Trade routes established to the wrong planet. Build B4B.

January 5, 2003 1:16 PM from

This is a really wierd bug on build Beta 4B. I built a freighter at star system A and sent it to the Yor's planet B to establish a trade route. But the route was established between my planet C and the Yor's planet B. Then I had planet D build a freighter and sent it to the same planet I sent the first freighter (Yor's planet

and that trade route became established between my planet C and the Yor's planet B (the same route as the first freighter).

That bug has been around for a few builds. At least one other person besides me has reported it here. There was some speculation that it was related to the distance the freighter had traveled, as if a trade route longer than some distance X couldn't be handled correctly.

Could be. I should have mentioned that I was playing a gigantic galaxy. Perhaps it got fixed for what showed in 4A, but the change in galaxy sixes in 4B were not anticipated by the bug fixer. When we get 40x40 sectors (Wow!!! 1600 sectors!!!!) I think we should look for more errors where the number of sectors could expose code unprepared for the increase.
