v1.8.0 Bugs Thread 1.8.0bugs

Hi, don't know if this is WAI, but playing 1. 8 I find that the Researcher I assigned as Academy Commandant is still available to lead research projects.

If you assign him/her to a research project, does that not unassign them from the Academy post?

Now I look and he is unavailable - I think this must have been a refresh issue. All is well

These errors have been fixed and I guess will be in 1.9.0. The issue is that the NPR lost it's naval headquarters and then their naval command and thus the naval side of the game fails

Do you know why the game slows x30?

Version 1.8.0

Terraforming Mars i found switching to another Planet or Tab and back to the Environment Tab for Mars the "Maximum Atm" resets to "0"

Terraforming Mars i found switching to another Planet or Tab and back to the Environment Tab for Mars the "Maximum Atm" resets to "0"

The GUI isn't great, to the point that I agree it's a bug.
As a workaround, you need to click out of the "Maximum atm" onto somewhere else on the same screen before changing screens for the value to stick

I have a bug where my colony on Luna says it has no maximum on colonists yet is complaining about overcrowding.  Perhaps a rounding error?

I can't figure out how to put pictures in the post, so I've attached them below with the database.

What you were doing at the time: Skipping forward in time
Conventional or TN start: Conventional
Random or Real Stars: Real
Is your decimal separator a comma: No, it's a dot
Campaign is about 85 years into

Your Luna colony is over population capacity. The second column of data, the one which begins with "imperial population" is showing the capacity near the bottom being 890 million people. Your colony is 930 million.

You are past the max for the body size

thanks for the tip. I got it working before, but going to the environment tab would be the easiest way to check the progress on terraforming
if i didn't have to reenter the desired value for the gas to add. Know I am using the system window, but this shows less digits.

Thanks, is there any way to increase that number?

No it's based on the surface area of the body and your race's starting stats

The only thing I would add to the above is that race stats can be modified with the SM mode allowing you to increase capacity of all planets. I also think you can set the density modifier when creating species which would have allowed you to set it to any number.

In case you don't know SM mode is space master mode activated by clicking a globe near the right edge of the tool bar. It is used to do things "outside" of game such as creating new ships instantly, modifying stars and system bodies or species. Once activated various screens will have additional functions allowing you to perform those actions.
