1.8 newly built ships spawning with 1 less movement points

from GalCiv3 Forums

as an example, a ship with 14/14 moves, when built and spawned adjacent to the ship yard, has 13/14 movement available instead of the full 14.

Thanks for the report.  We'll look into it.

Im pretty sure this has always been the case the ship actually spawns on the shipyard tile then moves 1 tile. I think the default direction is northeast

Northwest and you can change it in GlobalDefs.

Nope, this is new behavior as of 1.8.  Before you would get a "free" movement point when a ship was constructed and launched from a shipyard.  Either in default direction or via a Rally Point right next to a shipyard in the preferred direction.

What is happening in 1.8 is that the ship actually travels from the tile that the shipyard occupies and then moves.

This is a bug that we'll fix.
