Title: Bug or purposeful misinformation in attack log?
Post by: Renshaak on July 01, 2009, 08:44:58 AM
This is probably just planned misinformation, but looks like a bug if it's not.

This attack was allowed:
Fleet Name # of Units Attack Defence Hitpoints
? 100.000 6.399.751+ 130.731+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 5.563.183+ 113.642+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 6.399.751+ 130.731+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 6.399.751+ 130.731+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 6.399.751+ 130.731+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 5.563.183+ 113.642+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 5.563.183+ 113.642+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 5.563.183+ 113.642+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 5.563.183+ 113.642+ 2.219.974
? 100.000 5.563.183+ 113.642+ 2.219.974

The bugs or misinformation are:
- Fleets are ranked out of order
- The total FP (based on http://forum.spaceo.net/index.php/topic,2965.0.html and http://wiki.spaceo.net/index.php/Swarmer) is nearly 10 times that of the fleets it attacked.

Is this purposefully misleading or did I get buggered?

Thats a possible order of ships because FP is computed based on the weight, raw attack and hp. From what I can see, the ships are of the same blueprint but their crew bonus differs so it looks like that it has different attack but its raw attack is just the same. In that case the computer arrange the ships according to the time it was created/cloned.

Kenquinn supports this post as it is correct..... I was the one who made the FP calc public so I would know.....

I've already explained several times in the ingame mails.

The fleets have the same fleet power, but bonuses like crew exp, swarm bonus, commander ability, items are not counted in the fleet power.
Those uncounted bonuses can be quite powerful and can make a ship many times more dangerous.

The order of the ships in not relevant here as they are ordered by raw fleet power prior to adding the bonuses.
