Weird Bug?

Techs not showing in planetary improvements screen

from GalCiv2 Forums

 

Hi Folks,

I'm relatively new - Bought Gal Civ Gold Edition and played all the campaigns.  I downloaded Twilight of the Arnor from Impulse and it installed fine and runs.  However I have begun playing the campaign and I noticed something weird with the planetary improvements screen.  If I research new techs such as xeno lab or xeno factory, my planets will upgrade automatically, but if I go to build a new lab or factory it will show several of the old tech buildings like basic lab or basic factory but not the latest that I have researched.  Needless to say it makes it impossible to play the game properly as some techs I research won't even show up as options to build.

 

Has anyone seen this before and do you know how I might fix it?

 

Cheers.

If I'm not mistaken, there are some tabs above where they show planetary improvements on the planet screen.  They're labeled "Newest", "Oldest", and "All".  Sounds like it's showing "Oldest".  If you click the tab on "Newest" or "All", I think you should be fine.

Thanks - That seems to be all it was.  Until now I've never noticed those tabs.

Well that should make the game a little easier to play. :)

 There is the annoying thing that happens though, such as with the 'farming' techs. Since there is almost no need or want to ever have anything over a xeno or enhanced farm, since in most cases it is very difficult to have high enough morale to make populations over 20 billion worth maintaining. I never research that far up, but when I 'steal' one of the techs through conquering, every planet automatically upgrades every farm, I wish there was a screen that you could set certain improvements not to auto improve, instead of having to go through the multitudes of planets re-building the old ones back.
