Planet Spawn/Phase lane bug...?

May 24, 2012 7:23:17 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

so, i was trying to send an envoy cruiser to an allied planet, when i noticed this...

notice all those trade ships circled around the planet like theyre about to bombard it? well, theyre not...

theyre trying to get to this planet here (asteroid at bottom of image). i dont know exactly what to make of this, or how devs would go about fixing it... and i actually wouldnt mind a more three-dimensional playing field, but i dont think this is the way to go about it

happens ocsasionally. just part of random maps being random. nothing to worry about.

 

 

though... if they ever get around to fixing the random map generator... that would be the tine where they should also implement the ability to have symetrical random maps. for the win.

well, it could be a bit game-breaking. say i had allied victory turned off, and had to destroy that planet to win?

i get that all the time when using

1)Custom map with one star and a about 8 groups of planets types maxed with short phase lanes on big map

2)same as above but tiny map

3)many planets on small map

you can jump to these, it's funny to watch your ships pivot to do it, great for bottle necks.
