How does the combat system work?

#1 Post by Rydra »

Hi there,

I've been having several battles and I just reckon how the system works and if it is fare. There have been times where I had a fight with almost equivalent forces, yet the enemy unleashes all their attacks on my fleet and everyone on my fleet dies before they have time to retaliate.

Anyone has details about how does it work? Who attacks first? How is everything calculated?

The order of events in combat is random. More specifically, see the AutoResolveCombat function, and its comments, in CombatSystem.cpp or various forum posts such as this.
