v2.0.2 Bugs Thread

[pwhk]

If jump engine size is exactly the minimum size tech, the dropdown labels it as "No Squadron Jump" but the description does have a proper Max Squadron Size

SJW: Fixed for v2.1. Display Bug only.

There is a rare bug which causes the raiders to spawn troops on your planets (for me it's only been mars)

https://i.imgur.com/7hHWPue.png

In the pic you can see i just detect a population out of no where (if it loads) after a 1020s turn.

I can detect their ships literally days flight away from sol and in the case of their troop transports (of which i have killed many) i can detect them even further out.

On top of that i have a fleet of destroyers in orbit of mars and STOs looking for ships.

As far as i am aware there is no possible way the raiders got a ship in, landed troops and left in their ships in 1020s without me detecting them.

Seen in 2.   0.   2, in a game lasting around 25 years:
- Fleet Organization icon opens the Naval Organization window.   
- Lots of officers retires before they are 35, or at 42: is it intended?
- Shipyard Tasks tab reports a ship under fabrication, but the shipyard in the Shipyrads tab is marked with "No Activity" in the Current Activity column: is it intended?

SJW: All working as intended.

All 3 are WAI and no actual bugs
- A name difference issue between the Tooltip and the Window Title , but you manage your fleets in the Naval Org window.
- lowest rank retires at early 30s, 2nd rank at mid 30s, 3rd rank at early 40s. That shows the normal fluctuation of personnel. Higher flag ranks stay quite a bit longer.
- the shipyard tabs shows actions that influence the shipyard itself, as in increasing construction size and slipway numbers.

OK how about this one.

I salvaged a rift raider wreck.

I got 4x 'Magnetic Mirror Fusion Reactor R4' unloaded to Earth.

I then tried to design a ship requiring exactly this and 'Use Alien Tech' via the miscellaneous checkbox for the design.

Refreshed as nothing showed up, whereupon the components list shrank and no power plants at all were visible (there is an R3 version already researched for the player race which is visible when the alien checkbox is not checked).

'2.0.2 Function #2524: The given key was not present in the dictionary.'

See screenshot Alien dictionary 01.jpg.

SJW: Fixed for v2.1

When organizing fleets, it is possible to create a sub-fleet of a sub-fleet and to move them from fleet to fleet even while nested. However the organization of nested sub-fleets past the first level is not preserved following a save and restart.

Steps to reproduce.
Create 2 sub-fleets of Battle Fleet called Sub-Fleet A and Sub-Fleet B
Drag Sub-Fleet B into Sub-Fleet A so it looks like this.
 Battle Fleet
   Sub-Fleet A
      Sub-Fleet B
Save the game, close and restart aurora.
Both sub-fleets will be organized directly under Battle Fleet.

SJW: Fixed for v2.1

Not sure if this is something that's known already, but Mercury is listed as tidally locked in 2.0.2

It is not tidally locked IRL in the traditional sense. It is in a 3:2 resonance orbit around the sun. That is, for every three orbits around the sun, it spins twice.

This is important in terms of colony cost, since there isn't a spot where you can permanently hide from the sun on Mercury.

SJW: Aware but WAI

Had this happen as well, though given what the Raiders are based off of in 40k I figured they had a webway portal or something, haha.

Maybe not technically a bug, but when placing a Deep Space Population, you get a pop up to enter its name. There's a "cancel" button that I thought should cancel the creation of the DSP, but it doesn't actually cancel it and basically just closes the pop up.

Also, the fields "NPRs generate Aeather Rifts" and "NPRs encounter Raiders" in the game creation screen are still missing info texts in 2.0.2.

SJW: Cancelling naming popup with now cancel creation. Tooltips added.

This is old issue that was reported from first version of Aurora C#. I don't think Steve ever addressed this. Maybe now with squadron mechanics, this could be solved?

SJW: Fixed now

I've been having a large number of game lock-ups upon system generation. This occurs when a new system is generated, and is characterized by the program "freezing", becoming unresponsive and pegging 1 core of my CPU at max utilization until I end the process via the task manager. No error numbers or popups are displayed, the program just locks up.

Replication:

- Create a new game, *deselecting "Known Star Systems"*
- Turn on Space Master mode
- Open the System View window
- Click Create System repeatedly until the lockup occurs.

I've had it lock up on anywhere from the 1st new system all the way up to the 168th. But it will always, eventually hit a system generation that causes this error.

I stumbled across this due to my penchant for creating non-Sol starts, and creating numerous new systems until I found one that met my parameters. Doing something like that makes it quite easy to stumble across - I suspect it could happen during the normal course of play during system generation via jump point exploration. This way just forces it to trigger much quicker and in an easily replicable manner.

I had another conventional start game where I was attacked by raiders (this time, in the first year, before I even had TN tech!) and they attacked my shipyards, but reduced one to -3 slipways. I'm attaching the database this time. Also I was able to defeat the enemy ship by rushing a plasma carronade STO...

SJW: Previously reported and fixed

The small craft refuelling system system only works between ships of 1000 tons or less (the tanker and the ship being refueled have to be 1000 tons or less).

The description really ought to include that information. Also, it appears that a craft larger than 1000t that has both a normal and a small–ship refueling system cannot use either. In my opinion it is always a design mistake to put more than one refueling system on any ship, so the game ought to give a warning for that the same way it does for missing bridges and engineering spaces.

SJW: Updated description and added code to prevent more than one refuelling system

On 2.0.2. When creating a new game with Known Stars **deselected** games freeze and does not generate properly the DB.

I do get the SRS rules now and like the idea of small fighter class refuelling logistics. In fact I am using it currently with small sub 1kt explorers and support/S&R tankers.

I didnt return to this because its minor and I didn't want to burden Steve with trivia but yes the small refuel system seems to prevent using a standard refuel system if they are both on the same ship. Which cannot help gameplay and only occurred due to testing in a state of confusion about rules.

I did test inter-ship refuelling just to be on the safe side and it works fine. Refuelling a ship with small refuel system from a ship with a standard refuel system works and if you try to refuel any ship size from a mixed fleet with both systems in separate ships that works too, so ... nothing to report
