[quote quoting="post"] The screen snapshot below shows that a cell on one of my core worlds has an Oasis in it that gives +2 to Food, but it also shows that I cannot build a food improvement on it. I think the issue is in the code that populates the cells on planets in that it apparently does not look at the capabilities of the base cell before adding enhancements like Oases. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/64/79/6479257/7fa59611-40f5-40b8-a6c7-04d6cf8e9bee.png"

[quote who="RammaStardock" reply="1" id="3919893"] Hello! Is this issue still going on in the current build? [/quote] Appears so there is at least one poster (may be this one, Different Nickname though) in Steam. Actually it was Culture Vic not loading. So it seems the victory selection screen may not be working 100% of the time.

[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="2" id="3917461"] Those look like the Snathi and Thalans, both of which spawn in via random event and start at war with everyone. Have you checked your diplomatic status to make sure you're not at war with them? [/quote] See the zero-balance offer is still in these events also.

[quote who="PaulLach" reply="2" id="3917063"] I suggest that the code be modified to accumulate the results of all treasure and resource missions until the start of the player's next turn and then display ONE window that shows the results of all of the missions in total. For example: 10 Treasure Hunt missions found 1,000 credits. 15 Scavenger missions found: <p styl

[quote who="perrya555" reply="10" id="3916230"] Docking a transport auto unloads the required passenger. The starbase "eats" that passenger and now your ship is in Hotel California. It is a nasty bug. [/quote] Not a necessarily a bug, might be a bad design choice, or might be a good feature that needs "no ship docking on SBs" to make perfect.

The battle predictor does not predict what will happen but what should happen. The RNG dictates what does happen. The predictor is mostly right but just as most observers of a certain battle in the middle of The Pacific Ocean on 6 June 1942 found out random events can cause the more powerful force to end up crushed. Just as the IJN was that day by the much inferior, on paper, USN at The Battle of Midway. For the record the myth the Zulus only had spears a

Welcome to the world of Random Number Generators, sometimes you should win but you do not. Roarke's Drift and Blood River are good examples. In both the Zulu should have walked over the defenders without pause in both cases they were beaten off.

WAD, you choose certain Civs you get different "Capitals". It is however not clear that the alternative buildings were properly programed. Alas it may be after the New Year before it is settled. The alternative "Capital" buildings will stay though.
