Dida, Continous Bombard works. See my post middle of this page (page 4).
There was a problem with giving an ongoing command being inturrupted by there being an enemy unit adjacent.

("Auto" bombard, meaning "take all bombard units on this tile and bombard this other tile" has never existed except in the wish lists.)

Firaxis--Bugs and patches SP

Originally posted by WarpStorm
I wouldn't expect any enhancements in the future either (as I didn't in this patch), just bug fixes from here on out (although, I'd like to be pleasantly surprised).

This is disappointing to hear


Previously reported SP bugs are not being fixed.

Firaxis needs to have a viewable list of submitted bugs and current status: naturally I would prefer that bugs are verified and commitment to fix is made, but even if Firaxis rejects bug report, we should know upfront that they do not plan to fix reported bug. It is not good PR to always have to search thru the forum and readme to see if reported bugs have been addressed.

For example, of my 6 reported SP bugs, only 1 has been addressed.

Bug A--Slow F3 screen
Status-- addressed

Bug B-- F8 screen, data does not change when switch from score to culture.
Status-- not addressed

Bug C-- F8 screen, data does not change when switch from score to power.
Status-- not addressed

Bug D-- Unable to toggle grid coordinates in not in debug mode
Status-- not addressed

Bug E-- Y-axis scroll enabled and can't see some of workers activities and polar city names.
Status--not addressed

Bug F-- preference migration from old patch to new patch not available.
Status-- not addressed.


I don't know about you all but I am getting real tired of no response from Firaxis. {Unfortunately on those rare occurrances of a Firaxis chat, I am unable to participate}.

Plan B is looking more and more inviting.

Well, Planetfall, B, C, and D aren't bugs, but rather working as designed so I wouldn't expect them to ever be fixed.

As far as a public list of reported bugs, why would they want this? Really.

[planetfall]

Warp,

If B and C aren't bugs, then at least the label over data should say score. It took me forever to realize that data was score numbers and
would not change when changed graph.

Granted D is an RFE. But they let us toggle grid. I had hoped they would let us also toggle coordinates. I really like coordinates but don't want to run in debug mode.


Ok maybe not a public list. But at least one member, you?, from the forum that could give regular players answers about their suggestions/bugs.
Just something to acknowledge time and effort we take to report items, and keep up enthusiasm for game. Even something as simple as:

[ ] not a bug, part of game design
[ ] not a bug, RFE may be considered
[ ] not a bug, RFE unlikely because of game impact
[ ] is a bug, minor impact, unlikely to be addressed
[ ] is a bug, major impact, likely to be addressed
[ ] received your suggestion, prefer not to comment publically

Anyhow, thanks for the feedback.

What botheres me the most, is the fact they didn't even think about fixing PBEM bugs... the mos timportant bug ever, was this bug:

preferences are saved in savegames, and not in the game... I want to open my turn, with MY preferences... I hate those damn circles the other players set under the units... (and lots of other annoying things... but this one is the worst)

[ricketyclik]

Hear hear.

How are we suppsed to make good sceanrios if there is no way to at least edit the diplomacy in editor.

How are we supposed to have good Hotseat exerience if it still has not some key features (mind you I still play it, but its still pretty much unfair).


AND WHY THERE IS NO PATCH CHAT!!!

[SpencerH]

Whats the point of a chat? The chats were dominated by trivia questions. We've never got to ask any questions about the tougher issues with the multitude of previous patches.

hi ,


oh yes we did , ..... thats how Gramphos made his tool , ....

have a nice day

[player1]

But at least in chats we got some info, like that there will be new patch, or that they are still working on MP, or what next will be patched, etc...


This more looks like that they've given up from further patching (my personal view, maybe I'm wrong).

Re: Undocumented Differences in PTW 1.21f I have noticed

Continuous bombard works. At least with naval units adjacent to enemy ground units. ...

But, as most people probably already know, with ground bombard and adjacent enemy units, it still does not. (Assuming you have "wake if enemy units adjacent" on).
