KNOWN BUG: IC exploit

[csantek]

Ic

Hi guys,

I am really desapointed and mad! As I just learned that anyone could cheat in MP AND SP with its CI when putting the supplies at zero level thanks to the right click button. So that you can get many IC more. Something quite undectectable and mostly annoying for players who hate cheaters!

Please tell me if the problem has already been reported.

Do you plan to correct it for the next version?

how is this cheating?

IF you start with 20,000 supply, why make more? use that first.

No no it really boosts your IC, after even if you build supplies after, you still have many IC more than normal. And I heard that only the hoster could do it.

I am talking about cheating not production choices.

*I* plan to fix it???... Errr, maybe you miss my position in this whole scheme, but I'm a humble forum moderator and dedicated HOI betatester, but I ain't the programmer and I'm not employed by Paradox I can only pass on the word

 

[csantek]

Argh sorry then. I though you were employed by paradox.

Did they answered something?

You did not answered my e-mail: where are you from? I did my a part of my military service in Braschaat.

I'm from Mortsel, which is about 4-5km from Antwerp. Brasschaat is not too far away.

It's not correct. Everybody can do it during a multiplayer game.

I don't quite understand... what exactly is the cheat, and how is it done ?

Basically you can left drag 3 out of 4 sliders all the way to the right, and right click them in place while keeping the left mouse button depressed.

This will effectively run your IC output at 300%, a major exploit/cheat.
