| Summary | 0009958: Compilation of ship description problems Mark II | ||||
| Description | * According to the patch notes to 5.028, Mark IV Scout Starships provide counter-missile coverage in an unspecified range. But there's nothing in their stats or description that indicates that. * AI Core Cross Planet Attack Guard Post - Says it launches the wave "as soon as the human players bring military units to this post's planet", but in fact there is a delay of several minutes. * Plasma Siege Modules - the ones on Spire Champions can't target small ships but nothing in the description indicates that. (I presume that's true for similar modules on modular forts and perhaps spire capital ships, but I haven't checked). * Heavy Bomber Starship - description states "unable to hit small targets", but this was changed in a recent patch. * Modular Fortress' descriptions state "The available module selection expands with research into the corresponding turrets/shields". That's now only true for a minority of the modules: most modules' descriptions correctly state "Mark II and III variants are unlocked with the corresponding champion modules". Rather than have these modules' descriptions contradict the text in the Fort itself, I'd suggest removing the quoted line from the Fort description, and putting a line in the descriptions of each of the basic modules stating exactly which research upgrades them. * Logistical Orbital Command Stations' descriptions all state "They also have middling armor". Based on the ship stats, all command stations have the same armor. * Zenith Power Generators' descriptions haven't been updated to reflect the zero operating cost, and still refer to the old wave multiplier. (Thanks onyhow.) * Tachyon Beam Emitters - description mysteriously calls them "stronger", but they're not particularly strong, nor do they have a weaker counterpart. A relic from a much earlier version? * Spire Teleporting Leech - called "large" in the description but cannot be targetted by Spire Minirams or other ships that can't target small ships * Starships - Heavy Bomber Starship is described as "fast" while the Cloaker Starship is described as "very fast"; the former is faster, so reverse the descriptions. * Spire Blades - Stats say "Self attrition time 0:15" but description says "loses health over a 10-second period" * Alien Refugee Ship - "It's preliminary contact..." --> "Its..." * Armored warheads - Described as "armored" in the description and name but... they're unarmored! I guess this suggests a little makeover - either give them all armor, or change their names to "durable warheads" or "penetrator warheads" or whatever. | ||||

For 6.017: * Thanks to Bognor and others for reporting a number of textual errors: ** Corrected the Core CPA post's description saying the CPAs were launched immediately. ** Corrected several Plasma-Siege unit/module descriptions not noting that they could not target small ships. ** Corrected Bomber Starship description still saying it cannot target small ships. ** Corrected Modular Fort descriptions not noting that the more exotic module types become available with champion upgrades. ** Corrected Logistical Command Station descriptions implying a different level of armor compared to other command station types. ** Corrected Zenith Power Generator description claiming to have an operating cost and claiming to increase AI waves against the planet. ** Corrected Tachyon Beam Emitter and Stealth Tachyon Beam Emitter description claiming to be "stronger" (technically, stronger than a tachyon drone, but it doesn't really matter). ** Corrected Spire Teleporting Leech description claiming that the unit is "large", when it's not targetable by stuff that cannot target "small" units. ** Corrected Cloaker Starship description claiming to be "fast". ** Corrected Spire Blade description claiming the wrong duration before self-destruct. ** Gave the Armored Warhead Armor so that it's, well, Armored. |
