Planets seen at unexplored areas

#1 Post by defaultuser »

Playing 0.4.6 stable.

Came across an odd situation. Off out of scanning range, a bunch of Unexplored systems can be seen. When clicked on, instead of just seeing a ? I get a faint look at the planets there. See screenshot.

Y'know we keep finding things we forgot to put into the Changelog?

You're playing Trith, right?

If you're not, there's a bug.

Trith now have Telepathic Detection, they know where all that horribly psychic pain is coming from—we introduced the basic ability to reveal stuff so I thought it'd be a good plan to reduce the Trith basic detection range but let them know where inhabited worlds are, I like it, it's cool. They now make for an interesting choice of crew for scoutships, Laenfa can see further but Trith can detect more, it's within X jumps, possibly 5, so starlane setting will make a difference.

No, Egassem. I have captured some Trith worlds and there are Trith-crew ships fairly nearby.

That would be it then.

Need to document this better, how clear is it in the species description?

Ok, this time you can't blame Trith. There aren't any in the game at all.
