BUG - Speed characterist doesn't work

March 28, 2003 2:25 AM from

Subject says it all, speed characteristic of +2 fails to work, which sucks given that I spent 8 points for it.

Works fine for me. Note that the game does NOT "round up". So to get a Move=2 ship (Colony, Surveyor) upgraded to Move=3, you need to spend 5 points (equalling 50%) on the ability. Spend 4 points and it'll stay at move=2.

2 x 1.5 = 3.0 = you get move of 3
2 x 1.4 = 2.8 = move score REMAINS at 2

It looks like that's just how its supposed to be.

The poster has the bonus pack, konfuzed666+1

ramses01 -- Yeah, I noticed this too. Thought it would be nice to zip around real fast, but it didn't work and I quit the game. Not sure if this is a bug or a documentation problem. But for the cost, it should act as you thought.

Yeah, this is certainly a bug. It's officially on "the list"
