Bozz -> Need some help !! (5/7/2010 3:32:34 PM)

Hi all, first of all I apologise for my bad english, I'm French...

I bought this game a month ago, never heard about it but I like spending my time on 4x games.

I enjoyed it but I noticed a lot of little issues...

I'm playing Distant worlds with the latest patch,
Playing galaxy with 700 stars and 10 empires, my first issue is the fleets who don't want to disband... I'm selecting the fleet in the fleet window and then I make leave current fleet, but on the fleet window the fleet is always there, but ingame there is no more option to disband the fleet ( hepe anyone understand what I try to say ).

My second issue is the AI who controls my ships, when I say to my fleet to refuel at nearest position, they go to the position some ships are refueling and others are not, they move to a nother systeme to refuel on a nother planet and so on, why aren't they waiting for the others ship to refuel on the planete and then refuel, all the ships of my 2nd fleet about 14 ships are in 3 different systemes, and some of them are moving since a while trying to refuel...other issue is when I ask a flett to attack, some ships just stop near the target systemes and wait in deep space while the others are attacking the systeme...

I think it should not be necessary for the ships to dock on baese or planetes to refuel, they should refuel on entering in orbit of the planets or baeses.

It's taking so much time for them to refuel, I'm at war with 4 big empires who are all around me and attacking my systemes, I was able to attack just one ennemy systeme in months... because all ships of my fleet are still refueling...

I'm even not able to defend my colonies even with the 2nd strongest fleet of the galaxy...
there is a lot to manage, all around my systemes I see my ships fighting automatically, and losing...and my bases being attackied by ennemies...

And also, how to construct ressuply ships with the 1.04 update, what technologie do I need...because I don't see them in the construction screen, and if someone could explain me how to use them that would be nice...


And is it possible to bomb planets with destroyer...

Thanks for replying and again sorry for my bad english

Cordialement Bozz !

Try to refuel on Large Star ports, they got plenty of docking ports.
Planets just got 1 or a few docking ports.

Maybe try to deploy a Resupply ship for forward refueling.

Try to defend important planets with Large Space ports too, they can carry alot Weapons/shield to fight even a smaller fleet.

People allready notice the default Resupply ships are to big to build be by default.
You need to redesign them, or research bigger shipyards first.

I think you have to remove your ships one at a time from a Fleet. I don't think there is an option to disband the whole fleet at one time. Select a ship that is in your Fleet and r-click on it. You will see an option to leave the fleet. I think your English is very good by the way.




Rustyallan -> RE: Need some help !! (5/8/2010 3:15:58 PM)

You can mass add/remove ships from a fleet via the ships and bases screen.

Filter by Military then sort by fleet to group all of the existing fleets together.  Select the range and change set fleet to [none].  You can also select multiple ships and set fleet to an existing or new fleet.

Also, if you leave fleet formation automated and leave the ships within the fleet automated, they will disband and form new fleets as reserves are available.
