[A Thing]

Apparently the multiplayer mod passes because it doesn't edit the database.

[Blue_Dwarf]

Steam Rimworld forums are a testament to modded game bug issues. 99% of the time something isn't working, it's probably because of mods.

[EuchreJack]

that said, how's the new diplomacy? can you get something silly like a current year earth with the 5 major forces as prewarp empire fighting for the moon?

That has been in for ages.  That was the last improvement before C#

Well I know what I'm doing when I inevitably give up on on my "no minerals on luna or mars and next habitable planet is 4 jumps away" run.

1.9.5 has arrived: http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php?topic=11299.msg131251#msg131251

And it comes with a changelog this time

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Changes List

Next Engine Size tech is now available in Create Project with Next Tech clicked.
Prototypes now have 'Prototype Created' messages rather than 'Research Completed'
PPV bug fixed. The bug was in the class design display rather than the Economics and Naval Org windows.
Cancel button working correctly on Select Name.
Underway Replenishment Fixed.
Anomalies now deleted when using random ruin and only one can be created per body.
DSTS occasionally displaying twice for one population is fixed.
Passenger Liner movement bug fixed.
Interrupt added when maintenance failure causes loss of component.
STO will no longer appear as an option unless weapons and active sensor tech are both available.
Fixed various ground combat bugs regarding ground support fighters and AA.
Selecting a previously designed buoy no longer causes an error.
Fire control range no longer permanently affects particle beam range.
Fixed connections for random stars
Planet retains existing minerals if race generation is cancelled.
Naval and ground rank requirements fixed for Academy Commandant
The code can now handle someone creating a retool task and then deleting the class involved.
Classes with no ships will not appear in the Refit From dropdown.
Restricted the maximum projected time for task completion to 1000 years (to avoid errors with dates above 9999)
Colony Fleets will use Max Items
Load Installations and Load Minerals will use Fleet-level pickup failure messages, rather than ship-level.
Fleet windows refreshes after increment.
Renaming an alien class will retain total units and hull in the node text.
Standing orders and civilian colony ships will respect planetary capacity.
Ground formation templates with associated construction tasks cannot be modified.
New formations use same rank requirement as parent template.
Refit tasks cannot be created if they have a zero cost (refitting a class to an exact copy).
A new SM-only Add Extra button on the commanders window allows you to add a specified number of additional commanders.
Player ground forces won't attempt to capture NPR populations unless there is something to capture.

[Lord Shonus]

His new bug report system pretty much mandates a changelog, which is nice.

[Micro102]

It seems like colony cost is impacted by water. Does that mean places like Luna with no water will never get a colony cost of 0? Or can I add water vapor and does that count?

[Akura]

It does. As you add water vapor to the atmosphere, part of it gets absorbed into the surface water of the body. In my current run, I set the terraformers to add 0.07atm of water vapor to Luna, and by the time it got there(which took longer because it was being absorbed by the surface) the colony cost of water availability had reached 0.

Adding water also seems to add a fair amount of greenhouse effect as well.

[Micro102]

Thanks for the quick reply.

[Lord Shonus]

Had my first combat in C# earlier. Proceeding with all sensors active and my antimissiles set up for 3-per-missle engagements, they never fired. I didn't save, and am going to run the engagement again more carefully to see what exactly is up.

[Micro102]

Is there a place to see all discovered ruins? It seems there used to be an option under the old display2 tab on the system map, but things have changed and now I don't know if I have found any ruins.

EDIT: And on the topic of the system map, what is the "Survey Site" tab for? It lists a few planets with "Low", "High", and "Minimal".

[gomez]

Survey sites are suggested places to send ground survey teams and their chance of discovering new deposits.

Odd, I thought you had a chance for surveys at every planet.

You did in VB6 (Or possibly you didnt and it only SEEMED to). Nowadays, your geological survey vessels will pick up the level of potential a body has, allowing you to send survey vehicle ground forces out to run an actual survey

With the caveat that I haven't used AMMs in my game yet:
1) Are the missile launchers connected to a fire control?
2) Are the AMMs you want to fire connected to the fire control?
3) Have you dragged over a defensive fire mode to your fire control?
4) Do your active sensors have the resolution to actually see the incoming fire (RES 1)?
