No longer able to reproduce this. Not sure what changed, but both "natural" and debug-caused waves seem to be working fine now :)

Bizarre. It was definitely happening on .506, and none of the changes currently in for .507 look like they could have influenced this... But hey, never look a gift horse in the mouth!

I hit this one in .507 again. Here's a save game

On further reflection, I think this only reproduces when you have player mods from the ~/AIWar2/XMLData directory.

Upon even further reflection I am now hitting the problem all the time again. Very strange. Does it happen for you on my saved games?

Okay, I think I finally figured this one out (again!) This only seems to reproduce if "Start with first planet" is set to "Yes". Try reproducing with that.

I've seen a few instances where the AI Wave counter is messed up. The "side.StoredStrengthByBudget" for the AIBudgetType.Wave winds up being > the threshhold.

So it will show things like "Next wave in -50s(3000/1500)" which should be impossible since the AI Wave budget is > the threshold to send a new wave.
