SE V Bugs That Are Still Present

Atrocities · #1 January 24th, 2007, 04:13 PM

If you know of a bug that is still present in SE V that hasn't yet been addressed could you please post about it.

FIXED V1.24
1. Transferring cargo to a colony ship will result in a crash of the game.

FIXED V1.24
2. There is no carriage return function when setting up the descriptions for your empire.

FIXED V1.24
3. Sometimes after turn processing the first ship/ships/fleet to go through a warp point will cause a sound effect error whereas the sound of warping blows your speakers.

FIXED V1.24
4. When leaving the game minimized for more than a few minutes sometimes results in a frozen game.

5. Trying to shut down the game via Alt Ctrl Del will sometimes fail and cause a system wide crash.

I've transfered cargo to a colony ship just fine before, I believe?

AT, this is a valiant effort. However there are already other bug threads and I believe there is a SEV bug reporting/tracking system on another website.

What we really need is more than a thread. It may already exist somewhere and I sure hope that MM has one, but what we need is an online bug database. We could make sure each bug is only reported once, decide on severity, priority etc. There should also be a difference between a bug report and a feature/change request. There could be an input form which goes to the admin for screening, entering. Users could search the database for info and seeing if their bug is already reported. MM could be sent regular reports. Maybe even have user input for priority assignment.

Spaceempires5.com has a decent bug reporting system, but it lacks active administration with respect to marking items fixed...

That and as per the chat, Aaron doesn't actually USE it.

He needs to be force-fed.

That's not exactly true as I know he does reference it from time to time... if more players used it, that would increase the pressure for SFI/MM to maintain and use it more actively imo.

As you can see Aaron is making progress.

AT that's good news, my two cats will really like #3!

Thanks PES, I'm on the mend, but as you said, a prayer won't hurt.

1.20, but not listed as fixed in 1.25:
"Upgrade Facilities" in the Construction list does not work. It doesn't upgrade facilities in progress, and while it DOES add an entry to the construction ques, that entry disappears after the turn is processed and no upgrading is ever done.
