Issues in 0.4.4 RC2 so far

[MatGB]

It's also been showing fine for me in RC2/en

Minor issue I can't fix myself: Transparency in the Gaia icon is missing in the bottom right half (but present in the top left half), looks a bit odd in the production queue/window where it's against a gray background, but looks fine in the normal planets sidebar where it's against a black background.

0.4.4 RC2 Missed text for industrial center.

The link shows fine for me in that sitrep message in the latest trunk SVN.

will check it on RC3.

minor issue:
"Ships of this design" at disign screen show ships that was destroyed(I have message about descruction of this ship in situation report).

I suppose it probably would be more helpful to split the ships up into the main group and a known-destroyed group, is that what you had in mind? I can't say I've every really found that pedia page helpful, but I guess I can think of situations where it might be.

I've always thought it should just show ships currently visible, but Geoff disagreed last time it was discussed.

Apparently I changed my mind...

I don't know if this is normal, but all shield strength value = 0 in the Pedia articles (RC1 build)

Pedia entries generally show simply scripted statistics for parts, derived from the "capacity = whatever" type lines. Some parts, such as most shields, have other more complicated scripts that implement their effects, but which don't use the capacity stat, so the pedia entries will say 0 for them.

I just took a look at the icon, transparency seems to be just fine. The bottom right shouldn't be transparent anyway, as it's covered by the image of a dark planet, which makes up the bigger part of the entire pic.

It's a planet (a dark circle) in the bottom right with a colorful, sparkly glow in the upper left (take a look at the large and huge image).

[MatGB]

I'd never noticed that. Geoff, suggest we try to either remove the line or fix it so it displays?

EDIT: Vezzra posted as I did, I stand corrected, had never noticed that it had a planet in it before, not sure that comes across at all well in game. Ah well, thought it was one of those that went wrong when they were all refactored a few months back.

Found a species in the stringtables that is not displayed in the Pedia (species article): (still RC1 build)

Maybe removed?

Commented out but not removed completely, they were a species that vastly improved food production, when food was removed as a resource they were commented but not removed completely, I keep meaning to look at them and figure out if there's something cool we could do with them but it's not a priority.

Yeah, that's something I think we should have on the todo list to fix for 0.4.5
