v1.5.1 Bugs Thread

[Steve Walmsley (OP)]

Minor bug / weird behaviour in the auto-assignment of labs to researchers:

Expected bahaviour: The game attempts to assign as many labs as possible, so either the maximum amount of labs the scientist can use, or the maximum amount of labs available, whichever is lower.

Current behaviour: Clicking on the first scientist sets the amount of labs to be assigned properly.  Clicking on another scientist who could use more labs doesn't increase the amount of assigned labs, even if more are available.  Also, the game NEVER sets the assigned amount over 25 labs, even if the scientist can do more and they're available.

Fixed.

Minor issue:

There are two OWP - Orbital Weapon Platform Ship Classes in Class Design.

Fixed.

Found a bug in Ground Unit Design:

If you delete a superior formation, it's sub-ordinate formations are not deleted.

However, they disappear from the Formations selection as if they had.

Saving, exiting out, and re-entering fixes this.

Fixed.

In the "Civilian Economy" tab, should it not be possible to select "Stable - not destination or Source" for all colonies, not just Home World?

For my tiny AM-colonies I don't want civvies running around setting up weird shops and whatnot - but I still want to use the Supply-demand functions with cargo.

You don't have direct control over civilians, so you can only set that when a colony reaches ten million (was 25m in VB6).

Fighters landed on a mothership will eventually get their deployment clock go into negative. I was able to replicate this consistently.

Fixed.

Here's a weird one. I put a colony on Mars before I ever advanced time at all, and now it won't let me unload infrastructure or colonists there. No errors have been reported, it just doesn't give me the option to add an "unload all installations" order.

Do the ships have cargo shuttles?

[DoctorDanny]

Either the colony or your freighter need to have cargo shuttle bays.
The coolony is new so it hasn't got them and you probably forgot to put them on the freighter

EM sensor created under the Power and Propulsion tab.

1.51 new save
Using multiple projects tab windows (4)

attached picture

EDIT: I actually know what is going on. If you have multiple windows click on create does not create the tech under the proper tech but under the tab of the selected window. I have attached other 2 screenshots should make it clear.
In the bug pic, you see the main window selected is the engine one but I am clicking create of the EM window highlighted as well in the image. The result is a tech with EM name but effectively is an engine.

Is it creating a sensor, or creating an engine and giving it the name of the sensor?

EDIT: Fixed.

Possible terraforming bug,

greenhouse pressure shown as 0 and atmosphere not adding up?

I can supply a db if needed as well


thanks for all the hard work!

Edit:  after several months of adding more Aestusium, it now looks like this, and appears to be calculating correctly again?

I spent half an hour examining everything that I could think of, but missed that. I think I need to get some sleep!

If you make a new version of an existing class with a prototype component in it, you can build it from the shipyard that is tooled for the original class without researching the prototype component. 

Edit:
To reproduce create a copy of existing class that you have a shipyard tooled for, replace one of the components with a prototype and then you can build that new class in the shipyard tooled for the old one without researching the prototype component.

Oh I've got a good one. If a beam FC has a target and has been ordered to open fire against an enemy that is outside of range, and also has area fire orders and missiles are in range, the FC will do the calculations for hitting and damage amount for the missiles, but the damage will be applied to the target.

In the attached file, I killed a precursor ship at >10Mkm range with beams.

V.  1. 5. 1

Engine Component designs are not disappearing when obsoleted but other components are still able to.  Ship design window, No error text, weirdly I was able to obsolete 1 of the two engines but after some time designing a ship, making prototype comps it just wont disappear as obsolete comp.  it was a conventional start, 49 years into the game, intermittent after some times 3 engines were now unable to be obsoleted.

That is strange. I am terraforming Callisto and I have Aestusium at 0,2182 and it shows correctly in Atmospheric Pressure and in Greenhouse Gas Pressure.
