BugID: #0091, Guard_Unit
Submitter: markyj, mark.johnson.1@wcom.com
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: Combat
Status: Request
Priority: 5
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Add a 'Guard' order to a particular unit - for instance,
if I have a former way out
in the middle of nowhere, I would like to have a guard unit assigned
to him that moves
along with it and attacks anything that threatens the former. I have
used the -L command,
but that only assigns the guard to a particular location and the
former may have moved on
in the mean-time.

Description: I have used the -L command on needle-jets. The
needle-jets have a range of at least 8
and they never wake up unless the enemy gets within two squares, even
though the enemy is
'seen' on my map. I would like them to respond to any seen threat on
my borders automatically.

of the Build Queue list. If it
is the first item on the Queue, click on it, then click delete, then
do something else, then
leave the city and come back in. It is still on the Build
Queue list. Only happens on rare
occassions.

BugID: #0100, Obsolete_Prototyping
Submitter: RedFred,
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: AI
Status: Pending
Priority: 3
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: In a game one of the aliens called me up and told me that she had just prototyped a
1-2-1 unit so I'd better behave or ...
Why the heck are the aliens prototyping 1-2-1 units? They start the game with the ability
to build 1-3r-1 defensives. I suppose that there is that possibility that she was just bluffing
but it would be a bluff that wouldn't make any sense. Didn't have infiltrator status to
check. I suspect that this is a problem alluded to earlier about the game offering you the option to
build obsolete units. It may be that the AI takes the most recent discovery as the best
rather than checking to see if it really is. This would also explain why the game will often
offer me the option of building 3 reactor units when I have discovered 4 reactor units first.

Kinjiru: I have seen both of these and they are still present in v2 of SMAX.
Additionally, if you have autodesign on, you will get new unit prototypes for obsolete unit
types if you first discover a better tech. I.e. you get missles before gatling. Once you discover
gatling, you will see new units designed with it even though missiles are better.

Save after:
Description: I also notice that if you get that pop up screen offering to see new units (design workshop),
that if you say no, it will often keep asking you the next time you discover a new tech
(unrelated to the unit in question)

Status: Pending
Priority: 3
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: I encountered a really weird bug with probe teams: I was playing peacekeepers, and the
spartans had surrendered to me. I had traded one of their bases, so I could launch probe
team attacks to keep them small. I moved one of my probe teams to their territory, then
another, and they wanted to fight each other!(I got the message: Spartan probe team
spotted. Do covert action/other...

BugID: #0103, Monolith_Terraform
Submitter: Fugi the Great, truge@bytehead.com
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: Terraforming
Status: Pending
Priority: 4
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: Saw that one of the computer controlled factions, forgot which, built a solar collector in the
same square as a monolith. Why would it do this? You only get 2-2-2 on a monolith
regardless what you do to it, or does the AI get another energy unit out of it. Every time I
have tried modifying a monolith square, it says it can not be done.

BugID: #0104, HSA_AI
Submitter: Fugi the Great, truge@bytehead.com
Version: Both AX and AC4
Category: AI
Status: Confirmed
Priority: 3
Save before: N/A (not available)
Save after:
Description: After I build the HSA, why does the AI insist on trying to subvert my troops or infiltrate
my cities? Their probeteams just end up getting killed. Yes I know that if you have the
proper tech when playing SMACX you can subvert units and infiltrate cities, but I know
that the other factions do not have that tech. Does the AI "forget" that I had the HSA, or
doesn't it check before the attempt is made?
