Ship Display Bug After Repair

Post by witpqs »

This one is very minor as such things go. Repaired a bunch of ships at Alameda & here's what I noticed.

- After the first few ships repaired...
- Open the port display (or whatever it's called - the list of ships disbanded at that base).
- Noticed that the speed listed for one of the ships was low. In fact, it was the pre-repair speed that was listed!
- Opened the ship display and noticed that the speed was 'normal', i.e. the fully repaired/undamaged speed.
- Went back (clicked back or pressed escape) to the port display, and noted that the speed listed for that ship was now correct.
- BUT... noticed that the same error existed for all the other newly repaired ships!
- Following the same procedure for a couple of them worked also. After verifying that I just ignored the bug.

Don,

I have noticed a similar issue in PH. Damaged destroyer (33Kts normal spd) repaired and now showed 25 in the port screen and then in the task force screen when I put her to work. Once I selected her in the task force screen to see the individual ship, she showed the proper 33kts and that fixed the display issue in the other screens. Nothing major it seems like a display gremlin.


All the best!

I have coded a fix but need a save to test it.

Here's one. Check out DMS Boggs in PH. I'm including all the report files too.

Boggs changes from 27 to 30 knots after opening the ship display.

Thanks, but unfortunately that won't do it. I need one still under repair and about to end repair. If someone has one it could save me a lot of time.

Okay Don, here are 4 save games. Look at Bombay, the AK Governor Wright.

- Save slot 5, 42/2/17, before putting ship in for repair.

- Save slot 6, 42/2/18, after putting ship in for repair.

- Save slot 21, 42/3/3, just before ship is finished repairing.

- Save slot 22, 42/3/4, ship has just finished repairing. Look at port display, ship speed shows as 7. Open ship display. Close ship display (go back to port display). Ship speed shows as 12.

First save with this post, other saves with the next 3 posts.

OK, the fix is verified. Speeds are kept up to date during the repair process and will correct for both completion of repairs and for early removal from repairs.

Thanks for the well organized set of saves. A big help.
