My only concern, would be that a dynamic toning-down (keep the AI limiting relative to the human player's forces) would be better than a static one where the limits are hardcoded... But that may be sufficient anyways.

Thanks a lot, I'll pop another one from the stack...

OK, I forgot about that (good) policy, but it's too bad that it hampers us on doing some sensible things...

What about adding server-side code to help with the capping ? So that no player info is sent to AI clients... But I guess that will be frowned upon too...

Here's one without the debug code...

Although, I think we technically did make it unloseable already when we blocked the lowest level(s?) from invading any player empire planets. It kind of sounds like that may be working, but that it is still a bit too daunting because the AI builds up huge hordes of ships. In most of those situation...

also thinking the enemies buildup of fleets gets a ton of bonuses that it shouldnt? The AI gets absolutely no bonuses over you. Yet, the newcomers (as I was not so long ago) still think this is the case... This means at least two things: * The IA is good (very good? , too good?, and that's probably...

After a lot of fumbling around, I got something that seems to work, it's rediffed against svn current. Please test & comment

That's what the different shapes for the icons are for, if you're not zoomed out too far you can see what different ship types are in a fleet by the differing shapes the icons make, they combine reasonably well as well. If you zoom out too much then you can only see you've got something there but I...

OK, sorry too, my fault, I recycled the mass-focus-setting-thread, and added the subsequent (related to) bug fixing patches to it, so it was misleading...

They are RFC though, and may miss some comment explaining their intent. I wanted to know your comments about the way I fix the bugs first...

I meant additional to r7911... It does not need to be combined with anything, it is a self-contained bug fix (attempt, RFC) to fix the missing refresh bug we discussed earlier in that thread. I discovered that bug after you committed [r7911] ... It is independent of the other patch there that addres...

This is the additional patch that fixes the "when we change focus in sidepanel, objlistwnd's focus column does not reflect it".

I'll look into that. I did most of my testing with a saved game at turn 15. Some bugs may have slipped in during all the refactorings...

Hello dilvish,

there's a typo line 9508 in GT_TROOP_POD_DESC : "invation", from your [r7954] commit.

OOoohh, maybe I can get a "Dyson Silvae Emeritus" if I'm kind enough... :-) Well, to qualify for the "Emeritus" part you've to leave the project after being a veteran team member for years. You are very welcome to strive for that honor :mrgreen: Crap, now I'm a "space drago...

OK, is this looking like what you want ?Edit: this is an edited patch, so may not be applicable as-is, if it does not apply, please ask, I'll rediff...
