21/18?

April 12, 2009 8:16:42 AM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums

After a lengthy campain agains the Torians (I was the Alterans) I noticed that one of my frigate's hp was 21/18.

 

Is this a glitch or does it just mean they have combat experience??

It's a minor repair bug, which allows repair above max hull. The ship was damaged, and was healing at least 4 HP/turn. If the previous turn helaed it to 17/18 and it gained another 4 points, it would end at 21. The points are real, but temporary - when it takes damage, it will lose them like usual, but they won't regenerate (unless the same situation repeats itself).

I've always wondered about that.  I thought that my ships were getting some sort of HP bonus from a nearby starbase or something.

They going to fix this? Seems unfair.

Unfair? Such a minor thing you can't control? Sigh...

A bug is a bug. Should be fixed, yes?

When the hitpoints get over 100, the effect is obviously much smaller on a percent basis.  I think I saw one of my ships at 166/163 last night.

Still, it's one bug I do not mind!

Technically it's NOT a bug. A bug makes game unplayable (it crashes, freezes,...). A glitch makes game behave differently as intended and affects gameplay. But this one... I'd say those few additional hitpoints are remains of a scaffolding the repair yard forgot to move away, when the ship was rushed back to active duty.

BR, Iztok
