WAD? (1.0.3Beta) Hidden Pirate bases displayed

Post by Malevolence »

I've noticed that hidden Pirate bases now show up on the Galaxy map and system summary when selected at a zoomed out magnification. I didn't notice this before the beta 1.0.3 patch, but perhaps it was always WAD.

That pirate flag is NOT/NOT displayed on the main window, but if I select a system the summary shows me the pirate base. I also note that the system must have been previously explored.

Let me say these systems were opened (explored status) at the beginning of the game. I have never sent a ship to these systems. Perhaps that effects the issue.

it was always there, subject to your ships having found the pirate base in the first place.

Hi Malevolence,

Just wanted to give a nod to your avatar. Star Fleet II Krellan Commander is one of my all time favorite games. Still have the original box and all its contents. Wish someone would do a remake of it bringing it up to current standards.

Thanks Jim--and nice catch. Obviously, it is also one of my favorites.
