Do I win yet? (My quest for largest colony which crashed my computer.)

Port lv 1 op.

from Offworld Forums

Be very careful with turning up the gamespeed to AI test.

 

Like. very very careful.

 

Like. If I was not an IT guy, it would have taken an IT guy to get my computer working again. 

 

Less than a minute after taking this screenshot I got a whea_uncorrectable_error blue screen of death, and it was pretty death-y. You might want to consider disabling AI-test game speed, or at least require someone to turn it on via a config file somewhere.

 

Anyway, level one port is OP. Imagine what a lv 2 port could do! :o

If you are wondering how I did this, without the AI buying me out:

 

1. I set the difficulty to easiest so I could buy everyone out before they did anything.

2. I used the claims of everyone else to surround the HQ of the last guy, so he can never build a building next to his HQ.  This was supposed to just prevent him from ever accessing the offworld market, but it appeared to kinda glitch him out, cause he just kinda didnt do much after that.

Hahaha, well done. I don't know if you read it here, but I posted the idea that it would be a cool meta-game to try to grow the Colony to the max a while ago. If so, good the see you ran with it, if not it does seem to be something to try, isn't it?!  Great to see it can grow that big.

Smart idea to surround the opponents HQ that way, I guess Soren will need to adjust the AI again, to help them adjust to this evil tactic...! ;-)
