Strange Elimination of AI

I was playing a game in a Tiny galaxy with 5 competitors. I was getting really nervous about one faction of Sophons who already had twice as many points as anyone else. However, on Turn 42 they disappeared from the map. I got a notification they had been eliminated. I have no idea how or why.


I reloaded an earlier save and tried again. They were eliminated on Turn 43. I still have no idea how they were destroyed; according to the Diplomacy screen, they were much stronger than anyone else, weren't in any actual wars, and had 250 pts compared to a 2nd place 125.


Any idea what happened? I've attached my savefile on Turn 41 for reference.

Both of my Sophon opponents have died now. Either their AI is borked in particular, or the enemies (even the minor species) are rather vicious.

Hello,


That's seems weird indeed. I'll have a look at your save :)


Cheers,


Edit: it appears the AI dissapeared because its empire was in bankrupt and it couldn't pay its debt. We'll look at it in order to find the reasons that leaded it to this situation.

They have been eaten by the Harmony, the new end game crisis. Psst, spread the truth!


Couldn't resist. Just kidding, sounds wierd. Did they disappear on one turn? That sounds strange, that would mean a minor faction conquered them in one turn. Can minor faction conquer systems? If another empire defeated them they should have been in a war and their systems taken.

Probably because they took too many systems, hence why they had twice as many points as anyone else. I know when I went from 3 systems to 4, I nearly tanked my economy because my Dust income dropped 200 from the Unhappiness.

Hi,


Thanks for the save, it has highlighted a problem in how we make the AI expand. We'll fix it asap.


What killed them in your game was that they had -75  (!) because of the over-colonization penalty, hence it couldn't generate any  to save itself. The other Sophon however was probably conquered by another AI later on ^.^
