| Summary | 0000549: Blue has an unfair building advantage over COMPUTER PLAYERS | ||||
| Description | Blue can build/place shapes on land which other tribes report as "Too Steep" to build on. This is really noticeable in PopRE Mappack "The Tundras II" on level "Isn't Tom" which is lvl2004.dat inside the TheTundrasII.zip. Below is an example of blue building on the cells with the top LEFT corner being a tree. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/386056099058679820/635692828885909556/unknown.png Below is an image of red trying to build on the exact same cells in blues base. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/386056099058679820/635692693401370644/unknown.png Below is an image of yellow trying to build on the exact same cells in blues base. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/386056099058679820/635692771361161216/unknown.png Below is an image of green trying to build on the exact same cells in blues base. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/386056099058679820/635692115027951621/unknown.png Unknown if this impacts the new tribes (CYAN, BLACK, ORANGE, and PINK) This is extremely noticable on this map because of this bug blue can build a maximum of 26 huts on the same terrain however all other tribes (who are AIs) can build only 22 | ||||

This bug does not impact multiplayer versions of the beta and 1.01/1.03. This appears to only impact players playing as a tribe with AI. |
|
|
This "bug" only occurs if the player is playing as COMPUTER_PLAYER and has no implications online but perhaps might be an issue with tribe changing software. |
