Title: Anyone ever seen it just stop interacting?
Post by: tlmiller on February 24, 2013, 02:47:49 PM
Was playing Essence of War as the PA.  Was probably 1/2 way done, and something weird happened.  The game didn't FREEZE, per say, as I could still move all my units, but they wouldn't interact.

As in, I moved a fleet to Mon Calamari to try to battle it, it unlocked the planets that Mon Cal are attached to, and it showed my fleet and a NR fleet setting above the planet.  No battle.  I moved to another planet and same thing.  Was only on week 65, so seems a bit early for the freeze, but I've never seen this happen on the game before.

Yeah, I built a couple of Enforcers and they move, but just like the others, don't spawn battles.

If I wait long enough, it pops up a battle for Nozquiver with Kaine vs. Ackbar.  Which is REALLY weird because:

a.  Kaine is nowhere near Nozquiver
b.  Ackbar is dead already, I killed him a few weeks back when he attacked me and got a hyperv through the gut.
c.  Nozquiver is controlled by the IR.

It's not particularly easy to make something of this unless it can be replicated. Until then all we know is something got f*cked up.

I know that, but have you ever seen the same thing happen before?  I just want to know if anyone's ever seen it or if I'm the first (playing this mod) that's managed to FUBAR it like this.  :)

No I can't say I have. You're the first to my knowledge to report this.

He's not. I think it's related to the thing where Darth Vader would turn into a black hole in the base game (stuff would stop interacting and start absorbing other stuff), not sure what causes it.

Sweet.  Then it's not anything related to the mod.  I'll just kill the save and start over then.
