Non-Refunded Admin Points

from GalCiv3 Forums

So I got war dec'd pretty early on, had to hide most of my stuff in my starbases for defense but the enemy did manage to pick off several constructors and survey ships.

 

I would have thought that losing these ships would refund the admin points I spent on them, but when I hover admin capacity, its telling me "-3 constructors" and "-6 survey ships" when I only have 1 of each currently alive.

 

Bug or working as intended?

If they are destroyed you lose the points. It's like the administrator or one of his underlings (the admin point) was killed on the ship. However, if you know your ship is going to be taken out or is in an unsafe location, decommission the ship and you will be refunded the admin point.

Yup, to rationalize it I just pretend that the admin is actually on the ship that was lost... ;)
