Somewhat Complicated Issue Under 1.60.457293.1

from GalCiv4 Forums

This is somewhat complicated, but I will try to explain what is happening as clearly as possible.  In the first screen snapshot below, I have just conquered Misam V which owned the shipyard that is visible 2 cells down and to the left.  When I conquered Misam V, the shipyard had some ships based in it which got ejected because the shipyard is now mine.

Here is the problem: the ships that were ejected from the shipyard got placed in the cell just to the right of the shipyard, but I already have a fleet positioned in that cell.  This results in my enemy and I both having fleets in the same cell.  The second screen snapshot shows the 2 fleets. The 5 ship fleet is mine and the 4 ship fleet belongs to the Arceans.

Recommendation:  modify the code that ejects the ships from the shipyard to find an empty cell in which to place the ejected ships.

You could do what most players do and select a rally point for new ships to launch to.

gypsy2299 - that won't solve this issue.  This is the opposing AI being forced to launch ships after losing control of shipyard.  You can't use a rally point point for enemy ships.

I run this when I'm doing some testing. You can move them off the tile usually but I agree it's a little odd.
