Going to answer my own post... After spending some time with this, I believe I'm aware of what the balance has to be. I'll also assume the reason there have been 80 views, and no responses to this post, is for the sake of maintaining the integrity of the process through SMAC. I respect...

Having racked up a few victories with the Gians, at the Transcend level, I decided to try out the University. I've learned about the drone issues it faces, and at the moment I am aghast at how to get beyond the initial phases. As it stands, as soon as the second citizen is created, way...

Thank you for the detail Darsnan/Petek... All seem to be working well. No crashes, and no more ships! Thank You again...

Darsnana and Petek, Once again thank you for your prompt replies. I have not tried to continue playing this campaign, I just notified you all when it showed up. Good to know that I can expect a crash. While I do still harbor a habit for excessive units, I assume you both are referring to the...

Hello Everyone, I finally claimed a victory, at the Transcend Level, and am on track to duplicate the experience in another game... When, all of the sudden, these very weird ships/vessels/units just appeared out of nowhere. You should see an image of it in the attachments, below, with an...

Thank you Petek... I'm not touching AX until I've got a handle on Transcend level. Tried to upload a .mp file to you to check out a custom map I've been playing on (hmopdd2.MP), I came across at http://www.civgaming.net/smac/maps.shtml This would be by: DilithiumDad, and comments "A highly...

Hello Everyone, I've played games like Age of Empires, and Masters of Orion II, to the highest level, and found that I could win handily. I've taken my time with SMAC, and found a way to dominate my opponents... Taking my time, since you're continually learning new things from the game...

Thank you for your replies... I have not come across this again, yet. The issue was happening when the climate was leveling out... As the Planet Geologist would blame one faction or another for the rise/fall of sea level. Since that time, my opponents had ganged up on me in secret, and forced a...

Hello everyone... Keep enjoying, and learning more about this game as I go. Winning my first tour on Thinker level, anyway... 1) I have stumbled on an issue where my Land Formers seem to be disappearing. I will move them to an area to work, select their task, and suddenly the former...

I've been playing SMAC since the last post above, about a week or so... And no crashes. Thank You again...

At a certain point, I had given up on playing SMAC again, and therefore not purchasing Beyond Earth. But the work you've done here has given the game a :king: rating again... The game seems to be running as smoothly as before. I will not put you through anymore programmatic questions, as I will...

Ok... Before accessing the .sav you repaired, I tried to spot the bug for myself so I could see what it was all about. I couldn't even get near the 'Port of Last Summer' in question. It was like a wounded dog... and would crash, as I tried to access the queue. I tried to access it with the...

Again... Posted this earlier this afternoon, but it didn't complete... So here is as it would have read... Nice!... I'll be checking this out tonight when I get home... I am an freelance internet professional, and I am code friendly, but of course this is all AC Centric to me, and $$ess OTJ...

Below is another .sav of a game in which I achieved world domination, but payed no attention to the unit limit. I had sent you a rather well thought reply this afternoon... But here I am checking in and it is nowhere to be found... Nevertheless... I disbanded probably 30 or so units, but it...

Hello... Thank you for your reply... Please see an attachment of my .SAV below... Posted ...but have a major correction: This is not crashing at the change of the turn, but after the Windows of Golden Age, Colony Status Queues and Transcend 46... So, I supposed that would make it at the...
