Description: I was the Free Drones and managed to Mind Control one of
the Usurper bases. We were
at Vendetta. The normal pop-up window appeared, the one where it
says:
"Free Drones capture Spires:Ascendant! 28 energy credits diverted
from local nets."
I closed the window and I received a message from the Usurpers,
asking for a truce.
I agreed and closed the window. The Base Control Screen then
popped-up. Inside the Base
Control Screen I got another pop-up message saying my Probe Team has
succumbed to the effects
of the Mind Control probe. I closed that message and got a message
from Marr about breaking
the truce. When I clicked the Diplomacy tab, I was at Vendetta again
and integrity had
dropped to faithful.

something it switches immediately to "Stockpile Energy" and gives no
warning even when you

activated.

About the save: Load as a
multiplayer PBEM game. Begin Foreman Domai's turn. Living Standard
builds a pressure dome, and immediately switches to "Stockpile Energy"
with no pop-up offering to zoom to the city. This even if "Stop for
facilities built" is chosen in the Warning preferences.

Description: Next is a change request for the FACEDIT - is there any
way to put point totals for each
change? Example - Having a ++RESEARCH, and --PROBE comes to a
total of 0 points.
Adding in a free NETWORK NODE for each base makes the total,
say 15 points. That
way, factions could be 'balanced' by getting point totals
that were in the same ball park. -
Say all factions must be 50 points or less.
