3.0 bugs

WTF

from Stardock Forums

Now that the newest update loaded, my ships range is shown in the wrong color, seemingly picking it up from the area they're currently in, even after they move out of the area. Ships near Iridium  planets show the Iridium color as the range, instead of the colors that the other ships in other areas show. If there was a way to show upload a jpg, it would be easier to show. But it's revolting.

Edit: Figured it out. Somebody changed the influence multiplier. What was nobody's space is now Iridium space and I lost at least a dozen artifacts. %#$@. I'm going to turn off automatic updates.

I'm not sure I understand.  Ship ranges don't usually have a color, they're just a dotted white line I think.

I guess I meant the sensor range. Map looked totally strange after the update. I think my influence ranges over almost all the spiral galaxy from what I can see. Gonna have about 100 planets surrender to me in a dozen turns or less, if influence works like it did before. And what's with the 1 million$ + for tourist money on 1 planet? :-) Going to have a lot of ships upgraded soon.

Are you playing a game started before 3.0 went live?

I just started a new game this morning (no mods) and already have run into a few issues with missing text descriptions...

Of course, when I've got 300 turns in I'm not going to start a new game unless I can't finish the old one.

You can keep playing the v2.8 version of the game.  Please see below for instructions:

Due to various other issues I had to go back to the v28-legacy-build.  What happened to the ability to purchase/research a shipyard from a newly settled planet?

I'm sorry that you're having this problem.  I can't reproduce it here locally.  Can you send me your debug.err file if that happens again?  It would be in your my games directory, similar to: C:\Users\Patrick\Documents\My Games\GC3Crusade

pshaw, no problem. I tried verifying my files and 3 didn't pass inspection. Played a bit more and haven't seen it again. I will be sure to send you the file if it happens to me again. Thanks for the quick reply!

Didn't know that. Will do that. The last update totally screwed up my save, game-wise, as the influence change dropped about 200 new planets in my lap. Thanks for the tip.
