Repeatable error message on the Construction Screen

Post by Tycow »

Hiho chaps, whenever I press F6 to access the construction screen, I am presented with an

"Unhandled Exception Error: Object must be of type Double"

I can press continue to carry on playing, but it's quite annoying! :D

See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Thanks for the report. I've seen this reported by a couple of other customers, but I cannot get it to duplicate here (so far). If you have a game where this always happens, could you save it and upload the save file please (and let us know what it's called).

More info. It only happens when I select Construction Yards from the drop down box. I can select something else and all is fine. As soon as I select Construction Yards (even when I have kept the Construction window open) it pops up again. :)

Thanks, unfortunately I can do exactly that on two systems here with two different setups and operating systems and neither will crash. The drop down works fine, selecting construction yards works fine, so far.
