Do you know about the bug server?

Start/All Programs/Storm Eagle Studios/Distant Guns.../Report a Bug.

This shortcut launches your browser and takes you to our bug report server. There you can type in a text message and attach files (game_log.txt, saved batles and campaigns, etc.). It's a good idea to zip the attached files before attaching them, because there seems to be a limit of 2-3megs on the uploads you can do at once.

Note that where you type in the text message, there's a box where you can change the type of message. One of the types is "suggestion", in case you have any ideas you'd like to see in the game.

Anyway, using the bug report server is the way to get your info to the people who need it. I'm not in tech support and in fact don't know much at all about how the game works.

Can anybody tell my, WHY and against WHOM Petropavlovsk try to execute collision manoeuvr here? (Second line goes stright to the enemy)
Your picture is too small for me to see all the details. Is there any way you put it up at a larger size, or make it display larger? I can't read enough Russian to find the button for that on your site .

Anyway, I agree that ships sometimes think they're going to collide at strange times, and then take inappropriate action. It's something that could be improved. So please send in the following things when you make a bug report to the server above:

1. Saved game files from just before and just after the problem occurs.
2. The game_log.txt file, which is in the main DG folder.
