[Bug: Mercenaries] Arcean Interstellar Defense Module

Values Reversed in InterstelerDefenseModule (StarbaseModuleDefs.xml)

February 22, 2016 12:13:56 AM from Galactic Civilizations III ForumsGalactic Civilizations III Forums

The InterstelerDefenseModule in StarbaseModuleDefs.xml found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Galactic Civilizations III\data\Game\ has the MoveCost EffectType Values reversed compared to TractorBeamModule (ie -0.25 for enemies and +0.25 for you).

As a result, the Interstellar Defense Module makes your own ships crawl to a standstill while your enemies can zip right through.

No wonder the Arceans were conquered . . .

 

Editing the xml file does not appear to affect loaded saves, at the least.

I can confirm that swapping these values does fix subsequent new games, however.

I spoke with Paul and this will be fixed as part of 1.6.1.
