Beta 3 Bug: 0 production left but doesn't complete

May 15, 2007 5:01:42 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Seen this in the last 2 betas at least. If I conquer a new planet the improvement at the top of the queue (typically some sort of factory upgrade) will read 0 turns left. It will stay that way forever unless you buy it or move it down a spot in the queue or cancel it outright and rebuild.

Anyone else seeing this?

If i upgrade a ship to a cheaper version then production will stop in all the planets reading zero time left to produce.

Various other circumstances can cause this as well. You have to select somthing else and then switch back immediately, usually this fixes the problem.

If i'm in a busy game i will often loose production on 'zeroed' production planets for ages untill i happen to look at the planet for some other reason.

the only time i've seen anything similar, is if i'm lacking the tech to colonize the planet, i can still invade it but i wont get any production unless i get the colonizing tech.

I have been noticing this while playing a custom race with the superHive ability. If I capture a world with a factory half built, it will say 0 turns to complete, and it will never complete. If I try to buy the factory, it will cost me more than 400bc. If I buy the same kind of factory on the same world from scratch, it will cost me less than 150bc. I think it has something to do with the super hive discount not being calculated right for worlds conquered by influence or force.
Scincerely,

I think you may have hit it. I have been playing the Thalan's lately (Super Hive) and it's always stuck at 0 turns on a factory improvement/upgrade.

So yes, must be a bug with the Super Hive ability when conquering a world either by force or influence, it gets messed up with the first factory improvement.

Forwarded a bug report to Stardock, but I didn't have any screenshots or a game example to give them.
