RFC: BtS Bug Reports

[Mekajiki]

RFC 1.186
600 AD Start

Jerusalem has the Church of the Nativity in it even though it isn't the Christian Holy City.


I apologize in advance if this has been reported before.

This isn't a bug, it's done on purpose to reflect the near-historical site of the Church of the Nativity.

if you start at auto-war with a civ you do not automatically get contact with them.

 

[deanej]

Actually you do see them with autowar. I was Persia once and Shush was indy, but I already saw Babylon at war with me even though I don't know them.

Are you sure that there wasn't some reason to have been granted contact with them? In my Arabia game I had an auto-war with France and did not have contact with them until I ran into one of their boats in the mediterranean during my invasion of Spain.

I see. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

 

[deanej]

It's also to keep Rome from being too good of a city to take. Before it was moved, capturing Rome as one of the euros was too powerful a strategy.

 

[UNIT 666]

Okay, this must be a bug.

RFC 1.186
3000 BC Start
Japan

I met the Aztecs and then the Maya on the same turn, in 1515 AD, using a Caravel and spawned two of the raiding parties. The Mayan raiding party (which appeared beside Huaxyacac) was teleported off of Mayan lands (maybe after I declared war on the Aztecs), with a Jaguar and two Holkans put on a one-tile island to the West of the Mayan territory, and the rest put on an island just North of Australia.

I've attached a save, although it's after the event occurred. Mostly, it's to illustrate where the units went.

 

[deanej]

Did you have open borders? If not, your units are not allowed in their lands and so get teleported to the nearest land squared closer to your lands they can be in.

 

[blizzrd]

Actually you do see them with autowar. I was Persia once and Shush was indy, but I already saw Babylon at war with me even though I don't know them.

Again, I ask the question, who could be at autowar with ALL the euros (so that they have the +1 military smile) every single time I load the Dutch? Try it yourself. This must be a bug (unless natives are counted as a major civ now).

I've seen the Vikings at war with every other Euro before under 1.186. Was it them?

yes, they ae ALWAYS at war with the Nederland

Hi,

playing with the latest updates, i'm playing Rome when Germany appears on the map. They appear just beside my two workers working on a cow (see attachment). My workers change from nationality and become germans. Is this intended, why aren't they just throwed out the new German territory?

Also some 50% when i start a game, after a few minutes the game shuts down (message: "civilization doesn't work anymore"). When i try again it goes smoothly.

??

I did not. That must be what happened. It was still weird, though.

That is not a bug.

Units that are near where a civilization spawns when they spawn are converted their cause, much like how cities are converted. I think it's to prevent various ways of denying a new civ their historical starting area. I think the units are converted rather than moved to discourage attacking a spawning civ.

After a few minutes meaning, after the game loads and you've been playing as normal? If you're playing a normal, unmodded version of Civ4 BTS [3.19] and RFC [1.186] then I would think it has something to do with your computer.

Hi I have two bugs in my game here with Greece. I was playing as the Indians and then switched to them when they appeared. The first is that I did not start with subjection as my expansion civic and I have no expansion civic it just says despotism. This is happening in all of my games. The other bug is that there is a tribal village that doesn't work south of my warrior, see for yourself.

[Zagoroth]

Sorry double post. Internet said it could not connect and yet it was still able to post...

 

[Zagoroth]

I do not know what caused the issue. However if you delete it, and replace the Tribal village you can pop it. Also it might be a better idea to explore with your warriors and keep your Phalanxes at home, Rome is about to destroy Byzantion.

Thanks a lot for you help and advice any idea about the civic problem?

Edit: I found the problem it has something to do with the Varietas Delectat modmod

 

[Zagoroth]

I used that mod for a while. However it made playing from the Colonial Era onward unbearable.

I'm having the same problem. It happened twice playing as England, both times while exploring with a caravel; it also happened as China 3000BC start, about 10 turns after starting.

I could post the save file for England if it would help

 

[dagriggstar]

Was playing, the Christian Holy city was on the site of Paris (Luetia or something, anyway see the save files). On spawning of the French rather than flip the city disappeared.

 

[JujuLautre]

Confirmed that Lutecia, holy city of christianity, disappears with the arrival of the french. Is that to be expected? Does not seem so.

Btw, is there something wrong with your RFC install? I see Japan and other civs building mints, while other cities in the world build ger, terrace or ikhanda ?

Made some slight xml changes, nothing that should effect Lutecia disappearing but probably enough to mess up what cities are building (since one of the edited files is the buildingsinfo file)
