My starting sector is at one end of the main chain of sectors. The Mimot are also in it. I had an exploration treaty with them, so I could see where their ships were moving. They had survey ships, constructors, colony ships, and military ships that seemed to be ignoring range limits and moving to the last sector of the chain.
Why are they ignoring the range limits? Is it the same bug that has been in GalCiv3 since Crusade was released that allows AI ships to ignore range limits?
I'm not including all the probes, since they have unlimited range.
Also, why are the ships going directly to the sector at the end of the chain? How do they know that sector exists? How do they know how to get there in a straight line? I know it is possible they have an exploration treaty with one or more of the races, but do they?
I have two saves that show this. The first is at Week 145. It shows one probe in the last sector and a lot of other ships in other sectors that are headed that way.
The second save is at Week 200. I no longer have an exploration treaty with the Mimot, but I do have one with the Terran Alliance, so I can see some of the Mimot ships. There is one constructor in the last sector next to some thulium where the Terran Alliance has built a starbase. Was the constructor going there to build a starbase? It is a long way from its home sector using the subspace streams, but it is just a very short distance ignoring the streams. It still had to ignore the range limits to get there, unless that area with the thulium is considered to be in range by measuring the short distance.
I know ships can pass through areas that are out of range to get to an area that is in range. Still, something is wrong here.
Finally, I used the console commands "fow" and "god" to see everything and to see where the Mimot ships were going. For the save at week 145, they were sending constructors to various resources in the last sector, one colony ship to a colonizable planet in the last sector, military ships to attack the precursor sentinals in the last sector and caretaker ships to the tile in the last sector that is closest to their home sector.
For the save at week 200, they were sending multiple constructors to the same resources in the last sector, including the thulium already claimed by the Terran Alliance. Some military ships were still going to the precursor sentinals. The colony ship was going home because the planet had been colonized by the Krynn.
One other thing to note. The last sector is the home sector of the Krynn, and the Mimot are at war with them at week 200. They weren't at war at week 145.
