Hi all
I have just moved an old (non jump drive) GEO/GRAV survey ship through a Jump Gate and set it to do a Geological Survey of Planets/Moons. Problem is that whilst it is moving from planet to planet it is not giving me any reports (success or failure) so doesn't seem to be doing anything.
How do i correct this and conduct a GEO survey in this new system?
Many thanks

Its doing its job fine. It will not give a report if it failed to find anything, so you are probably just unlucky to not find anything of use. Check the planets in the system-view (the button with the sun on it).

Just to add to above, the far left column of the system information window (F9) has a checkbox for survey states. Blank means no survey has been conducted by your empire, S means a survey has been conducted and nothing of value found, and M means a survey has been conducted and minerals of value were found.

thanks all - will check this out
why don't you get any message though - you do in your own start system - just seems odd
cheers

hmmm - am getting an Error 713 "Class not registered" when i click on the Sun icon. Says i need MSSTDFMT.DLL
my PC is win10/64bit
any suggestions?

I have got around the problem by using the All-in-one install, though would be interested in how to fix it in the standard install.
thanks
PS - the game background is very annoying as i lose the task bar along the bottom of my screen - any way to get rid of it, its just not needed?
