Selected ship told to move twice, icon stays, select circle moves 1 tile, descriptive text moves 2 in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

After a game restart (all the way from the desktop) I renamed my surveyer ship to 'enterprize". Then I told it to move one tile to the right (if the direction matters). The picture of the ship stayed where it was and the selection circle and description text moved with it. I told the ship to move again (again to the right). The ship's picture stayed where it was, the selection circle stayed where the first move left it, and the description text moved to the new locat

This still happens on Beta 3. The first pressing of the turn button acts and feels like something is being done, but just what is being done is a real mistery to me.

Reply to Planet list scroll bar remains hidden in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

The planet list scroll bar is now visible, but just barely. In fact, most, if not all scroll bars that I have looked at are very difficult to see.

Reply to Scrollin the map Bug???? in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Are all of you having this problem in fullscreen mode? I can't move the mouse to an edge to get scrolling in any direction, but I was guessing that had something to do with my being in windowed mode.

GC/OS2 used to have solar resources. I was dissappointed when GC1 didn't.

Reply to saving ship designs in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

I have already looked at the files containing the description of the ships provided by StarDock, and it looks like the technical support is already there. In GC1 they provided for extensive customization of the game. I have to believe they will do the same for GC2.

On beta 2 the stats were actually climbing. I was getting higher quality planet increases with each game I played. I have not checked for this one on Beta 3 as yet.

Reply to planet/ship list disappears when returning from a star port screen. in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Of course, in GC1 we didn't have the spaceport window, and were able to go directly to a planet view with the planet list still up. This has all changed. Now, if you want to buy a bunch of colony ships based on the minimum number of turns left (a close enough approximation of less cost to finish), you have to go to the starport window several times. Being able to choose which planet's starport you want from the planet list without having to recall the planet list and

"c" key fails to center view on a currently selected ship. in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

There are several key functions that seem to operate intermittantly, such as the "c" key when a ship is selected, and the enter key for next turn. I haven't noticed any others just yet, but I will be watching for them.

Reply to At game startup - tax rate has no affect on overall approval in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I don't think that it's related to displays being updated. The overall approval in the domestic policy screen should be updated immediately when you change the tax rate. Otherwise, how can you tell what the affect is of your change?

planet/ship list disappears when returning from a star port screen. in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Select a planet from the planet list (single click to get the planet data on the main screen). Then click on the starport button. Now, when you return, the planet list is gone. If you wish to continue working with the planet list, you have to call it up again, and get repositioned within it.

"turn" button should not work when tech or planet screen is up. in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

This is a real UI problem. Advancing to the next turn when viewing another screen can have serious consequences in game play. PLEASE, inhibit the turn button when any other screen is displayed over the main map screen.

"find" still finds ships on autopilot --- Beta 3 in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

With all ships on autopilot (all 2 of them), clicking "find" or pressing the tab key goes to one of the ships on autopilot. Unlike on beta 2, now it always does this, instead of just once a turn.
