negative raid loot - 5/28/2013 11:00:33 AM

Recently I raided a small colony using a fleet of 40 destroyers with two assault pods each. After one raid succeeded, I immediately launched another, which succeeded very quickly too. Except this time around I was presented with a report indicating that my troops pillaged -435 credits, which indeed vanished from our treasure hoard. I guess the corresponding function which computes the raid loot should be fixed to state result = max(computed,0) to prevent such things from happening.

That is on the fix list for 1.9.0.2, you should update.

If you already did, it is a bug...

When a pirate raids a mining base, they sometimes seem to loot a lot more stuff than seems reasonable to be at the base.
Don't have a save as only just noticed a very large loot from a mining base. (using latest patch (02))
I'll monitor this some more, and if it happens again, try for a save.

Must have pried that last emeros crystal out of a already built weapon or something.

Hi,

I'm playing as an empire. Pirates send troops to loot my planet, but it's very well defended. The ships are gone, the pirates are no match... But they still loot ressources and money from my world !

Is it normal ? The Galactopedia states that a pirate Raid has to win against the defenders to loot a planet. Obviously, it's not the case since they loot the planet also when losing.
