Unable to Place Spies - ToA 1.96

July 20, 2008 10:08:50 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Here is my first Year Zero Victory:
Level: Suicide
Galaxy Size: Tiny
Me: Altarians
AI: Thalans
Completed: May 15
Score: 25200
I colonized one planet and had to capture two planets.

In this game I was not able to place any spies on the Thalan planets.
Was this a bug or do you need to research Xeno Comm. and Universal Translator?

How were you not able to place spies? Did you get a dialog box telling you so, or after selecting a spy o place was it unresponsive when clicking on the planet?

I can bring up the planet screen either by:
(1) selecting the planet and then clicking SPY, or
(2) from the Espionage window select place agent and then select a planet
but then the Place Agent button is greyed out so I can only click DONE.

I tried researching Xeno Comm. and Universal Translator but that had no effect.

Was this happening for all buildings on the planet? If not, which particular building type were you trying to place the agent on - some do not allow agents.

Did you click on any of the buildings for that matter? The button would be greyed out if no building was selected.

No bug, user error on my part. It has been so long since I've placed a spy (usually I just keep one spy handy so I can look at an AI planet) that I forgot how to place one. I thought I needed to click on the Place Agent button and then the spy cursor would appear, rather than that button doing the commit.
