[We the People] Bug reporting

[raystuttgart]

Can't start revolution.

Which Victory Types did you select when starting the game?
(Game Options Screen will show you. I think it is F11, but there is also a button at the top of the Main Interface.)

If you do not select Victory Type "Revolution" starting the revolution is also not possible.
That is not a bug, that is how Civ4Col has always been since Vanilla.

----

Otherwise I know for sure that in last public Release 3.0.1 starting revolution is generally possible, since we had game report from Revolution.
(Also I can hardly imagine any bug we could have implemented preventing Revolution.)

----

Most likely explanations:
1) You selected the wrong Victory Types when you started the game --> Game Options Screen
B) You do not yet have enough Revolutionary Points in general --> Revolutionary Advisor

----

Please show Screenshots for both of these.
If none of my explanations is correct, we may analyze the save.

CTD when I click on Start Revolution.

 

[Mr. ZorG]

we only have a limited amount of icons for billboards

is it possible to increase their number? after all, the problem is not only with the Russian language, but also with some others.

Thanks, it seems as if this is really a bug then.

@devolution or @Nightinggale
Could one of you please take a look at the savefile here to figure out why declaring Independence causes a CTD?
I am pretty bad in debugging and currently do not have Release 3.0.1 installed.

@Honor
Did you modify the XML or anything ?

Will take a look later today

Btw, it is a bit strange that the REF is so massive!

 

[devolution]

Confirming, we have a novel bug here!

In Release 3.0.1 ?

@Honor
Did you modify the XML or anything ?

Yeah, the attached files + the ini. Don't remember what I changed, specifically.

 

[Honor]

In Release 3.0.1 ?

That is the version I have installed, yes.

 

[devolution]

Testing a fix now, will provide more details later

Awesome.

I don't know if this is intended or a bug, but the Native Trader event kept firing in my recent game. Each turn I was able to pay gold to increase relations with a nearby tribe. This was happening turn after turn.

I don't know if this is intended or a bug, but the Native Trader event kept firing in my recent game.

Please post at least a Screenshot.
It is much easier to analyse that way because then we can search e.g. for the Text we see.

Edit:
Not necessary anymore. Already found and fixed the bug.

The Event was "repeating" and "always (100%) firing if conditions met".
(So it was simply bad setup in the Event Trigger.)

Thanks for reporting.

Thank you!

Continental Guard Issue solved.
(It should work on almost all resolutions again.)

I'm not quite sure about this, even though I've read through lots of threads: Is this fix available as a hotfix right now, or only as part of the upcoming release?

Discovered this mod about a week ago, soon after I finished a game on vanila Col for the first time again since 2008, and I love it. We The People, that is. It's absolutely wonderful.

Yes, there is a hotfix file on page 52 of these bug reports

Oh, thanks. I missed it. Do I just unzip the folder into Assets\Art\units?

I tried that, but it didn't work.

I thought the XML had to be changed as well? Maybe this part in Civ4UnitInfos.xml:

I actually did what @raystuttgart was talking about, changing the numbers so that there are only three soldiers in the unit . The code now looks like this:

<ProfessionMeshGroups>

And the unit comes out like this (with a Great General in two of them):

This did solve the problem of clicking on neighboring units.

Sorry, I guess it was a half-baked, lukewarm fix. I know that in my private version I can play the entire crowd. At least I thought so, but my memory is so bad that I can't even remember that it is bad and go around thinking it is as perfect as it used to be.

[UPDATE] I can confirm that I am crazy, but in my own modmod I can easily click on every unit adjacent to the continental guard, so maybe I did some more adjustments after I had uploaded that file.
