Shipyard wont stop building

from GalCiv2 Forums
Now this is not the biggest of bugs\glitches, and I have just noticed it. Early on in my game my two planets that are shipbuilding focused can't stop building ships. When I click on the shipyard and change it to another design, it changes to that. But nothing happens when I tell it to build nothing. It stays on whatever it had been producing earlier.

Fortunately, it isn't too major right now as I only have about a dozen planets. But when an empire gets to the late game stage or when there is an emergency that I need to build ships for.....it can be a real economy wrecker.

Here is the top of my debug file.

I've noticed the same, but there is a workaround (also in 1.1b4):

When you are on the map screen, and select a planet, then select Build Ship, and choose "nothing", the star port will keep building whatever it has been building.

But if you go to the planet view, then the star port, then build ship, and select nothing, it correctly switches to idle.

I change my builds to nothing with no issue in the Civilization Manager screen. Right click on the Shipyard you want to change and do it from there. I hardly ever clcik around to planets anymore since I found out you can do it in this screen.

LoneWolf0912,

Do you have a saved game that reproduces this problem. It has been reported to us before, but I haven't reproduced it yet. If you or anyone has a game that does this, please send it to [email protected].

Or if you know steps to reproduce it, please share them here.

Thank you.

I'll load it up quick and see if it keeps doing it. If it does I will send it on over.

*sigh* Figurees. Works fine now. I haven't had any more problems with my shipyards. This is the most disappointed that a bug went away
