Hi, I noticed today that when your opponent in a Ranked match quits, you instantly get all of the achievements for "Winning without power," "Winning without life support," etc. I also got the Majority Buy achievement without buying any stock (lol).

I did use a Hologram on a finished Patent Lab, although I don't remember whether this was right after finishing the lab. Thanks Insync for finding a way to reproduce the bug and advance thanks to Soren for the hotfix.

Hi, just had this bug today. The game state froze and no one was able to do anything, except type in chat. Here is the repeated error message that I found in the log. I can provide the whole log if necessary. ------------------- Error ---------------------------- 14:52 - ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Argument is out of range. Parameter name: index System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Int32]].get_Item (Int32 ind

Wow, this is pretty awesome. I can't wait to give myself a $1000 stock price and laugh as I win the next Offworld tournament :P

The last low aluminum tile was in the water patch to the right of PBHead's base, about 7 or 8 tiles away. It was a low alu/low water tile. I did not take note of how many iron tiles were nearby. I think it was two separated high tiles. Being entirely retrospective about prepared founds: Expansive, squashing most of the aluminum patch, is a good pre-found. I tried figuring out whether a robotic found would work there as well, but the best found I can see leav

Great points, Blues. I agree especially that #2 is bad and ought to be fixed (thanks Soren! :D) If the cancel claim mechanic is strictly in the game to prevent misclick-issues, then I think the geo-cancel thing is a problem. If you want to just interpret it as a mechanic like any other, then it's not a big deal. It definitely adds some luck into the auction mechanic, but it's essentially luck-based already, so I'm not sure how much I care. 3 is a weird one. Has any

Had this same issue and later found out that a button (probably the same toggle button being mentioned above, default "`") will switch you between available resources and the buy/sell resources menus.

Suggestion that might have given Wino more information during the solar-panel-dynamite thing: While buildings are under construction away from your base, make the freighter lines blink on and off. (So blackmagic's geotherm in construction would have been visible to Wino if he selected BM's base.) Also potentially useful, and following the same general idea : assign a neutral color to indicate empty claims away from a player's base (Grey?).

Out of curiosity what do the ranks mean? Ie what's the difference between being recorded as rank 1 or rank 2? Is that for queuing purposes, or for calculating points? Curious

Preface from retrospect-land: Sorry if this comes off harshly; I don't mean it in that way. This would make Magnetic Storms by far the best black market item in the game. Even if the goods are resent from the base, waiting for ten or fifteen seconds for some steel you need to build an offworld or upgrade to fly over to your base is painful, especially in 1v1s where the metagame currently boils down to racing to level 5 and constructing an offworld. <

[quote who="Pbhead" reply="31" id="3587596"] ^^ that guy. I wanted that guy in the tourny for sure. [/quote] :D Thanks. Means a lot from you, considering that your matches in the first tourney are the reason I own this game.
