1.05: bug or feature?

June 14, 2003 12:42 PM from

I'm playing my first game in 1.05. My problem is that game doesn't refresh info screens, i.e. when I check Planets miniscreen, it show production that was finished year+ ago, or after changing economical sliders from 60%SP- 40%R current tech still stay at '1 month left' (I assume that 2.5 times larger investments should speed up the process). To refresh planet's info I'm left-clicking on the planet name and then it updates, like 'diplotranslator-10 months -> medical center-next turn).

Any feedback is welcome.

Yes, this is probably a bug, im told that if you hit
the button that called up that screen a second time
it will refresh(f2 if you use hotkeys)

I believe the devs have been made aware of it, wether
or not they will patch it before the expansion, dunno.

My experience with Refresh has been far worse with Research. Improvements & Ships will refresh as soon as I call up the planet screen again, but the Research screen is simply unreliable in the late game. I'll keep getting "Next Month" and not get it next month, or "2 months" and get it next month.

Oh yeah, not to mention I frequently have Research at 0% and still get "Next Month". What's up with that?
