Me too!!! Thats not something I put into the game! Did you manage to get a screenshot of this? I really don't know how to explain that one! You can even check the alphax.txt file and verify that I didn't put a nuke into the #UNITS section of the game.
Then again, you seem to inherently get extremely interesting results from your games, eh?

Heh,nope. i figured you had done it on purpose.

I do? i guess i do have this way of charming the game into doing my bidding,if im reading you correctly...

Anyways, getting back onto topic. Here's a shot of something I haven't seen in a long, long time (like since I learned how to use crawlers and blow the AI's away!).

What the...AI flechettes? Suuuuuure. Next I bet you're going to tell me they're using armour better than plasma steel

[Lazerus]

The AI actually trying to PB me in a PBEM !!

For this game I moved Flechette Defenses to the middle game techs (Doc:AP IIRC). Thus the AI's had more than enough time to build these, which they obviously do.

tech graphics wrong

Another issue that I observed during this scenario and that I had never seen before is that some of the tech graphics have now been scrambled somehow....

[Senethro]

Are those in any of the old graphics files?

Not that I am aware of. Also, there are too many mixed up tech pics versus the available files in the subdirectory (I was the one who catalogued all of those files for the C4AC project).

I had the AI using probability armour and quantum lasers on one of my games i made. about 2200ish

If you play a switchgame, you're almost sure to recieve a Singularity PB from AI just before you transcend..

That Biomachinery graphic is the pic I made for the Exowomb technology in SMAniaC. You seem to have extracted it into your main SMAC directory apparently. I guess you have similar problems with facility & project graphics, not to mention some strange mp3 files, diplomacy, help texts...?

Ouch, Darsnan can do a reinstall.

OK, that explains it! I built my SP Challenge in the same subdirectory where I built the SMAniaC MP game. Must be when I had originally backed up my files I didn't back up the tech pics! D'oh!

-- Depends-- Even in a switchgame-- I find enough ODPs in the sky can prevent the nuking
