1) Crash when opening planet page on uncolonized worlds. Mentioned to Cari on IRC and she seemed to already know what that problem was...

2) Auto-survey seems to not work now, it was fine in B3... hit A while survey ship is selected, or hit the button in the ship window, either way nothing happens.

The auto-survey worked fine for me.

Auto Survey will only work if there are anomalies in explored space.  If they're under the FOW, it won't go to them.

The GNN Report lists 3 civilizations Terran should be number one in the game I am playing but the summary shows humans in last place.

Hit the P key to place a rally point, left click an area of the map to bring up the R.P. dialog, then hit the cancel button.

The R.P. is still placed on the map.

By setting my military spending to 100% and then edging social spending up and down I was able to get social spending to go below 0 which then crashed the game when a turn was ran.

When you select to upgrade one of the prebuilt ships, you can get a better grade of ship because it doesn't properly calculate space used by the pre-defined components. So long as you do not remove any of these components, it will not recalculate the space usage. As a result, if you just add on a few pieces (i.e. engines), you get a better starship than should be possible with your tech level.

Most notoriously this is found with the colony, transport, freighter and constructor ships. All of which have a large module on them, which may be the source of the problem.

At first I thought the problem was that removing the old components wasn't giving back it's full value, but a little tinkering revealed the truth.

When I have updated my older custom ship design, for example with newer lasers, I can't build ships acoording to the upgraded design, I just get the old one instead.
Hope this helps..

String problem: When you defeat a race, it mentions that their last star system has fallen, but the name it gives is that of the final planet, not the star.

That doesn't make alot of sense....i noticed that GC2 Beta 3 Used alot of Stuff back from GC1 (namly the Old News Bot we all knew and loved) not to mention Strings from it, i think they stole from it (in a way yes..)

CTD trying to start my first beta 4 game. I got all the way through selecting galaxy size, race, and opponents, but crashed when it should have been showing me the generated galaxy map. Report sent to gc2bugs.

Forgot to mention, I had uninstalled beta 3 and then installed beta 4 from scratch.

If you mean clicking on the Details button, I just sent an smartexception report of that to gc2bugs.

Just a reminder: This is the thread we'll be checking first when we do a bug report check.

Queue List for Social Improvements broken. In one of my games, I am unable to continue building social improvments. The queue list for all my planets remains fixed and immutable. I can supply a save game.
