Suspected Battle Bug When Attacking A Nest

from GalCiv4 Forums

I have encountered a puzzling situation when attacking a nest.  The first screen snapshot shows the fleet with which I am attacking and the second screen snapshot shows what I am attacking.  Logically, I should be able to destroy the nest with no problem, but the third screen snapshot shows a battle prediction that says that I will incur light casualties and they will incur no casualties.  How can that be?

When I attacked, the fourth screen snapshot shows that I did not do any damage to the nest and that I sustained extensive damage.  WHY? The fifth screen snapshot shows the Battle Report that shows that every one of my beam and missile attacks only had a value of 1 and that every one of them missed.  WHY?

Is this a bug or is there something that I am missing about what I need to be able to destroy this nest?

Whoops, I left off the last screen snapshot of the battle report.

If it's not an actual bug then the only thing I can think of is that nests are immune to non-kinetic attacks.

I'm thankful for those of you who are daring to use this test version. I think I'm going to wait a week.

Apologies for the confusion. I am looking into this to confirm if it's a bug. I'll update you as soon as possible. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!

After testing a couple scenarios I was not able to reproduce this. Do you still have your save game where this issue occurred?
