Summary0025184: Nomad Crash Hack Response
DescriptionOthers have reported in the past that exos weren't properly targeting the Nomad planet and player Homeworld. I did not find that to be the case. I do think the AI response should be higher at least in this scenario though. Taking some off for the presence of my Svikari allies, I still recommend at least at 50% boost. Perhaps the 'floor' on Nomad response should be higher?

3x difficulty 8 AIs
147 AIP
CPA happening at the same time
Deepstriking contributing as well
low on metal to start
some more turrets could have been built
11k+ science
80 spare HaP
Nomad 3 to crash into the homeworld to it's left, Malgnus set up to defend against exos going to my homeworld.

Lost one planet but was never seriously threatened in terms of the crash hack failing.

I loaded this save game and tried to crash the nomad into an AI homeworld several times. Every time the player is killed quickly and mercilessly.

And usually the nomad planet nexus is destroyed too. I see no sign of a problem here.

Were you doing lots of micro during this crash to make it actually easy? I wasn't moving the player's forces around.

I tried it again and am getting more varied results. But it does appear that either I got really lucky the first couple of times I tried it before putting this report up, or else something changed in the couple of patches since. Feel free to close this.
