Steam Version "WAIT" Bug

from GalCiv3 Forums

Hello All,

 

just bought the game on Steam and while I was playing it end up in hanging in "WAIT" status in the lower right corner. That means, I was unable to click to the next turn. I restarted the game, load my saved game and it happend again. So the good thing is, I can reproduce it every time with my saved game. If the devs are interessted please tell me.

Hi Kitten, lots of people are having this issue and has been reported many times.. Gotta wait for a fix I'm afraid :(

 

Hopefully they'll be quick about this one - I am dying to see the game past the Age of War

Diet? Whatever this means.. I just wanted to help finding the bug. That's what's expected from a beta tester isn't it? I'm a software developer myself and from my experience I know it helps alot if there's a special reproduceable case that always leads to a specific malfunction.

Darca has a loose wire that shorts out every now and then. :grin:

Source code for DARCA v2:

AnnoyEverybodyAtRandom:

for each CurrentThread as ForumThread in GalCiv3Forum.ThreadList

Dim NewReply as ForumReply = new ForumReply()

Dim WordCounter as integer = Rnd (1000)

 

while WordCounter > 0

NewReply.AddWord EnglishDictionary (Rnd(171476 ))

WordCounter = WordCounter - 1

wend

CurrentThread.AddReply NewReply

next CurrentThread

sleep (1)

goto AnnoyEverybodyAtRandom

 

This would yield a massive improvement - intellectually-wise - over the current version. :grin:

Is it wrong that I envision everything you say as a Cyberman voiceover?
