v5.56/v5.60 Official Bugs Thread

[IanD]

Not really a bug as such, but I noticed after discovering a hundred or so systems now when my survey vessels enter a new system that is already known to another race I do not get for example "An exploration of a jump point in the NSV 14784 system has revealed the new system of HR 8853" but just that my survey group has completed orders to divide indicating to me that I am perhaps on the right track to locate an alien home world. The grammar's not great in the original statement either!

Minor bug. After an NPR is conquered their teams do not show up on the F2 screen but are still available for pickup on the F12 screen, and can be dropped off in a new location, but do no work.

Can i do somethings for this?

As I posted in the Academy thread, it's possible to build PDCs that are empty of any internal componets, and with duranium armor, only cost 1 ton of duranium. When damage eats through the armor and strikes the "internal" components, the game spams errors like

Error in ApplyInternalDamage
3201: No current record

times five. Afterward, the duranium chunk without any duranium anymore remains (although the officer's bed seems to!).

I only see this error when I have Min Inc greater than 0.  Is that when this was generated?

True!

I set Min Inc to 0 and now the "Orders Complete" event not be multiplied.

Easy 

Thanks for help.

Sorry, but not having a 3d for 5.54, i must report here.

When i create a setup with 10 Nations controlled by me, an NPR appears on Earth. How can this happen? And better, how can i solve this?

Is there a fix for the overflow error in GetMaxPotentialSensorRange yet? Because it's popping up every increment now and that's a bit of a show stopper. Apparently it should have been fixed before, but wasn't.

Unrelated, but still bothering me: I accidentally made the game write huge log files in c:\logs, and apparently I have a supratendency of spoilers in the galaxy, beating each other senseless. Someone said that switching them off in the initial game screen (the "load game" window) would at least prevent new spoilers from being generated, but every time I load the game, the checkboxes are on again.

P.S: maybe the two are not entirely unrelated?

OK, point #2 is taken care of. I've figured out what the Save button is good for (it could use a new name, though). But does it disable the AI moving the spoilers, or just prevent the generation of new ones?

If the box is unchecked, prevents new ones.

Sometimes a ship being constructed doesn't get the full message in the event log.  Instead, it just lists the first part of a ship's name and then truncates the message.




Ships of that type were using the Jordan name set.  It also happens in other name sets, but those I can't recall offhand and didn't keep track of.

I think it's got to do with the ship name having two spaces in it, but that's just an anecodotal guess.

Loaded my save game today and am prevented from advancing more than 30 days by a cascade of errors:

Error in GetClassSize
Error 3159 was generated by DAO. Field
Not a valid bookmark

Error in CheckSurveyShipAssignments
Error 3159 was generated by DAO. Database
Not a valid bookmark

Error in CheckSurveyShipAssignments
 Error 91 was generated by Aurora
 Object variable or With block variable not set

Error in CheckSurveyShipAssignments
Error 3138 was generated by DAO. Databsse
Syntax error in ORDER BY clause

Error in CheckSurveyShipAssignments
Error 3159 was generated by DAO. Database
Not a valid bookmark

This is v.  5. 60, and I'm using Win 7.  The previous save (from ~3 IG years prior) runs without issue.

From the 5.50 thread:

Code: [Select]

When I go to the galactic map, I get "Error 76.  Path not found in "flags\".  I do have the flags folder in the correct place, and there are flags in it.
This is still a problem in 5.60. I didn't change any subdirectories. Also, I have a file named "Extra4Flags.zip" in the Flags folder. I unzipped it first into a subdirectory of the same name and then directly into the Flags folder, but to no avail.

I recently found my first ruins, and I switched off spoiler races recently, to save CPU time.
