Ship scan range issue (mod related)

Post by Raider Echo3 »

Hello,

don't know if someone reported the following issue before (couldn't find a posting):

If a scout (eg. scan range 3) has lower scan range than a cruiser (eg. scan range 4) and these ships were grouped together, the group gets the scout scan range (eg. 3 , which results in an effective reduction).

Edit 18.07.15:
had to add, this issue was observed with a modded version.

Hi Raider Echo3,

I tried to duplicate above using vanilla and could not. was this a mod? if so what one.

but speed will do as you described. slowest ship speed will be task force max speed.

Hi Thunderchero,

what a shame. Should have doublechecked before posting.
Thanks for responce and checking. Next week I will check myself. I'm afraid that my mod had some issues (more).

Took a few days more before I made the check.

The good thing: taking into account the little time I had for the checks the issue seems to be (save)game-related, not mod-related or botf-related. I could not repeat the issue with different versions or find an explanation for the two games where this happened.
Bad thing that I didn't take enough time for broader test series.

Sorry for the "Zeitungsente"
