Max no or bases reached !

[the_rest]

Hello everyone, thanx for reading.

I replay SMACX sometimes, since like a few months I play one big huge game !
And I think i reached the maximum number of bases limit. I am at around 480-500 bases now (is hard to count to include the conquered bases). And i want to build more bases !

When i try to buil a base with a colony pod, it just asks me for base name, then it doesnt build a base, the unit just skips the turn. Is the same for sea colony pods.

So what can I do to build more bases ?

the_rest,

Welcome to Apolyton! The maximum number of bases in a game is 512. You can find this, and other useful information, in our board's FAQ. This limit can't be changed right now, but it might be possible in the future. Check your PMs for additional information.

I think the maximum number of bases is only in the The SMAC/X FAQ: Feedback Thread (the FAQ thread is closed and it is unclear when it will be updated).

Hi vyeh,

That's what I thought (about the FAQ itself having the wrong base cap). However, item #42 of the FAQ gives the correct limit, 512.

Petek,

Thanks! I had forgotten it was there. Do you know if there is a 'poly post on the maximum number of bases?

Here's one in which Lefty Scaevola gives 512:

At one point the FAQ cited who was responsible for the items, but that disappeared.

There is an older version of the FAQ.
