The Official Apolyton Bug List

[korn469]

sorry about my lacks of updates, finishing up this semester at college really took away all of my free time

having said that i will work on updating the list, though any help on this would be very much appreciated

What will we do with the list after the first patch?

Will we just remove all fixed bugs, or will we start a new list moving over all unfixed bugs?

i think we need to close this thread an open up a new thread, since this one had became quite ungainly, hopwever i would like to get all of the bugs out of this thread first

also i think we should have the list divided into two sections, bugs that have been addressed by the patch and bugs that haven't

how does that sound guys?

It sounds good to me.

You CAN build Hoover Dam in a city with a river bordering on the edge (as opposed to running through the city). But you must build an aqueduct if that river is only on the edge. Maybe, not a bug, but a bit inconsistent.

AFAIK rivers only are on the tile edges in Civ3

Yet another bug...

I have reported this to Firaxis, but I thought it could be good to post it here too.

When selecting the Americans as your own civ, the game will immediately stop responding. You can still move around the cursor and close the program from Windows' program shut down menu after pressing Cltr+Alt+Del. Selecting any other civ doesn't cause any such errors. The problem doesn't disappear when running the game next time. It will not help to reboot, and DirectX 8 is properly installed and working.

Have you modified the game in any way?

Re: Saved Game Path

Hi,

Problem: Having trouble loading a saved game-- Civ3 cannot find the path to my saved game directory, including the autosaved directory, without me having to type in the full path to where the saved games are stored.

Cause: Game was installed in my profile directory and there is a . in my profile name on my Windows2000 system. The reason for the . is a while back my profile was corrupted so I just deleted my account and created a new account with the same name but did not delete my old profile directory. So when Win2000 created my new profile it was called my loggin name dot workstation name (localuser.computername) because the localuser name profile already existed.

Civ3 cannot read past the . in my profile name and keeps looking at the wrong directory. Then I cant even change directories using the built in navigation as the navigation cant read passed the dot either. Have to type in the long path manually. Can copy the path into the ini file as a short cut to typing...

Try to edit the ini setting the option
WindowsFileBox=1

That will make the game use Windows Common dialogs for open and save

This is NOT a bug!
The Civilopedia says:

"A city must have water (fresh or salt) within its radius to build a Nuclear Plant. It replaces any other power plant in the city."

Yes, so not being able to build it by ocean tiles is a bug.

I've tried to update the list since your last update.
(Never leave one month unupdated again.)

Can you check that I got everything?

Also, how should the list be separated into a addressed, and unaddressed part?

Technology Theft Bug

If you steal the tech you are currently researching, when it puts you into the big picture tech screen to select your next tech, it still thinks you are stealing tech, and you can automatically steal a second one if there is one to steal. If there are no more techs to steal, you can't get out of the screen at all. If you click on a tech you have it just says you already know it, if you click on a tech they haven't learned yet it says they don't know it, if you try clicking on the X it says you have to pick a tech to steal, if you try anything else you get the same result.
