Some Issues

Post by CaptBeefheart »

First, I'd like to say I thoroughly enjoy this game. Many thanks for putting it out.

I started a game in 1.0016 (I think) and it got updated to 1.0019. I'm playing as the US on default difficulty and medium force size and have made it to 1969.

One thing I've noticed is every time it says a pure carrier-to-carrier battle is coming up, some error occurs and it doesn't happen (this has happened under both 1.0016 and 1.0019). There's no crash, there's just no battle for that month. I'll see if I can take a screenshot next time, but I'm not sure a save would even help.

And that's another issue: saves. It would be great if you could do saves like Xenonauts 2, for instance. That game has a strategic layer and a tactical layer like this one does, and it's easy to make your own saves and label them how you'd like at any point in either realm. That makes it quite easy to submit saves for troubleshooting. I have to admit this game has a confusing save system and more than once I've had to go backwards a couple of months or even years because I screwed something up. One thing you could do that may be a quick fix is add the time of day, not just the date, of the save.

Keep up the good work.

Cheers,
CB

Hey thanks for the report!

As you said you could upload screenshots and also the save file you've observed the errors that would greatly help in investigating.

My game just ended. Next time I fire it up I'll keep an eye out for that kind of thing.
