Death Star Bug

[darksier]

I'm playing multiplayer galactic conquest with v1.2 and I've found a bug with the death star.  When there is any imperial hero (emperor, fleet commander, or tarkin) on board the death star, the game will not allow an alliance victory (it thinks the heroes are active combatents in the tactical fight).  I've repeated this situation many times now and I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem.  The bug is pretty serious, it won't let red group destroy the death star.  It also means the alliance is forced to withdrawal.  We've "fixed" the problem by playing by an honor system of not putting heroes on the death star but I feel it shouldn't have to be this way.  Any fixes or mods to address this problem?

I think a big problem is how the auto-assigning of passengers is handled.  Why would you have 30 fleet commanders on one ship?  There is some very big design holes in this game.

Damn these sloppy promoters, and equally damn these apologist devs...

Working on fixing this for next patch.

Yes the fleet commander thing is a problem and I am glad a fix is coming, but what you said isnt a bug.

I dont know about the emperor or a commander, but I had Tarkin on-board the death star just the other day playing a campaign with ven. And guess what? He blew it up! :'( It might be a prob w/emperor or commanders, but tarkin doesnt prevent the ds from dieing.

Yes tarkin doesn't do anything and why would the emperor be in a fleet? Yeah Baron looked for red squadron all the game i hid it in a nebula because i SUSPECTEd he'd go right for it unhororably, and guess what HE DID!!! so yeah i watched his victories go by the nebulas and ties on hunting missions but nope no squadron for them, then by the time the station was dead i hunted them all down, and the DS died ; P

Why wouldn't the Emperor be in a fleet? He can use battle meditation, it's fun to lead massive fleets to battle. What better reason do you need? He's a Sith Lord, I think he'd rather watch some enemies blow up than deal with bureaucrats on Coruscant.
