Incorrect fleet name

from GalCiv4 Forums

Version: 0.81 Beta
Details: I saved right before I attacked a space monster

Expected Behavior: enemy fleet is "Space Monster Fleet" or something to that effect.

Actual Behavior: enemy fleet is "Terran Resistance Fleet". Also, the video shows the Fall of the Terran Resistance Fleet.
How to reproduce: [Reproduction]
Save file: save file

Screen Shot

Note: This appears to be intermittent. I attacked another space monster and the battle report and movie were correct.

Is this coming out as black-on-grey for you? Take 2.

Apologies for putting this in the wrong forum. I've been having all sorts of trouble with the forums thinking I'm logged out when I'm logged in. I originally made the post in the correct forum, it didn't take, and I had to start all over again. Second time didn't work either. Take three, I had to switch browsers and then I guess I didn't click on the correct forum when I did it.

Is anyone else experiencing this weirdness with being ambiguously logged in or not logged in? Clicking "Delete cookies" has no effect. Clicking "log in" has no effect. Sometimes reloading the page works and sometimes it doesn't. I haven't changed my password since 2003 so I have no idea what is going on.

Sorry to hear you are having issues. I am testing your save now to see if I can reproduce the behavior you described. Do you recall which area or planet the enemies you attacked are close to?

The space monsters are in the ENE section of my starting quadrant, NNE of my second planet. This particular problem is intermittent. I get the wrong heading maybe 10% of the time.
