• 22 resource points and no clones yet, getting worried...

• That jogged my memory, I wanted to ask Steve about that, how the game mechanics works. I thought it was every other turn you got a clone if you had the resources. But doesn't always do that. Is it a bug or a feature? ;)

• That's certainly how it should work. IIRC, the only time it won't is if there is already a gun on that square, or a unit/clone is standing on the clone generator.

• This current game is messed up. I didn't get any clones for three turns. Seems like I'm a moaning Minnie this morning but all legitimate complaints. Not like someone complaining they can't hit a barn door from 200 yards when firing just snap or auto shots.

• According to the game log, you got new clones in turns 6, 8, 10 and 12, and we're on turn 13. Are you saying they didn't appear?

• Waiting 6 turns before seeing any clones is an unusually long wait, then to get further gaps adds up to a lot of nothing. My engineers were dismantling walls at every opportunity to keep resource number up, buildings built were not excessive in number. I swear I saw tumbleweed blowing in the wind.

• So adding it up 8 turns out of 12 or 13 turns with no clones seems sparse.

• Also something else that's odd, every turn it says we have 13 resources, well I've noticed that for least 6 turns. Now maybe it's a coincidence, but it rather strange to have the same number that many times.

• FYI, clones (and guns etc..) only get added every other turn.

• Not in this game they don't Steve. The top clone generator in the bottom left building has now not had a clone for at least 3 turns. Others have been like this throughout the game.
  
  Also still saying 13 resources. That is another two turns on top of the 6 or more turns in a row I mentioned above. That is one coincidence.

• Let's pause this game for a bit, and I'll add some extra logging so I can see exactly what's happening. I'll let you know when that's done.

• Ok Steve! It's my turn now, I won't attack until you give the go ahead.

• How many resources have we got Pete?
  Posted by xeno 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• I was wondering that. It's not in the game details. I would have to take a turn. I reckon it's low because my engineers weren't dismantling walls last turn.

• You can go into the game but come out without finishing the turn. Should show up at the very start.

• Ok, I'll have a look...
  Posted by petermock 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• It was 3, it's now 9. Sorry I couldn't resist doing some stuff.
  Posted by petermock 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• I just had a look and guess what, saying 13 for me. But maybe only the engineers can see the real number.

• I think there's something screwy with this game. FP got 16 clones and we got 4 ?????? Really? We're not playing that badly! It felt off from the start. Between us both we've played a few thousand games, can tell when something isn't right. I think they're getting our clones! :)
  Posted by petermock 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• Yep, you were dismantling as quick as you could, and I noticed early on how many the other side was getting compared to me.
  Posted by xeno 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• @xeno, that 13 resource points will be what you started with (since it the same start values as for normal colony missions where each side gets RPs).
  Posted by SteveSmith 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• Okay, I've added some extra logging that will show what RPs are at the start end end of each process of generating new Clones. Let's see what it shows.

• Are we continuing this game? :)

• Xeno your turn
  Posted by petermock 4 years ago [Login to reply]



• Done Pete.

• I thought we were waiting for Steve and all long he's been waiting for us!
