Any idea how the colonies I won in the second attack ended up behind the ones from the first attack?

Vendeen excuse me for trying to help.... and this game is just a website built in web-code, when it comes down to it, there is a logical way things work. Computers dont know how to be wrong, just human error with the programmer of this game.

It won`t happen if you view your `manage colonies` screen in between attacks. Doing that kind of sets it in stone

I usually wait a minute before attacking another target for borders, if I find something nice.

I find that anything within the one minute mark has a chance of messing borders up :(

If you attack two or more targets within a certain amount of seconds this tends to happen. It happened to me quite a bit while I was marauder. I`d hit 3 people very quickly and the colonies would be all mixed up. Gotta be careful and wait a few seconds after each hit (just like exploration requires).

P.S. SIlver, it`s not ordering by alphabetical order from all the times this has happened to me, it seems semi-random but usually reverse the order of attacks (Assuming 3 cols each: 3rd attack is inside, 2nd middle, 1st is now borders rather than 1 inside, 2, 3 borders)

Black.... if you won the planets all at the same minute, the planets fall back to secondary order/sorting protocol... Which is normally order 1-100 or A-Z. Really it would of been nice if stephen made order that stuff by the second, instead of minute.

However i think this is an extremely easy thing for stephen to fix if BW can get him to look through the code & fix it.

Not a glitch, maybe an oversight by stephen though... but if you think about it there is a logical order to how the colonies order themselves.

And this occurs often when you attack 2 different people within the same minute... game clock, not your house/computer clock. This sometimes works to your advantage & sometime it doesnt.

Examples of that:
A.class for assimulated planets
C.class or clusters top side normally
E.class planets
( OMG anyone notice a pattern yet? )
T.class for viral tainted
S.class (really why do i need to include this one, its rare.)
U.class
X.class

ok i could be wrong, i dont really play anymore & the order might be reverse, but i think it is A-Z not Z-A... i always remember U.classes tending to be pushed towards the button while clusters remain top side.

its a glitch that happens sometime, only downside is when it de-borders the awesome colls you capped in the 1st attack (hypothetically)
