Several bugs

Submitted by Twad on Wed, 2008-04-02 14:30. Bug Reports

Okay..

1- Im playing in a game with about 8 CPUs (in a large cluster map i generated an placed only 6 start locations in.., no neutrals, medium number of CPUs, galaxy already explored for everyone, on hard), and i allowed in the game settup that all players could see everyone else score.. (i wanted to see how i was faring against the CPUs) and whenever i try to look at the comparison chart in the empires "page", the game crash to desktop with an access violation to XYZ file. By the way, i got the game via steam.

2- For some reason.. maybe because i reduced the game in the taskbar, whenever i go in my ship design page and i take a peek in the space simulator.. all the icons for my ships vanish, are replaced by various pics of random races (that change frequently if i go in and out of there), then all the pics of my ships on the leftside of the ship designs are just gone, only the name remains.
Oh, and whenever i quit and comes back later to play.. the problem persist.

3- whenever i reach some tech level with troops, weapon platforms or similar, the "expected results" icons dont show up at all, even though im gaining new troop sizes or other upgrades.

4- The cruiser ship of the purple, blocky shaped shipset is not properly balanced; the light cruiser have about 18 armor slots.. where the heavier cruiser have 12... please fix that.

And i think this is it..

New problems.

Im now using balance mod. Good stuff. But i dont think it has much to do with these bugs.

PS- Under balance mod, my bug with vanishing icons didnt come back.. maybe its a corrupted file under the stock files

1 - Whenever i try a simulated ground battle.. whatever i place on the attack / defense side is always screwed up for no apparent reason. What i designed as a equal battle 10 vs 10 turns into something of 1000 vs 5 ALL THE TIME. Frustrating, i cant test my desings.

2- If i enter "place your troops" page in the simulator.. i cant get out of it. There is not exit button. I have to load my previous save, or quit the game.

3- again, ground simullator: i cant fill a planet with defensive troops and then buy an invasion force to attack it apparently.. because attack units count against maximum cargo on the planet.. this is illogical.

New stuff.. still balance mod.

1 - Situation: Two CPUS are alone( at war with eachother, but are worlds appart, so mostly for shows), im alone, and there is that alliance between the 6 remaining CPUs (mostly neutral.. i created that mighty alliance initialy.. for fun and profit)

When i clicked the option "declare war on empire" for one of the lonesome ennemy empire (i wanted him to declare war on the alliance), the game instantly crashed to desktop.

1 - In the same game as i was playing before (was a big aliance made by me, that alliance got 6 out of 8 CPUs in it) I leaved it, and now when there are treaties proposed to me.. my nation name isnt corect anywhere where treaties are concerned; "my" name is the name of the alliance i was part of (Union of stars).

2 - i got frequent freeze-ups and crash to desktop whenever the computer finishes up the turn of the last CPU player. Maybe its because there are just so many ships in the galaxy right now.. around 1300 ships in total.. and i only got 60 of them.. some CPUs are in the 120.

I get the first 2 bugs you posted too.
The comparison crash is the most annoying though. I hope they can fix it for the next patch.
