Submitter: R A Spottiswood, raspotts@tik.com.au
Version: Alien Crossfire
Category: Combat
Status: Fixed
Priority: 3
Save before: N/A
Save after: N/A
Description: I got into an artillery duel between my spore
launchers and a Pirate vessel. At one point, I moved a spore launcher into the base and
then fired. It was listed as having a -33% hasty penalty. Native units are immune to such
penalties!

Note by Aredhran: Fixed in SMACX patch V2

Category: UI
Status: Pending
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Go to Preference, uncheck the "Mouse at edge of screen scrolls view". Now, quit
prefs. Check that - mouse doesn't scrolls at edge. Now, call up, for example, right-click
menu, and try again - now it does scroll. The game also ignores this option when some
other dialog boxes are active.

BugID: #0036, Zoom_to_Base
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: UI
Status: Confirmed
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Advanced prefs, Zoom to base doesn't recenter map option. Set this on. Now, quit
dialog, and click base that is not in the center. Now, it still recenters screen on this base.
Is this how it supposed to behave?

BugID: #0037, Automatic_Unit_Design
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: Unit design
Status: Confirmed
Priority: 2
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Design units automatically option. Set this off, also set Auto prune off, then design
some units with available reactor. Research some better reactor. The game then designs
units with new reactor for you, and I hate that.
MORE: try that: get the Singularity reactor tech before the one for Quantum reactor,
design some units with new reactor. Then discover Quantum reactor tech. What
happens? The game doing the same - "prunes" superior units with singularity reactor and
designs obsolette ones with quantum reactor.

BugID: #0038, Abandon_Shore_Base
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: General
Status: Pending
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Build a base on the shore. Now, before it grows to size 2, buy the sea colony pod there.
When you choose to abandon base for it, base disappears, but you don't get any colony
pods.

Note by Aredhran: I think this is by design

BugID: #0039, Psi_Gate
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: UI
Status: Pending
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: A possible minor bug due to its rareness, since the psi gate is envloved. That is -- when
you use the psi gate, the contents of base in the bottom of the screen does not refresh, it
seems that the base to which you have teleported contains the same defenders that in the
base from which you have teleported. To refresh, you can, for example, switch to viewing
pieces.

BugID: #0040, Music_Off
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: UI
Status: Pending
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Play with CD in the drive.
In audio/video preferences, turn off music, speech.
Enjoy silence for some time.
Now exit game, start it again. You will notice sound is back. However, look at
preferences - it is still off there. A bug...
You may get the same effect not restarting the game - just wait some SP to be completed,
see the movie. When you finish viewing, sound is back again, despite what preferences
says. Perhaps the movie playing is the only reason for bug, since restarting cause intro
movie playing. And, the actual movie playing is not neccessary, just a try to do it.

BugID: #0041, Hurry_Foreign_Base
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: Diplomacy | UI
Status: N/A
Priority: 5
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: MINOR FEATURE REQUEST (just ignore ONLY THIS one if you don't even want to
listen those): Allow to buy facilities in the other faction's bases (a kind of dotation)
Perhaps this might be only allowed for pact mates and those with treaties. For example, I
have an ally, and I have a lots of money, and I really don't want this ally to lose the
particular base. The enemy troops are close... I want to hurry production in this base and
neighbour bases, so that this ally could prepare to defend. Actually, this could be nearly
the only way to help your ally if he is on an other side of world...

BugID: #0042, Alpha_txt_list_sizes
Submitter: Oleg Leschov, oleglesh@chat.ru
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: General
Status: N/A
Priority: 5
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: ANOTHER MINOR FEATURE REQUEST - I've tried to add some features -
that is, additional type of citizen, the fifth reactor type - and messed with it - game seem
to read a fixed number of available options in most cases. The great case is custom units
(the number of which is stated before the list), and the technology tree (or it's fixed, too?).
The varied number of certain options might be great for the mods developers... But I might
understand if this is too hard to implement.

BugID: #0043, Slow_Alien_Graphics
Submitter: Fugi the Great, truge@bytehead.com
Version: Alien Crossfire
Category: UI
Status: Confirmed
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A
Save after: N/A
Description: The graphics is super slow with the new alien units. Please fix this, whether it be adding
new low-res Cav's or whatever.
Trav: Those progenitor former units are painfully slow. Most of
the other units seem to be okay, but those formers bog everything down horribly. Maybe
redo them at a lower resolutinon or something, or maybe include some alternate low-res
caviar files like in the first SMAC.
