Bug: Campaign: Review Unit

[DRG]

Yes, we know it comes and goes and even if you do nothing but restart the game you will find it goes away. I have a save just like this and it's not repeatable so finding out where it's originating is going to be a challenge.

I loaded that one you just sent and it was OK....no blank screen.....it's a slippery one

[DRG]

It's possible the change of version is what threw the SS ranks from OOB00 into the game as I have not seen it other than that one save but I will check next time I see an AI advance in my campaign .....that said, the save you posted works perfectly for me.......no blank screen at all.......I'm not saying it didn't happen to you because I HAVE seen it..just saying it works OK for me when I load it and review

I saw no problems when reviewing units with Warnevada's save game.

[DRG]

The first one with post 9 or the new one with post 25 ? I didn't have a problem with the one with 25 but I did see issues with the one with post 9

[scorpio_rocks]

Sorry - I wasn't clear.

With BOTH saved games I didn't get the blank review problem (although with post #9 save I did get SOME units with SS ranks)

[DRG]

OK, you are seeing mostly the same that I see but with a difference . Last night when I posted my reply I saw exactly what you saw with save from 9....no blank screen, some SS ranks and the rank issue seems to be tied to damage....the ones that have damage...most of them...show SS ranks which is itself " interesting" but apparently harmless as once they have been restored to " health " with fix all that goes away and ( so far ) does not come back and right now I'm thinking this relates to the switch from V9 to V10 but last night I did not see the blank screen when I loaded that save and I loaded it twice...this morning I loaded it.....no blank screen.....started this reply and tried again......no blank screen but on the third reload.......

so this joyful little mystery is inconsistent....but merely a minor annoyance as a "fix all" or pressing continue then exit and reloading usually clears it ( for awhile anyway )

BUT....... I may have discovered a pattern but it remains to be seen if it is truly repeatable.... if, after game passes from the promotions to the rebuild screen you click on any unit BEFORE pressing review you will not get a blank screen when you press review then select a unit but if the first thing you do is press review then select a unit you are more likely to trip the bug and get a blank screen ( but not always sometimes it works normally when you follow that pattern ) but that theory only seems to work with the save from 9.... so far I have not been able to get a blank from the last one and I have tried at least a dozen times.

If ANYONE else sees this when they are playing we would appreciate it being reported and a save would be nice

I don't know if it makes a difference, but the exact sequence for my last save was 1) Fix All, 2) Review (got blank screen).

[DRG]

OK...that's new info. I have never tried that sequence....... Fix all cleared the first save......

Ok.....just tried that exact sequence three times with the post 25 save and no blank screen.

I have seen blank review screens often with a generated campaign.

The work around i use is to select "expand core", then "exit". After this, review works like normal.

I don't have a save to share (campaign finished) but maybe this work around offers some hint as to the source.

I really enjoy this game, been playing too much lately.

[DRG]

I've noted down what you did and we'll see if that helps offer any insight into its origins.....when did you first start noticing this?

We're glad you're enjoying the game otherwise. We'll eventually track this down but it's being slippery
