  • military academy bug?

    If I recall correctly there was a bug when BTS first was released by which one could use a great general to build a military academy without first having researched military science. That was subsequently fixed I believe.

    But in my current game I can do just that. Is the bug back?

    As far as I can remember, in the original release, you could build the academy, but you still do not get the bonus until military science. I play 3.13 + the unofficial patch and I have not seen a problem. What most people do in such situations is they send a savegame file and/or a screenshot.

      Not me. My GG sits there until I discover Military Science. Then he has the option to build the Military Academy.

      I have the official 3.13 patch but not Bhruic's.

        The military academy bug was not reintroduced in 3.13, and Bhruic's does not alter the CIV4UnitInfos.xml file which created the bug.

        Are you perhaps using an altered CIV4UnitInfos.xml file, or the file in CustomAssets from BEFORE 3.13?? The file was changed substantially in 3.13, of course. I wouldn't know if any of the 3.13-included (or other) mods have the bug.

        At any rate, the bug was in the UNIT_GREAT_GENERAL, where instead of
        "Buildings" ... BUILDING_MILITARY_ACADEMY
        it had
        "ForceBuildings" ... BUILDING_MILITARY_ACADEMY

          Neither 313 nor Bhruic's alters Civ4UnitsInfos.xml so they neither fix nor recreate the bug.

          For that matter, the military academy fix was in a seperate zip file from Solver's unoffical patch but in that same thread.

            Ah that's it! I had reinstalled the game three weeks ago and forgot that the mil ac fix was a separate download... thanks!
