Boric the Quick Under 1.55.377081

from GalCiv4 Forums

The screen snapshot below shows the results of a survey.  It says that I should find Boric the Quick in my shipyard, available to build.  However, Boric the Quick does not appear as available to build.

The following link is to a save that will allow you to recreate the issue:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/wmpcll2svna9p5h/Boric%20Under%201.55.377081.GC4Sav?dl=0

After loading the save file, do the following:

  1. Click through the 18 research mission results screens (another example of why a mission ships results summary screen is needed!)
  2. Click on the Research icon to select the next technology to research.
  3. Select a technology (I selected Orbital Deployment Mastery).
  4. Click on the Event icon in the lower right-hand corner (it's the exclamation point icon)
  5. The screen snapshot shown below should appear.
  6. Click on the button to close the window.
  7. Check for Boric the Quick in a shipyard - he will not be there!

Actually, I saw the same graphic for about 3 reports in a row.  The first one seemed appropriate - it was the one about slums, but the next ones did not fit with the picture.

I reported the same thing in the previous version.  It's almost like the pictures aren't hardcoded to the events and somehow get hung up on the same picture for a few cycles.  Not hardcoding them doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but I'm sure there's something in the code causing this to happen?  Whatever is happening, it is a minor glitch that's immersion breaking and needs to be fixed one of these days.

Either Boric the quick met a quick and fiery end in that image, or we could use some more variety

Not just variety, relatability.  BTW, that picture is the one for the burning slums event.
