Bug on Updating Ship from Governor Screen

from GalCiv2 Forums

I know you're probably aware of the bug that packs recent upgraded designs on the quickbuild and governor screen. This one may be a result of that:

I go to update the ship building on the governor screen. I've upgraded my ship class two times. So all three generations of it are showing. I've figured out now to go to the bottom one when it has the same name listed three times. So I update all my planets to build the brand new version of the ship with fast engines and everything. I leave the screen and check a few planets. Sure enough, they're building the new version.

After a dozen or so turns, I noticed that the planets were still churning out the old version. So I went back to the governor screen, and they were still set to the new one. The planets were all set to build the new one (every single one of them), but they were still pumping out the old version. The old one had speed 4, the new, speed 7. Then I went back to the governor screen and it showed one planet was now building the old version again and all the others were still building the new. Yet, no matter which one they were set on, every single planet spit out the old one. And every time I tried to set it right in the governor screen, it showed in the quick builder and ship screen that it was the newest version, but spat out the older one every time. Edit: I'm using the brand new patch.

BoloBouncer: I'm not sure whether the development team is aware of this issue, but I can say they will be from this point on.

Thank you for reporting this issue.

This was, from what people were telling me, going to be fixed in this last patch. It is, right now, my biggest gripe with the game. I was told by people in the chat that it could be worked around by swapping out production of the ship you're upgrading so that no starports were building that design, upgrade, and swap back in, but I still got this corruption. Guess it's back to clicking on the "upgrade" button and renaming the vessel. *sigh*

maybe a bug that is related to this is, that if you upgrade a ship, all governors who are not already build a ship now start to build the upgradet ship. in my game I own around 30 planets, producing 5 new battleships, upgrade 1 ship with a new engine, then 25 ships will be produced with that new design. maybe I just forget to trun off a special button ??
