Random ship building problem

#1 Post by Daybreak »

Occasionaly I go to build a new design, and cant "Add finished Design"

it is greyed out/highlighted as if it already exists - but it does not matter how much I search, it does not exist.

So I save it to Saved Designs, although that does not initally help. I then add all saved designs to finished designs to get it to work.

Anybody else experience this?

Yes.
It's a bug with previously created ships that are not here anymore but still in a way.

I have been able to replicate this

a) Enter MP, have your turn, click on turn button
b) Leave game
c) go in and design a ship
d) Leave game WITHOUT clicking on the Turn button, which would save game details.
e) Go back in and try to design same ship.

You will get the error that it already exists - but it doesn't

good catch, confirmed with the shorter sequence
A) Start local MP
B) design a ship
C) Save and Leave game WITHOUT clicking on the Turn button, which would save game details.
D) Load the game; note the design is missing; and try to design same ship.
