AI War Technical Support / Possible Bug with Wave Behavior on OSX - Resolved
« on: January 13, 2012, 04:38:41 AM »
Hey there,
Ive been getting back to AIWar lately, and found myself amazed how well it runs on my laptop. However, theres a rather odd and not insignificant difference in how attacking waves behave, compared to the PC version.
Instead of entering the target system, AI waves pile up on the other side of the wormhole, and some (usually larger) ships zap back and forth between the wormhole and the AI guard post, apparently blocking the wormhole for the rest of their fleet. Occasionally one or two ships will get through, but the fleets just keep growing if I dont go in and clear the mess up. The fleet usually doesnt follow me back through if I attack and retreat.
This occurs on both version 5.000 and 5.020 with no change in behavior whatsoever, and doesn't occur on PC at all. Checking "Cross Planet Waves" makes no difference either.
If this is a known issue Im sorry for reposting it, but I couldnt find anything on the first couple pages of this section or Mantis.
Thanks!
