Known Issues

Restrictions (these are things that will not change)
  • Aurora is a hobby project coded for use on a UK computer. Therefore, you will need to change your decimal separator to a period, rather than a comma, for optimum performance. Otherwise you will suffer invalid string errors.
  • The maximum year in the game is 9999 (this is a Microsoft DateTime restriction)
  • When using new image files, add them to the appropriate sub-directory before accessing them via the game

Known Bugs
  • If windows are invisible or white, use the Reset Windows button on the Misc tab of the Tactical Map
  • Transit by sub-fleet not working

Working as Intended
  • Starting Tech Points for NPRs cannot be reduced below 100k
  • You cannot cancel race creation during game creation. You can cancel when generating additional races once the game creation is complete
  • Sometimes time increments will be shorter than you specify. This is because something is happening elsewhere in the galaxy and it is causing reduced increments, which is working as intended
  • If you can't load or unload, check your freighter has cargo shuttle bays
  • Using a Movement Template will removing existing orders (otherwise there could be contradictions between the last order given and the first order in the template)
  • Date formats. Some users see the day of the week in displayed dates, which means there is not enough room. This can be fixed in by changing Windows date to shorter format in settings.
  • If you setup a ground forces build queue based on an Organisation node and then manually change the build queue or add extra steps, it will affect the subsequent assignments post-build.

Missing Features (will be added later)
  • No support yet for modifying eccentricity of stars and planets. Will be added in an update.
  • Missing Tool Tips. This was a conscious decision rather than a bug. To get close to the release date, the cosmetic items had to suffer. These will be added over time.
