Had a ship being built and assigned to a fleet. Prior to construction, said fleet was removed via the Task Force Organization. Ship completes and is assigned to "Unknown". Also throws a couple errors in CreateShip and AddToShipHistory. Ship is vaporized. Does not exist on the f6 screen. Ship does not exist in the database either.
I just had this happen also. It was working fine the last time I played and when I started playing tonight the ships that were being built worked fine but the new ones I added tonight had this error. So I guess something is not getting saved.
Hmm now that I think about it I might have moved my cargo ships into the cargo task group before I started up the next two, and I think the that last time I played I always started more ships before moving the newly built cargos into the cargo task group.
Yep it looks like thats what happened.
To reproduce:
Make a task group
open/refresh the f2 screen
delete the task group
make a ship using the task group you just deleted
in the Shipyard Task tab of the f2 screen it should say No assignment under Assigned Task Group
I don't know if its the same bug Erik had but I'm pretty sure that is what happened to me.
