Albion prelude is broken

Yes, I'm using a save from right before the new patch. Looking at the patch notes, my guess is that when the bomber missile spam was reduced, it did something to swarm missiles. I've tried it out with a wasp and it's pretty cool to destroy a centaur using only one wasp.

as entertaining as this is.

my C/GPU is not amused.

Yeah, it slows down my cpu quite a bit. Still though I can't wait to board my first M7M.... I could destroy the universe with a handful of flails.

Hmmm, just a thought.... maybe my M7M destroyed all the gates.

Calm down...
Is your game modified or not? What mods are you using?

It sounds like an issue with a modified save game getting new tfiles and breaking it.

Egosoft enabled a globals setting that controls the number of missiles fired by swarm types. So I guess switching that from off to on messed with save games that had it set to "off" before the patch.

Not the best time to get answers from Egosoft this early in morning.

The impatient part took place over his frustration with no quick answer.
Their really no need to get in such a pickle. If he playing it that much he be back to get a answer

the help he needs

so please don't let a game get you like this. Egosoft work hard to help people and other people try to help the community.

As i said this glitch is game breaking. Cant play something that is broken. Some might say i could just restart and i could. But what happens if i invest another week in the game to only have the same problem.

It's all or nothing.

As already said above, you should back up your save files which should be located in the game directory before reinstalling the game again.

Yep I got the same problem. Was trying to capture Yaki Ryu to build up my marines and some fighter decide to join in the fun so let loose a flail missile barrage then next I know the fighter where gone then the Ryu and my marines then more fighter were blowing up around the sector.
This will be great to a clear a sector of xenon

Are you able to jump out of the sector to one of the unknown sectors where there are no ships and stay there for a few minutes? This might sort it out as missiles do not exist OOS as I understand.

This sounds like a Macross Missiles Massacre.

And that is awesome.

The problem comes when you can't stop.
