I just captured an Alien Artifact after killing the garrision of an AI Base at 54,52 on a Large Map. Instead of the conquering unit, which was a 70% damaged Recon Rover, having it appear in the same square, it teleported over several of my bases and units to square 61,19 where I have dual formers terriforming. I've never had this happen before, I am running the most recent version of SMAC. Has anyone else had this happen?

I've seen this happen before, though not much (as I don't capture many artifacts), and I've never characterized the behavior."Cutlery confused Stalin"

Yea, the captured artifact behavior is really sketchy.He's got the Midas touch.
But he touched it too much!

Often the artifact is also just destroyed instead of captured, in my experience.

I've seen this too. About 1\3 of the time it disappears and and about 2\3 of the time it was transported to my 2nd closest base. This is all based an numerous experimental replays of the same turn.Comment

I've had this happen frequently - most often when attacking with noodles or copters. It seems pretty random as to where the artifact actually goes - I've had them end up on the other side of Planet before now. Still, at least in my games they always seem to appear in a base when teleporting, instead of just turning up forlorn in the middle of a patch of fungus or something :/"Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown . . . reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency" - Walt WhitmanComment

I guess I'm not familiar with Toliman or why it isn't prudent to joke about this with a girl from there. Can someone enlighten me?Originally posted by girlfight_club
