My game became a lot more less stable with the newest version (kept on crashing within 70 turns), I reverted to 1.22 and ran a few games to 400+ turns without any problems.

Unfortunately I forgot to copy the lua.log with the latest beta to see what went wrong.
I'll see if I have some time today to run it again with the latest beta to get a log.

But wanted to mention it nonetheless. Not using any mods.

Thanks for the report :hatsoff:

, unfortunately Lua.log :deal:

is required to investigate :badcomp:

any non-trivial issue such as this one :sad:

Hey I recently bought BNW and I use the EUI. I was wondering where my consultants have gone.
So in G&K I had this little triangle where I got my information about military, external policy etc.

Has it disappeared because of the new DLC or because of the EUI? Sorry unfortunately I don't know the exact English therms of CIV because I play it in german..

Click your own leader icon in the right hand civilization ribbon, and it will take you :sheep:

to the braindead advisors :hammer2:

Would it be possible to indicate how many turns remain until you can try to ask for a Declaration of Friendship again? I'm not even sure what the lockout period is, but it's kind of annoying to have to go to the Discuss screen to find out you can't do it.

Apologies if this has been asked of you already. Will you eventually be looking to mod Civ Beyond Earth with similar UI improvements?

AFAIK this information is not exposed to Lua, but you're not missing out on much: my experience of the game is that AI will contact you on their own asking for DoF if they are willing to accept a request.

I have pre-purchased BE and intend to play, unless it's a sorry mess as Civ V initially was. So if there are things I find missing with BE's UI, I will likely do something about it... and ideally if BE & Civ V are close enough code-wise I would like to continue a single EUI product line for Civ V vanilla / g&k / bnw and now Civ BE.

Cheers

Somehow a part of the UI got messed up: when I hover over a tile, I used to get detailed information, saying how much I would get with e.g. a farm. Now I just get the normal popup, but even of the wrong tile.

My game keeps crashing freezing at the start of my turn with no error until I force close it. I have left my save file in the attachments, however I use the mods infoaddict, quickturns, and unlimited barbarian exp. I have tried it without mods and it still crashes
with eui installed, so it isn't a problem with mod incompatibility. Here is my lua.log. (It wouldn't let me send it as an attachment, so ill make a spoiler.

Spoiler :

I don't know if you need it after I crashed, but if you do, tell me. Also I posted this problem earlier, but you asked for my lua.log, so here you go.

How do I turn off the unit ribbon in the left side of the screen like in Marbozir videos?

Your Lua.log shows no errors, and the game save you provided can "next turn" on my rig (no mods but EUI) without crashing. There's nothing more I can do...

Great mod, I use it and like it a lot!

Could someone upload v1.21 though?

many6000125 · Oct 19, 2014

I have version 1.0.3.144 of civ5
I have all the DLC
I'm running on windows 8 pc
I'm not running any other mods with this

hi not sure if you have already answered this question but i am having trouble with the enhanced ui what happens is, is if i select the big blue button that lets me pick my research (or if i want to change my research) the old menu for picking research comes down with the new one in front of it and when i exit out of the new one i still have to pick a research on the old menu. For the city when i select the big orange button to pick what i build next in my city it comes up with the old menu not the new one.

I know it's not a big issue but it's a little annoying having to click the same research twice.
i have attached 2 pictures in hopes you have seen it before

This is exactly one my smally "gripes" with EUI... the Tech selection principle (of Vanilla CiV) was discarded for a direct access to the Tree-like function only and from multiple other gameplay routines, at that.

Which causes certain UI glitches such as what you exposed (again), many6000125...

I've previously asked for some quick (code) fix or hints even if i must repair it myself, but bc1 isn't interested or willing to help out. Fair enough, he's the author of that wonderful tool --but-- i'm sure the design (in this very specific feature case) has its inherent flaw(s).

Oh-well, good luck with trying to determine what needs to be done. At this point, i gave up and will be soooooooo busy with "Beyond Earth" starting next Friday that i may never return to address such issues with EUI on my own. Made him some cool custom Icons though!

This is a known issue with some computers incorrectly unzipping zero sized files. Try the beta EUI version (my sig), the empty files are now padded to avoid this problem.

Upon reading the log file I noticed I had two versions installed (UI_bc1 folder and a UI_bc1__old_version folder). I'll first try again with only one folder....

Thank you so much.

I know this mod is highly customizable, but I'm not familiar with the lua & xml hierarchy. I wanted to change when you click on the start research button (when you're not researching anything) that either the tech tree OR the sidebar available techs to research popup, not both. What file or what should I look for to change that?

EDIT: I see many of the posts on this page are people asking how to fix the same thing. Just looking through the files, the authors spent a tremendous amount of work on this mod! Right now I'm looking through the files for any function call or something that pops up either the tech tree or the sidebar techs to research...

This could be the doc: http://modiki.civfanatics.com/index.php/Lua_and_UI_Reference_(Civ5)

EUI Version 1.23 (October 19th 2014) is now available

Fixed some bugs
Significant additions to unit, building and improvement tooltips
Filter unit ribbon by unit type (several types can be selected): click on the >>> button at the bottom of the ribbon to select units to display. Your choices are saved from one session to the other. Settings are common to all hotseat players, though.
Add civilization ribbon player connection indicator: yellow = connecting, green = connected, red = host, mouse over tooltip shows ping, click to kick player (host only)
Add control-click action on civilization ribbon leader icon to declare war (BNW only)
Miscellaneous improvements

Cheers

blitz4 · Oct 19, 2014

Thanks bc1!

In the new version, is it just me or are the green citizen buttons in the city screen gone (to lock/unlock working a tile)?

EDIT:
Nevermind, might've been a wild bug. I just had to close/reopen the citezen management panel to fix it.

The side research panel is gone! Awesome! Thanks!!

it can if there are bugs with either mod xml coding or UI xml parsing

Sure thing, lua.txt attached. Thanks!

three weird glitches:

The city banners for all surrounding (even unmet) players appears ABOVE the fog of war. Kind of takes the surprise element out.

The city banner for my cities is incorrect - the icon for what is being built remains that for the worker, and is not even properly placed inside the city banner - also it doesn't change/update depending on what I am constructing.

The tooltips do not load at all - neither simple nor detailed.

PR0927 said:
lua.txt attached

Your lua.log shows incompatibilities with "(BNW) Leugi's Israel Civilization (v 7)" (CityBannerManager), and with "Cultural Diffusion (v 18)" (CultureUIFunctions.lua, in function 'UpdatePlotHelptext')

When save games which require mods are loaded, these are automatically activated even if you have not checked them (although that process is reported to have bugs)
