Anomoly "GCAnomolies" doesn't add 100bc to treasury.

from Stardock Forums
This is the first time I have seen this happen. This is with a new game I just started with a fresh download copy of Alpha 5.

When the survey ship explores an anomoly set to this anomoly file it gives the popup with the "Bank error in your favor. Collect 100 bc."
but fails to add 100BC to the treasury.

Unfortunately, I noticed this too late to save a game before exploring an anomoly set to this file, so I don't have a saved game. However,
in comparing this file with "Money01.ANOMOLY" I see a difference in the "type" keyword. MONEY01 has it set to 0, while GCAnomolies has it
set to 2. Could this be the problem?

Cheers,
Jack

Oh, by the way, the comet anomoly ("Money01") works.

Changing type = 2 to type = 0 worked for me. Now it adds 100bc to my treasury.

This continues with the Alpha 5 build (note, the first post to this thread should have
said Alpha 4 build).

All it takes to fix it is to change the "type" keyword in the file "GCAnomolies.ANOMOLY"
from 2 to 0.

Urgh...either this is a really old note or CVS is messing up our text files again...

Actually, I don't even have that file in my cvs directory anymore so maybe it should have been deleted by the DCM...

Then it has to be residual somewhere outside of the Galciv directory where DGM can
pick it up, either on my system or on yours.. I completely deleted the Galciv library
this time and it the file re-appeared.

It probably didn't get removed from Brad's directory, since he makes the drengin build from his directory.

Cari,
What is the status on this file. I am still getting it with the latest build (before today).

Cari,

Here it is again in the Beta. This time I started out with brand new directories from drengin.net on out. Also, I checked the file GC1.XML and it is listed there as well. (This file is in drengin.net\data\gc.)

Cheers,
