[1.1.8.1] Proton Engine v3 and same fighter version uses 0 Crew

Post by FlawlessResponse »

The crew requirement seems to be 0 for proton engines after researching Advanced Proton Ionization.

This seems unintentional.

Thanks for the report. We recently released a new public beta version 1.2.0.5. Have you tried this latest version out? Are you able to reproduce this issue on the latest version? You can read this post to see how you can access this public beta: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 1&t=399808

For this you don't need a savegame. Start new game and look at the tech tree.

Did you ever played this fantastic but buggy game by yourself?

For fighters it should be 0 but not for Proton Engine (v3).

NOT FIXED

As of 1.2.0.5 Proton Engine V3 still uses 0 crew. See screenshot. This *could* be an intentional thing though.. It's not crazy for a V3 thing to get an interesting benefit like being fully automated and using 0 crew but need to know from devs.

Do you know if you're looking at a game that you started prior to 1205? Data changes only take effect if you start a new game on the latest version. I'm looking at a game I started on the latest public beta 1214 and I'm seeing the v3 Proton engine have a crew requirement.

Just to be sure, I validated the game files through Steam. 2 files failed validation and were reacquired.

On 1.2.0.5, i started a new game, checked the tech tree, and it still had 0 crew requirement. So maybe it was only fixed on later versions.
