There seems to me to be a high correllation between either a diplomacy window popping up (because the AI wants to talk to you) or an event window (like manufacturing capital) popping up, and the problem that's been reported here where the social and military completion event icons that get stuck at the top of the screen and don't drop.
What they said, in essence: "Let's trade! Ill give you Enhanced Deflectors, if you will give me Diplomatic Relations!" This just happened to me, too. The Korx offered Interstellar Government for Armor Theory, when I was the one with Interstellar Government and they were the ones with Armor Theory.<br
Well, FWIW, there's a difference - I uninstalled 4a before installing 4b. Don't know if that would explain why you're seeing the problem and I'm not.
OK, I got immediate popups for Democray and Federation as well. I noticed that the announcement for Federation is "The Star Federation form of government now available" instead of "is now available".
Well, I think there is an issue with the fact that user desigend ships are saved in a new directory. That should make it easy to fix, then. But the adding/removing parts problem still remains.
Yes! It works.
I suspect, but can't prove, that when you reload a saved game, ships completed at the first turn don't generate the GNN notice or the drop down icon. My reasons for suspecting it are that after reloading and playing for a while I'll find a planet completing a ship and when I go look at the planet I see 2 of those ships in orbit, and I don't remember seeing the notice for the first one. For example in my current game I've got most of my new colonies b
I've upgraded starbases on resources 8 to 10 times so far on 4b (.009) without seeing this. How often do you see it? Did you uninstall 4a before installing 4b? Just trying to figure out differences that might explain it ...
Minor point I haven't noticed reported before: on loading a saved game, ships that have move points left are displayed as, for example: Moves left: 4/0 when it should of course be 4/4. After the first turn this corrects itself.
I uninstalled 4a before installing 4b .008, but installed .009 over .008.
It popped up immediately in the one game I've tried so far on 4b. That was for Republic.
I'm still having problems with the metaverse, can't get logged in. I'm on the .009 build.
On Beta4a, trying to upgrade a ship design had a problem where you couldn't select and delete components. In Beta4b, when I try to upgrade a ship design the old ship does not even appear in the window. I have to start from scratch. Is that a bug or is that intended? Post edited: In case I wasn't clear, clicking upgrade for an existing ship design brings up the design window looking exactly as it does for a new design, except that the ship name is the name of the old ship instead o
Are you on 0.77[b].009? And did you uninstall Beta4a before installing Beta4b?
Speaking of the Metaverse, no matter what I enter on the login screen gets me "The metaverse server returned an unrecognized response. Please try connecting again later."
Have you tried both the Chicago and the California server?
The Alt-Esc issues are better but not gone. You will still get them under some circustmances. I see what you mean - Alt-Esc worked for me 4 or 5 times, but just now gave me the "Invalid call" popup when I tried to restore the window.
That was a Beta4 & 4a bug that I guess didn't get fixed yet. Too bad
It also seems that you've fixed the bug where research rates weren't being restored over a save/restore. I saved a game where I had 10 weeks left to research a tech, and after reloading it was still 10 weeks. On previous betas it was always much longer.
In GC1 after I'd explored most of the galaxy with my survey ship I'd just park it at some strategic spot and use it as an expensive sensor drone.
Yes, noticed that and upgraded to .009. Two upgrades in one day (especially this late at night where Stardock is) is overachieving!
The alt-tab crashes that you mention are gone for me also. Nice job! I won't have to run in a window anymore
I just downloaded 0.77[b].008 (and 0.77[b[.009) and verfied that the "activation" problem is fixed, I can again start from the shortcut. Thanks!
Just installed 0.77[b].008 and starting from a shortcut works again, no more "activation" problems. Thanks!
