The first time I entered a sector with 5 planets the last planet caused 41666 damage but when the IG held me in the sector the second blast hit for 106780! How is this possible, nobody was online? The game was runing v 3.11.56

Thanks

Okay. Here is the order. You move in, all 5 cannons hit. They fire an amount of ore = % Sector setting. If you survive these hits, you are sitting in space (possibly against offensive or other type of figs). You know can Attack figs or Retreat. If you attack and do not kill all figs the cannons fire with the % sector again. (20% means it will use 20% of its ore per shot). The continues until you die or kill all figs. If you retreat and IG grabs you, repeat the entire entry scenario again. If you need some more info on how it all works, I can write up a more detailed description, with examples of planet ore, % sector, figs in space, etc.

Let me rephrase the question: I enter the sector 5 planet hit me for 651, 1302, 2604, 10416, 41666 damage. Next, figs attack for 113561 damage. I then retreat, a IG grabs me and the 5 planets hit me for 325, 651, 1302, 5208, and 106780! All the planet are set to 50%, but after the IG grabs me the last planet goes from having 125T FO too 640T FO in less then a second.

I've seen ore regen like that in older versions of the game on rogue planets. Haven't seen it in quite a while, but if no one was online at the time, something like that might have happened.

it actually happened to me just yesterday. i had sector Q not hitting anything (warped in and out many times till it just said that it was lockin on me) then i started attacking the guy in the sector guarding the planet (i am only one online at time) and i go to Sol to buy figs, and warp back and BAM, the Q is hitting my for 8k everytime (sector) (when i first started mothing, it hit for a 400 and on down to zero) so ya, there is somethin buggy with the Qcannons :) (wasnt a rogue planet)

Looks like ore didnt update on entry, instead it updated when you retreated (or probably more to the point, after it fired it's first shot)

I have checked it a few times, it is wierd it is only the last planet and only after being caught in the IG for the first time. In addition, the last planet is the one with the IG on.
After the second round of cannons, all planets fire as expected.
Last planet :1 Blast - 41666, retreat IG grabs, 2nd blast - 106780, retreat IG grabs, 3rd blast - 53309, retreat, 4th blast - 26573.

Also, nobody was online and it was not a rogue planet
