[1.05][BUG] Factions made using Faction Creator have no Tech Tree

from Elemental Forums

Thanks for adding the Faction Creator to the Workshop tools. I tried making a new faction and after I got a city going I discovered that it has no tech tree. In the Research Technology screen there are just five white (blank) circles where normally there would be Civilization, Warfare, Magic, etc. I noticed that in the Faction Creator it does ask whether your race will be Kingdom or Empire so it should be able to assign it the Kingdom or Empire research tree based on that.

Known issue. It's supposedly being addressed in another patch at some point tonight, but I think Frogboy said they were just going to disable the faction editor until they sort it out.

I didn't have problems with the faction generator, although I only made one kingdom, so dunno about empires. The tech tree is looking as it should be.

Hmm ok the one I made was Empire so it may only happen with Empire factions.

Hm, I made an Empire Faction as well and had that bug, looks like it is connected to the Empire than maybe. Kind of sad since I prefer their side to the good ones by far. ;)

They mentioned this problem in the recent hotfix. They disabled Empire faction creation until they get it fixed, but pleasantly they left the option to create Kingdom factions open since they work. Hopefully it'll be a simple thing to fix.

This seems to be working fine now in 1.06.
