Rustyallan -> retrofit potential issue (5/7/2010 10:53:26 PM)
|
I noticed that most of my construction ships were getting a bit dated, (1st generation and all) so I did a mass select on the construction yard screen and told them to retrofit to the latest design. Quite a while later, I still don't have any back in service. Since the first thing I did in this game was retrofit a construction ship, I knows that's working.
After deciding I needed some more anyway, I went to queue in the build queues. When I got to my home planet, I found all of the old ships already there waiting to retrofit. This explains why they took so long to come back into service.
So my question is, how is the retrofit location determined. As it happens in this game, my home colony is at at one end of an expansion and I kinda went out from there. It's also the only planet with an LSP. All those old ships had to travel halfway across the galaxy to reach that one colony to retrofit.
I noticed this on military ships as well, but put it down to telling the fleet to retrofit so it tried to find the closest large base to do it at since it skipped all of the SSPs along the way. (it was also the home colony for the fleet since I was just always on the move.)
I'll upload a save if you want, but I'm just not sure if it's a bug or by design. I will say it's weird though.
