| Summary | 0026734: Cross-planet waves spawning at AI homeworld | ||||
| Description | This is a new game in 4.004, with two difficulty 8 AIs in Expert mode. Instead of the expected 69 strength wave spawning on the adjacent planet ('Spawning at a warp gate on Ithaca and will then travel to attack you in 12 seconds') the wave is spawning on the AI homeworld 'Viminal', then traveling to attack 'Blestum', the original target of the wave. It took 8 minutes or so for the wave to arrive, and in the meantime it manifested as 'threat'. I don't know if this is intended behavior or not, but the in-game description suggests it'll spawn adjacent and this isn't happening... The two saves are pre- and post-wave, and the screen is right before and right after, when the wave hasn't appeared on the expected planet. | ||||

@Velius Do you have a save before this particular wave is notified to you? |
|
|
I'll try and generate one - my last save before the wave started is about 8 minutes earlier, and it looks like from testing I'm having trouble getting the behavior to reoccur, that wave is spawning normally now. It's early enough in the game it's very difficult to identify what events contributed. I will say it looks like similar behavior is happening sometimes in my newer game, I can try and see if I have examples. |

|
Yes, it's rare enough that makes it harder to catch. Increasing autosave frequency can be handy for this kind of situations. Thank you! |

Okay. This is a pre-wave announcement save, a save after a wave against 'Host' was announced, and after the wave started, with the bug and the wave spawning on the homeworld. There's another wave in progress doing the same thing. Aggravatingly, the first time I reloaded the 'pre-wave announcement' save, a wave with normal behavior happened. I don't know what the trigger for behavior changes is, but it should start a wave in a minute from the first 'pre-announcement' save. |

Oh, that was fast, thank you! |

It's happening to me a LOT. I don't know if it's something with my install, but hopefully that helps track it down. |

* Fixed a bug where a wave would spawn on its home world instead of the expected planet. ** This could happen only in games with 2 or more AIs. In more detail, when a wave from one AI was planned to spawn on another AI's planet, it would fail a check to find such planet and therefore default to spawning on its home world. ** Thanks to Velius for the report and the saves. |
