| Summary | 0001658: Wave of 20,000+ ships after killing a counter-attack post? | ||||
| Description | As the title says, I was recently hit with a MASSIVE wave after destroying 1 Mark III Counter-Attack Guard Post. As you can see in the first screenshot, planet Roar only had 1 Counter-Attack post, but after destroying it in the second screenshot, I got hit with what seems to be a ridiculously oversized wave. | ||||

I'll see your 20k and raise you with my 90k wave. Seriously, something needs to be done about these counter-attack posts. Its currently nigh on impossible in this release to take a planet that has a counter attack post due to these absolutely insane waves. :\ |
|
|
|
|
|
Agreed, there was absolutely no way I could have won the game after that. LOL WTF you weren't joking |
|
|
I'm currently digging through these related reports looking for a save from before generating the offending wave (generally via antagonizing a counter-attack post), if you have your save for this, please post it :) |

Uploaded a save with a couple of MkIV Bomber Starships helpfully provided next to a MkIII counter-attack post. Every time I've destroyed it waves have been generated from 60k to even 100k ships! Have fun with it keith! :D |
|
|
Ok, I made one fix we knew about needing and I got a spawn of somewhat less than 6.4k, so that's a move in the right direction ;) |
|
|
is that fix in 4.042? |
|
|
It is. From the wiki for 4.042: Fixed unintended inflation of counter-attack-wave size. May still be some issues but this should fix the biggest of them. |
|
|
I'm going to go back to the actual game and get to the planet with the CPA then upload the save right before my units destroy it. |
|
|
Okay, save attached. In this game, simply destroy the Orbital Command on planet "Roar" and you will get (in version v4.41) anywhere from 7,000 to 20,000+ size Counter-Attack Waves. |
|
|
|
|
|
This should be fixed for 4.042; it may still be too high but won't be nearly as susceptible to a "runaway" situation like it is in 4.041. |
|
|
Cool! I can't wait for it so I can keep playing :) |
