Potential Borg Bug

posted on January 13th, 2011, 1:07 am

Hi guys.

I'm not entirely sure whether this might be a bug or if I'm doing something drastically wrong, but I can't seem to build any of Borg ships; Cubes, Diamond, Sphere, etc. As soon as the ship has been clicked for construction, and the three or so 'traits' have been allocated, it just does nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

click the icon of the ship after the mods have been selected and it starts building

welcome to the forums bboynexus. your membership card will arrive on tuesday.

as alanalpha says, when you have clicked the modules you want, click the button with the picture of the borg ship and it will build (if you have the money)

ive attached a screenie with an arrow pointing to the button. the example is for a sphere.

btw you can make the ships from the starbase without module selection, just like other races do.

Thanks for the replies, guys.

I've seen a youtube video of Borg ship construction, but for me the small thumbnail of the Borg ship you have selected for construction doesn't appear.

Hence, why I thought I was suffering from a bug.

you have to selet 1 module for each horizontal row before the button will appear, it has to be all modules.

That was indeed the issue. Thank you very much. Feel kina silly now.

dont feel silly, borg gameplay is definitely different. its been suggested before to allow ships to be fitted with less than all their modules, but that would add many many new odfs to the game, which is a problem. so its unlikely to ever happen.

hope you enjoy your time in the community.
