Cannot use custom saved ships

November 17, 2006 1:22:59 AM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I began a game as a custom race with the Korath ship design. After saving a custom ship I made, I went to look for it to build one on my home world, but it was nowhere to be found. I went to make another and saved that and it asked me if I wanted to replace the old one. I did and went back to the build screen and it still wasn't there.

I dunno if this a personal case or if it is universal for everyone. This is the only other ship design I tried using other than the Terran's (which worked fine).

Anyone else experience something similar to this?

What components are you placing on the ship?   Please check the total size that the parts are using before you save it.  Is it exceeding the capacity of the hull?   We found a bug after releasing the beta where certain configurations would allow you to add a component that wouldn't fit.  The game will not let you use the design until your miniaturization reaches a level that allows the component to be used.

Please verify if this is the same bug.   We have come up with a solution for the bug described above.  If you are getting a different bug, please send your debug.err and saved game file to gc2bugs@stardock.com

Thanks.

I am able to build custom ships. Are you creating your own template of a ship, you know, selecting a block of a certain size and building a ship from scratch? I havn't done that yet.

I'm having an issue where the dread lords collector's edition jewelry doesn't show up in DA. Is this a known issue? Or is it a "supposed to be"?

That would explain it. I some how had 61/60 used space on the hull. It works fine now, thanks for the tip.
