Minor Bug

Post by Harrybanana »

Playing the AI in the 43 Campaign as the WA using version 1.00.29 beta.

When I first load up the game from a saved game and access the Air Directive Summary screen I have the ability to cancel an existing directive (that is to say one I set on a previous turn) by clicking on a little "[x]" beside that air directive. However after a few turns (I've never bothered to count how many) all the "[x]"s disappear. This means to cancel an air directive I have to click on it which calls up the air planning screen for that air HQ which does have the "[x]" I can click on to cancel that air directive (along with all the other air directives for that Air HQ). So no big deal as it only adds about 20 seconds to my turn to cancel all my old directives, which I almost always want to do. But hey that is another 20 seconds of my life gone that I will never get back. And over the course of the 43 Campaign Game that is a full 36 minutes. Time I could have spent more productively by say having sex with my wife with time left over to watch an old MASH rerun [:D]

Does this happen to anyone else, or is it just me (the bug part not the having sex with my wife part)?

Okay I saved then reloaded and it is only for 1 turn that I can cancel old ADs from the Air Directive Summary screen. By the next turn the ability to do so is gone.

All kidding aside does anyone have the answer for this? Does this happen to anyone else? If so is it going to get fixed or is it just too minor for the developers to bother with?

Ai function doesn't reset all parameters and deletion buttons are hidden.

As workaround you may save and reload it - it will reset them and [x] will show up again. It will save some time for you and will make your wife happier. Permanent fix should be in some of the future patches.

Thank you Helpless. Saving and reloading each turn also takes 20 seconds. So I guess my wife will just have to suffer with out my attentions[;)]. Nice to know it will be fixed at some time, but I can see why it is not a priority.
