| Description
|
Note: Previous save-game files are not compatible with this version of the game!The v1.03 patch adds the following enhancements:- \"Spoil Over 50\" option: When enabled, any surplus over 50 units for each resource at the beginning of a market will spoil. This is another \"classic style\" option.
- \"Event Level\" option: Options are Low, Medium and High. This affects the maximum value of the personal random events (before each players\` turn). Low: $800, Medium: $1700, High: $2500. Please note that this maximum amount can only happen on the very last turn, since the values gradually increase from the beginning of the game. The previous default value was $2500, but some people felt like that was too much, hence the new option.
- Now supports the Space HoRSE Internet Game Matching program (separate download).
It also contains the following bug fixes:- Windows XP/2000 crash-upon-launch issue. (Windows XP users no longer have to run in Windows 98 compatibility mode.)
- Some movies on some video cards would play back with a black picture.
- (single PC) Doesn\`t convert lower case letters to upper case, forcing you to hold down shift to type names.
- (single PC) Certain letter keys were acting like F-keys.
- If a HoRSE ran away from improper installation location, the game would get stuck waiting for a reply from the players.
- Some players could start walking before the market was started.
- Synchronization issues in the market.
- During a CPU player\`s turn, if the host clicked very fast through the turn, it could throw the clients out of sync. There is now a .5 second minimum pause between each click to prevent this. Solar Flares event sometimes wouldn\`t be in sync on client PC\`s.
- Species files were case-sensitive. If one player\`s species file was lower case and another player\`s was upper case, the species wouldn\`t show on both PC\`s.
- If a player had less than $200 and got a personal random event, it wouldn\`t always be in sync on all PC\`s.
