Unable to build colony ship

(February 9th, 2021, 08:21)pjs Wrote: I'm not sure if this was the actual problem. Browsing at 1oom's bugfix list it appears that you just can't do orbital bombardment in original MOO1 (the same with kyrub's patch) with the weapon in 4th weapon slot; my neutronium bombs were on the 4th slot and the rest were useless for bombarding shielded planets.

See orbital_weap_4 in https://gitlab.com/Tapani_/1oom/-/blob/m...pbxnum.txt and line 34 of https://gitlab.com/Tapani_/1oom/-/blob/m...ame_bomb.c

Oh, wow - I didn't realize that bug existed, and it definitely makes explains the damage calculation discrepancies involved. I didn't think to try building a bunch of ships with the bombs in the fourth slot! Thanks (admittedly very belated thanks!) for the heads-up!
