Graphic Bug and Other Problems (modding related)

from GalCiv2 Forums

Hi! After doing some work on some modding, I notice that the navigation centers and all other improvements with a + speed bonus do not show their bonus in game. I know it works from a lot of testing. I don't know if it was anything I did, as I never really played the Arceans before, and if could easily by that I didn't notice until now. In any case, is there a way to fix this?


In a similar note, I've been experimenting with giving some improvments a - planet loyalty (resistance) bonus, but they don't show up in game. Is this another GUI problem, or is it really broken? And either way, is there a way to fix it?

Speed enhancements usually function, did you alter their improvements file?

As I said, the speed enhancements work fine, they just don't show up in the improvement's info box. I did add a +1 speed for the Stellar Forge. There are also a number of other additions and modifications I did across all the tech trees, but that was the only speed related change.

An update: I just noticed in the xml files that the Terran's Innovation Complex also gives a +1 speed bonus. That bonus had never shown up in my game, but it still works, so I'm fairly possitive now that the graphical problem was always there, and wasn't caused by something I did.

I did a few tests, and it appears that negative influence doesn't do anything. So much for that idea.

I did a few more tests, and got the same result. However, I did learn that possitive resistance does indead work, although even with very high values (+100), you only get maybe one or two dozen extra turns before the planet flips.
