Can't recreate this one yet but I am guessing you may have damaged something that no longer exists in this version. I need to go through the database and try and figure out what.

By the way, even with my ships at the planet with active sensors on I don't get any idea of the combat values of the enemy.
In the older versions you would see the total combat value, which would give you an idea of how many troops you would need for the fight.
Yes, I have found a bug in ground unit detection - I've fixed it for the next update.

Thanks for the screenshot - that helps a lot. It looks like a problem with the decimal separator. Are you running with windows regional settings set to a country that uses a comma for the decimal separator instead of a period? If so, try switching regional settings to the US or UK and see if the bug goes away.

Do you get this error just once per update cycle or several times?

NM - I found it. Although annoying this error has no game effect. I've fixed it for the next version.

The Shipping Line bug was in v4.1 and I thought I had fixed it. Could you just confirm you are using v4.2? The version number should be on the Game window, or the About window.

Not sure what you mean here. The Survey Points shown on the Task Group window are the survey points generated per hour by the Task Group. The survey points shown on the main map next to a surveying task group during a survey will reduce over time until the survey is finished.

91 error usually means the program was looking for something in the database that wasn't there. I need a little more information first before I can fix it. On the top right of the Events window is a checkbox called Show Errors. If you click it, the events window will contain the text of all the popup errors, usually including where they happened in the program

Oops, the 3.1 is a mistake on my part but the 4.2 is correct. I guess I didn't fix the Shipping Lines problem. I'll look into it again.

This is the shipping line bug for which you provided the screenshot. Did you get any errors during game creation for this game?

I think the shipping line bug is caused when an NPR is created without a shipping line and then the program tries to give the non-existent shipping line some money. I thought I had prevented that situation but I have just found another scenario that could cause it. I'll put out a bug fix that will fix the problem in future but it won't help your current game.
