Hi

I was somewhat surprised that a Space Dock of mine lasted 2 battle rounds against Armaggedon Nubs, and decided to take a closer look. After reviewing the design and playing around a bit, I concluded that this is either a "new" bug, or it is further evidence of my terrible math skills ... Smile

Bug - Space Dock Armor slot buffer Overflow?

Result - More armor than a Death Star...

Requirements - SuperLat, ISB, and RS

If your race has ISB and RS, building a Spacedock with more than 21 SuperLat in the Armor slot will result in some sort of error. 21 SuperLat gives a Space Dock 16,000 armor, 22 SuperLat gives it 49,518 Armor. For a full 24 SuperLat stack, you get a whopping 51,018 armor. In comparison, a Death Star for an RS AR tops out at 31,500 armor (not including M.T. toys). I do not get the same results with a non-RS race. The Space Dock seems to be the only unit effected, as I did a quick check through other ship hulls and SB's. I presume that the 24 slot is to blame.

I have never heard of this bug before now. Frankly, I would be surprised if I am the first to notice this bug. However, I checked through the list, and did not see it. Perhaps someone could verify this? if it checks out, it should be added to the bug list.
