Destroying a race's last planet looses all agents

In-game bug

from GalCiv2 Forums

Hi guys,

I have played Galactic Civilizations 2 Ultimate Edition for 
about 60 hours. I notice that if I wipe out the last planet
of a civilization, I loose all deployed agents!?

It would be very convenient to recall them.

Undercover till the bitter end, no?

 

You can pull them back manually...

This problem has long been known.

One poster who first chronicled it years ago said it was as though the spies became archaeologists studying the dead race.  He documented that if one had an intel level lower than the maximum for the agents-turned-archaeologists when the race ended, then one would later in the game get messages that said the intel level on the extinct race had increased!

Actually, I'm pretty sure that spies being wiped out with the civilization isn't a bug at all. The "archaeologists", on the other hand, are.

Not sure whether James Bond wants to become Indiana Jones, but ok :D
