Official v4.7 Bugs Thread

[ussdefiant (OP)]

For some reason i'm getting an overflow error in LoadSalvos whenever i go and advance an increment. The recently-discovered next-door NPR probably has something to do with this.


Database can be gotten here for bug fixin: http://rapidshare.com/files/314010896/S ... e.rar.html


Edit: a second database i have going on my laptop has a 0.00 colony cost planet i just went and discovered not showing up in Potential Colony Site window. I'm fairly certain it's not occupied by anyone...

The Class Design window isn't coming up. Hard to describe, I am using windows7 and the small preview panel shows it when I hover over aurora in the taskbar but when I click on it nothing is displayed. I reset window positions and still nothing. All other windows appear correctly.

You mentioned that you created some designs for this version in the test game, the Mayflower design is classed as a FT but is a colony ship. Not sure if that is a bug in ship auto-generation or if you created them manually, you just forgot to change the ship type descriptor?

With the new leaders, I am seeing the occasional (10%) of leaders with no bonuses at all.  I think the code is trying to give them bonuses from other fields, and if it does not generate any that match the leader type then they get no bonus at all.

I was getting this as well Beer, I thnk its caused by Steve having some exceptional screen real estate!

I managed to fix it by shutting all windows except the menu bar, doing a reset window positions and a refresh all from the Misc menu

hope that helps

Not really a bug, but it's been a bit of a pain for me.

In the new research screen, when you assign a project, both the tech and the project leader stay in the selection windows.  can make it a little confusing if you forget what your researching and who with.  When you queue the projects they disappear out of the selection window as they used to, so I'm hoping it will be an easy fix to remove them from the selection window for an actual active project.

Error in Load Salvos ...... Anyway around this error so I do not have to start again

[Andrew]

On entering a system
Error 3314 was generated by DA0.Recordset
The field'RaceSysSurvey.Name' cannot contain a Null value becasue the required property for this field is set to True / Enter a value in this field

The survey ship then vanished and the Jump point aquired a Null destination

When renaming Ground Units.  If you try to rename the unit at the top of the list for that colony it renames the previously selected unit instead  

[schroeam]

In the manage shipyards screen the New Name button to allow you to pick a name from the list associated with that class does not work.  It comes up with a "No name type specified for this class".  This happens even though each ship constructed is automatically given a name from the list that "does not exist".

In the Technologies page,

Economy increase, and Missile Production capacity increase is missing.

Don't know if this a bug or 'operator error' but in the Class Design window I don't appear to be able to assign fighters or FAC designs to make a strikegroup for a ship with hanger bays.  I haven't used fighters for some time so I don't know if I've missed something.
Edited to add:
If I shutdown and restart Aurora the fighters become available.

[welchbloke]

When I try to design a PDC if I set the type to 'PDC' I get an alert in the design errors box that says 'Freighters require at least one Engineering Spaces'. Engineering spaces are not an available choice for type PDC. If I add a damage control component the alert goes away.

I'm also getting the Error 6 Overflow error in LoadSalvos on time increment, started 3 years in

[Hawkeye]

I got this error 3 or 4 times in a row every 5-day-increment. It then went away for about 3 months gametime and has now reappeared.

Error in NPRPopPlanning

Error 91 was generated by Aurora
