v22 bugs and crashes

I decided to gift a ship to a vassal so he could be useful...
Upon gifting it CTD,,, Part of the crash may be due to him being a landlocked state. He has access to the sea via culture, but no actuall port cities. Was hoping to gift him his own navy...guess that broke the game.
The ship was the upgrade from Transport... Diesel Tank Transport Ship......????

Gifted untils always go to the capital, or (for sea units when capital land-locked) a coastal city. It probably doesn't check for the case of not having been able to find any such city and crashes. I'm sure that's easy to fix, but the simple fix will just lead to such units vanishing. A more complex fix that puts them somewhere other than in a city if no useful city exists will be a bit harder, but I'll see what I can do
 
I think this has been reported before but I'm not sure:

When having cities doing "research" or "wealth" (doesnt seem to matter if meager/lesser etc) and doing an assets rebuild the research points per turn are subtracted instead of recalculated.
One workaround is to set the cities to idle (probably any other building will work too but I haven't tested) and to a rebuild assets again. That should correct the wrong values.

2nd screenshot: This is after an assets rebuild with 3 cities on lesser research and then set to idle

Edit: added screenshots

It has, and I just haven't got round to it yet. Keep reminding me and one day I will ;)
 
CTD upon using the plant nuclear device with spy.
--------------
sry koshling not reproducable, I hadn't saved that turn, and open trying it again he failed the mission instead.. Let me see if I can find the order in which i did things...

Well, I found out what I all did and got it to repeat crash. (needed to go another turn)

Simple instructions
Goto Agent 007 Koshling, (screen should be centered on it)
In a native american city, (not the capital) the other one... lol forgot name dammit.
But its the only other agent in his land, Just go missions, Plant Nuke Device. CTD

Joseph_II Are you providing the name for the log. If you are and that name is Crime what's it good for?.txt or just Crime what's it good for?. Then I suggest you rename it with out the ' and ?.

No! That's the name of my leader, this particular game! :lol: I was using the theme "War what's it good for?!" as the basis for my new game's leader.

Previous Name for previous game was Hate Crime. ;)

I have a theme running for this version can you guess what it is? :mischief:

JosEPh :D

OK, I don't know enough about Python file handling. It creates a log/txt file based on your leader's name but I suspect it can't handle the quote or question mark in the resultant file name.

@AIAndy can you confirm that? If so, is there away around the problem of "strange" characters which are valid in leader names but not file names? Please tell me rather than doing it yourself so I can learn. ;)

Correct. It reads that player name in autologEventManager. Best would be if you filter out any bad characters at that point in StartLogger.
The easiest way for such replacements are regular expressions. In Python the method for that is re.sub (needs import re).

I was thinking string.translate would be a better way to go. I assume the leader name has some validation on it. At least you wont end up with an empty file name if the user gave only bad names for their leader.
 
Please post a save game showing this.

My mistake its working. I just didnt realize it only works for the city its built on, and I forgot I had my colossus become obsolete.

That said, it, and some of the other religious wonders are quite... underwhelming considering how difficult it is to build them. Other wonders do the same, and more, even if they do become obsolete at a later time.

On the other hand, some specific religious wonders are just way too powerful. +50% beakers on some of them and they never go obsolete. Pretty much all of the ordinary science wonders only give a flat amount, which is never greater than a percent increase.

Yes it's a bug indeed, the promotion for them could be like

+20% attack/defense for coast/ocean
+20% attack/defense for artic coast/ocean
+20% attack defense for tropical coast/ ocean

so if a sea critter would get to 10 xp it would have a bonus in each sea type, next promotion would be

Leviathan (I/II/III)
(I)+30% vs. wooden ships
(II)+180 vss wooden ships +120% vs. steam ships
(III/Godzilla)+360% vs. everything

For more realism, some animals, like wales should have routes that make them "travel from north pole to south pole and back", like some birds should also do. All in regard of having animals with their self-organizing animal pathing (herbivores follow each other like 'ants' do, setting their own pathing) as a possible upcoming feature.
 
Choose religion option isnt working. After getting the tech, and picking a religion, the window keeps popping up no matter what you do. If the game auto saved the turn you finished researching the tech, and you loaded the game, the choose religion pop up doesnt appear but you hear the pop up sfx repeatedly.

Heres a save 1 turn before the tech finishes researching.

I seem to have developed the egytian money scam lol.
Instead of geting the +$1555 or whatever next turn I gain upwards of $77,000..and I'm not sure where or how lol. I also don''t know when it started, could've been a turn or 4... I remeber having like 20K normal with spending and stuff..
pics, and saved game included.

I wasn't able to reproduce the actual crash, but walking through the code as it ran in your save game I'm 99% sure I have found and fixed the problem. The latest DLL on SVN as of this post should contain the fix. I'd be grateful if you would try it and verify it resolves the issue for you too.
