[Bug] Alloy and Starbase Upgrades

from Sins Forums

My friends and I have been having trouble getting starbase upgrades to function properly while playing online. We've narrowed down the cause, and it seems that with Alloy enabled, startbase upgrades do not progress. You can queue them up, and it takes resources, but the bar never moves and they never finish. When playing single player, Iron Clad with no alloy, regular multiplayer, it works fine. We've tested with two or three people, and this behaviour is consistent.

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there any more information we can provide?

Ok a friend and I encountered the same issues, and now we cant even host a game iwth Alloy disabled, so I really hope they're making a new patch for this because starbases and no upgrades is gunna make me sad panda.

Also is the Vasari base supposed to move around the gravity well?

Speaking of vasari base does it consume cash? cus I tried playing with Vasari..like yourself I encountered the "doesnt want to upgrade error" but my money constitently goes up and down for NO reason (well I say up and down but its really just down)!!! -1 K to start..then -2K, -3K..all the way up to -4K..its a drag..I dont know if its starbase that uses that kind of money or whatever but it halts my entire expansion like soooo bad!

Need help please!

I ran into the same problem playing online with a friend doing a comp stomp. Base upgrades would queue up, but they would never progress. However, the ai seemed to be able to upgrade their starbases no problem :( . In single player upgrades work fine.
