Bug report

from Stardock Forums
Sometimes when I am moving my ship around with the keyboard the ship reverses direction.

Ships get stuck on top of each other. And ships can go through each other.

You need a dialog that asks if you are sure you want to attack.

Auto pilot needs to be smart enough to avoid accidentally going to war with people. My ships have started wars on accident far too many times.

Can't trade star systems yet.

Need a screen to summarize civ abilities of different races.

Need a way to ask other civilizations to declare war on your enemies.

Relations always seem to get worse, never better.

Explosions seem to stop the flow of the game.

Even list on right is down too far.

Would like to know civ abilities i've just received when a technology is completed.

"Ships get stuck on top of each other. And ships can go through each other"

It's not a bug, it's a feature :)

"You need a dialog that asks if you are sure you want to attack. Auto pilot needs to be smart enough to avoid accidentally going to war with people. My ships have started wars on accident far too many times."

Those are definatly on their todo-list since it's been reported a few times before.

"Can't trade star systems yet."
"Relations always seem to get worse, never better."
"Need a way to ask other civilizations to declare war on your enemies."

Trade, as well as foreign relations are features recently implemented in the alphas, it sure is much more to do there, but the focus until today have been the more basic functions. So it sure is on their todo list.

Should be early this week...there's an internal build of Alpha 8 going around. It has some significant changes in the game loop, so once that's working correctly, we'll be releasing it on Drengin for you guys to test out.

Oh, and it has an Improved Invasoin screen that I'm quite psyched about! We'll keep you posted!

I was lucky enough to actually complete a game or two, and when I did it launched my internet dialler(I can't get DSL or Cable) and sent a report to Stardock, this was fine, until one time I got an error from the dialler and then the whole thing hung, there should be a retry option or something a little more graceful.
