AI launching right after losing Apollo station

[obsolete]

I just got robbed of another deity win. I captured Joao's capital, and after he had a turn to himself... poof.. he launches his space-ship... from a piece of tundra far far away...

As I understand it, you must re-build the Apollo station after you lose your capital. Am I to believe that it is possible for an AI to rebuild this in tundra locations after just 1 turn?

Were there changes?

actually - in civ4 and warlords you do not ever lose already built ship parts - and in bts you lose the ship only if you lose your capital *after* you launched the ship

I understand you don't lose your parts if you lose the capital before you launch. But as everyone seems to think, and from what I've read, you MUST rebuild the Ppollo project itself. Has this been altered?

 

[ori]

I never even knew that this was supposed to be the case...

I cannot find anything in a cursory glance through the code that would let you lose a project (such as apollo) upon completion - the only thing changed in BtS was that you can lose a complete ship when it is on its way

From what I know, projects aren't linked to the cities, but to the civilization in itself, in spite of they have to be built somewhere.

There were more than one threads regarding this many months ago. Anyhow, thanks for clearing up that this concensus is wrong.

In that case, consider this bug non-existant for now. Maybe I can go back in the auto-save and pause that warhorn until AFTER the ship takes off.. ..
