    The game is up at http://raeg.jekotia.net/, however, combat is broken. The thing is, we have no idea what aspect of it is broken. In order for it to have any chance of being fixed, we're going to need people to play the game in an organized fashion trying specific things in combat instead of throwing anything you have at another player.

    Until further notice, NO DEFENCES. I'd like to isolate all potential issues to the ships in combat. If ship-only combat seems normal, then we know that defences are what's breaking combat.

    how can we try out different combinations of ship types and defences if we are not allowed defences?

    edit; also "there goes my real life"

    For now, ship vs ship, that way we can see if ships are the issue.

    That's just it, we don't know. Combat results are illogical but neither me nor beerdude could ever find any pattern or logic to indicate what is making the results so fucked up.

    Please do NOT research armour, weapons, or shield technology above level 10. If we keep everyone on an even playing field in terms of the combat techs, it will be a lot easier to see where the game fucks up.

    one could make a homeworld 2 mod by changing planets into carrier ships/shipyards/capitals and remake the research tree and stuff like its in homeworld

    Because XNova is intended to be a free OGame clone that anyone can host.

    wtf is this shit ?!

    edit:

    also buff the damn cargo space
    i have a lvl20 deu cargo and im nowhere near the req for half of my junk to move

    D:

    what the...
    i suddenly need 40 million of cargo space to move a colonizer one planet away?

    edit 2:

    o right tech cap of 10, i kinda went overboard with CTR+mouse1

    People have already failed at this. And at not building defences.

    Warning! Illegal character detected!

    Element: thisresource1
    Value: -1.4000013766813E+17

    when attacking ??? with 36098 light fighters


    Ships aren't allowed to attack because they don't seem to have cargo capacity. Something is trying to load shit onto my bombers even though they have nothing. i think it's trying to load the deut necessary to travel the distance. -160114841 is how much cargo space is being used
