I have no clue how to do that.

You mean that You don't have a Microsoft Access (part of Office package like Word and Excel)? or You don't know something else? I have very low bandwidth upload so it may be a bad idea for me to fix it for You.

Both. I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to do and I don't have the Office package.

- I set a cargo TG to load Mass Drivers on Earth - where 2 MD were available - and unload them on Titania.
- Got the 'oops' event, let the TG make its first travel to Titania.
- When the TG was on its journey back to Earth, opened the orders panel (F12), deleted all orders, set a new order : Refuel from colony (Earth), click +5 days
- Event log :

20th March 2032 06:00:01,Sol,FT Gloire #A has completed orders

& TG refuelled to 100%.
- Click +5 days
- Event log :

The order is probably set to repeat.

[Herode]

Hmmmm....  Yes ! It was.

[Dutchling]

OK. Put Stevefire.mdb (it's in game folder) in RAR archive and send it to my email. I will send You forum PM with my e-mail address.

I am not sure if this a bug or a feature but it ridiculas, and needs to be fixed.

I had a planet with a Division of troops on it for a long time, and only just moved in a colony. On occasion if the colony is attack by robot guardians and suffer losses. The colony surrenders. Even though the Division was hardly affected plus the ships in orbit surrender.

Now I been attack by an NPR even though I am winning the battle they managed to salvo the colony and guess what it surrendered and the Ships in orbit surrender.  Yes most the colony would of been wiped out as far as people but the division of troops stationed there probably not. The ships in orbit considering I still got a fleet in the system probably not. Its a bit silly. It needs to be looked into.

Have found a new possible bug regarding detection of ruins - it appears that placing a colony on a world where there are ruins will show up the 'Abandoned Installations -??' details even when I haven't surveyed the planet and formally detected them yet.

Assuming these are the evil precursor infested ruins I have heard so much about - detected a precursor PDC or two on the planet so marked it as a colony so I'd remember where it was...

I'm doing a Conventional run, and I'm only a few years into the game, only now whenever I advance the time, I get 5-13 Error 94: Error in LoadOrders, Invalid use of Null
and then a handful of Error 3021: Error in CheckSpecialOrders, No Current Record. 
Going to the Fleet screen alternates Error 94s and Error 381: Error in PopulateMoves, Invalid Property Array Index, for a whole while. 

None of these errors are fatal, and I'm pretty certain they're because I set something wrong, but I'm not sure what it is I did wrong. . .

[ardem]

I would go through each fleet and remove all orders as well as any default or conditional order. Sometimes these things can fix the issue.

[ExChairman]

Not sure what have happend.

Started up my game to day and on Alpha Centauri A-V my citizen's are in a bad mood clamouring for protection , Why I got a division of combat troops on the rock, possible even two of them, as well as some engineers, almost everything is gone...

After checking my log I found that I distrubed some robotic defenders, when I killed one of them all the enemy? population surrendered...

The worst part is that this happend 6 months ago.... A bug or what...

Those people don´t want to be protected by grunts, they want to be protected by big honking space-guns.

Build a couple PDCs or station a system defense squadron there, and they will be happy again.

Re. the surrenderin. Yep, bug.

I thought Steve had squashed that one in the latest version, but apparently not.

[ndkid]

I've never seen one like this before, so I thought I'd log it.

Error in GetSystemThemeName

Error 3075 was generated by DAO.Database
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Name = 'Queen's' and RaceID = 1076'

Looks like the quote in "Queen's" needs to be escaped.

I don't think he can escape them, Steve normally just ends up removing the single-quote from the database entry.
