per
turn d.
i've also still run in to ships attacking units for integrity that
don't have it, so i don't think thats totaly fixed yet.
otherwise i'm loving it, but i've had to put in planets like islands
wich looks weird d.
anyway keep it up hope some kenew stuff comes soon d.
