1.05 Robinson Crusoe error

Post by zgrssd »

The "Robinson Crusoe" planet history class claims the player will be the only major regime. However, this option does not lock out multiple human players. Wich would be force spawned.

This is either a error with the description (no AI majors/1 AI with Nemesis) or the player options.

I already posted in war room that it allowed human players as set by the start conditions.

It is either a bug with the description or the allowance to select more then 1 player. Both cases need to be adressed, in due time.
That post in the War Room will not get it fixed anytime soon.

What's the actual fix here? Change the description of Robinson Crusoe to say "No AI Majors"?

Having a guaranteed way to have only Player-run Majors sounds like a good thing for setting up MP games?

Yes, such maps are fitting for duels. Don't know about SE multiplayer community, but usually duel maps are well-used in strategies multiplayer.

Either the rules are wrong (allowing more then one Human Major), or the description is wrong (it only disallows AI Majors, save for overrides like Nemesis).

I do not know wich of those is the bug and wich the intended mechganic. And what to fix hinges on that information. I am not the dev, so that descision is not only beyond my paygrade, but outside my Company^^.

You are just taking the description too literally. Of course it's intended to be able to play this setting with multiple humans.

A description thta is not properly describing a thing, is a error that needs fixing.

Either way, there is a error. Reporting errors is what this sub-forum is used for.
I did so.
Where is the issue?

Noted. Will be back in office 25/8!

The idea is you can have special PBEM game setups

Crusoe => Just Humans facing off
Crusoe + Nemesis => Coop game with Humans going against 1 strong Major AI.

Best wishes,
