Can not re-mine a resource after my previous base is killed

from GalCiv2 Forums
My starbase which was resourcing influence was destroyed, and I built another constructor and moved it to the newly freed resource tile, but it didn't ask me if I wanted to mine it. I tried manually setting up an eco starbase on top of it (which did build) but the info on the starbase says that there are no mined influence bonuses.

I can't imagine what else this could be, other then a bug.

Game is great fun though. I can't wait until the next patch.

Yeah, had this bug 3 or 4 times already. Save and reload fixes this and some other odd bugs you'll run into.

Same thing happens if you wipe out a race and their bases poof. You have to save and reload or neither you or other AIs can claim the resources.

I would agree that this game needs a patch. I'm seeing a lot of little things like this that I can't believe weren't caught and handled during the extensive testing and so far all my games get very unstable in the later stages (seems like similar issues the Civ IV had at release with memory and/or texture handling).

Yeah I've seen same thing. Actually its kinda nice because its often a base near the frontier with a race I'm at war with, then I can deny those resources to them

I believe this happened during the beta. I was a beta tester so I'm wondering why they didn't fix this?
