Error Report with Construction Yards!

[Darthcaboose]

Hey yo,

After opening up the Construction Yards screen and setting the menu to display all the "Construction Yards", I'm hit with this error.

*****

Unhandled exception has occured in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

Object must be of type Double.

*****

Clicking continue closes the error and allows me to change to another menu setting, though I'm not able to add any construction yard jobs to planets through this screen (supposedly because the Construction Yards sub-menu is the only one that has planets!) because of this error.

In opening the details I get the following:

************** JIT Debugging ************** To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this application or computer (machine.config) must have the jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section. The application must also be compiled with debugging enabled.

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Thanks, we will try to reproduce.

[LarryP]

It's not doing it here.

[Darthcaboose]

Hmmm... Didn't restart my computer after the installation when I first tried it and was getting this error.

However, after a quick restart, the problem was gone! Not getting this error anymore (note: I did not install DirectX 9.0c or Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 from the installer since I already had those).

[Erik Rutins]

Always a good idea to let those install anyway to make sure you are using the same version the game expects, but glad to hear the problem appears to be resolved in any case. Feel free to post here if it comes up again.
