Possible Ship Build Menu Bug?

March 5, 2006 11:00:06 AM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I have a problem with my build menu, it occurs when i upgrade a ship i created and overwrite my old ship design. Everything works fine until i save my game and quit. The next time i load up my game if i go to my starport build menu it will show the ship i created plus all of the previous versions of my ship. The only way i can "fix" it is to delete my designs from the ships folder.

Anyone else having this problem?

Yes! This is a very irritating bug. I have also seen where if you select the newest version of the two ships (of the same name, one being upgraded), it still builds the oldest one. I believe that I have determined that this doesn't occur if you click cancel when the upgrade window appears after the upgrade is saved over the old version. I am not entirely sure.

What's even more irritiating is if you go into the ship build menu, select one of the two ships and click 'delete' they both disappear. While this initially seems GOOD, the bad part happens when you go to the 'quick build' menu, at which point the second one (that you can no longer delete) is still there, able to be built.

And having the older versions of the ships appear in the build list increases the odds that you'll accidentally "upgrade" all of your ships to an older version, which has happened to me on several occasions now. And I haven't found a way to stop the process--you have to go back to an older saved game.

To add to this bug, or maybe it is a bit different:

I created a fast transport, with one module for 500 people.

After I researched some miniurazations, I went back and added a second transport module for 1000ppl.
I saved the ship under the same name, but when the upgrade screen popped up I hit cancel. (I don't know why).
Anyways, everywhere I looked it showed the new transport. Build queues, shipyard. But whenever I built one, it came out as the old version (500 people), eventhough the old version did not exist anymore.

I was able to fix it by renaming the new version to fast transport 2, but it was a bit annoying.
