Zero power on transition from beta to gamma campaigns

Post by Bethrezen »

OUCH! that's one nasty little bug you got there just reloaded my save game at the start of gamma campaign and i got zero power and cant play any further

Fortunately i still have my save game from the previous mission so I'm not totally screwed just means I'll need to go back and play the previous level again

i know the dev's are already aware of this one just wanted to give folks that maybe don't know about this the heads up

when you are playing the campaign and you complete Beta 11: Evacuate what ever you do DO NOT SAVE YOUR GAME AT THE SUMMERY SCREEN !! just prior to the start of Gamma 1 if you do and you then try to reload that save you will end up with zero power and be unable to continue playing

if you play through with out saving it you will have 16000 power as you should and if you save once Gamma 1 is in progress your power level will be correctly stored and you wont loose your power this glitch only seems to affect saves created at the summery screen at the end of Beta 11 just prior to the start of Gamma1

this is an easily replicable problem and if you want my save from beta 11 for testing just let me know

Since no bug truly exists until it is in the bug tracker, I would suggest making a ticket and attaching the saved game to it.

hi

this one already has several tickets which is why i didn't ticket it but i can ticket it again if ya like because its still present in the latest stable 2.3.7 which is what I'm using

http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/1939
http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/2130
http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/1591
http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/1632
http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/1682
