DA Extra Tiles Neutral Conquest bug!

Need fixing....

from GalCiv2 Forums
Example of the bug...

You are neutral civ after researching ethics and have researched up to terraforming tech. You invade Altaria which has a current PQ of 14 i.e. they have built soil enhancement and habitat improvement. You Conquer Altaria now the planets has PQ 17 (17 tiles) when it should have 15.

The bug adds the amount of extra potential tiles the planet could have before terraforming techs were built to its current amount. Instead of the remaining amount of tiles that could be built normally with a terraforming tech (non neutral civ).

In my beta2 game this had the result of creating huge PQ planets.

Please make sure you put DA reports in the 'Beta Reports' forum in the future, thanks.

Reported this with screen shots and saved games to [email protected] about a week ago. Forgot to write this to the forums :/ I hope this is fixed in next beta and more hopefully that will be available today

But it seems OP bug is bit different. After I selected Neutral ethic my PQ 14 planet had just 11 tiles to use. Maybe OP should post hes saved games too to the devs, just to make sure.

edit:

Hmm I think the bug does indeed have something to do with terraforming techs. I for example had researched couple terraforming techs before I choosed Neutral ethical alligment.

Sorry Kryo I did think it might be wrong forum didn't notice the beta report one.

In my game the Altarian Wisp planet which starts out as a 3 ended up being a PQ 28 somehow.

Whether it's the same bug as sam0t I don't know the bug is easy to reproduce though.
