Bug With Charge Icons

Cannot Access Leftmost Charge When There Are 6 Charge Icons In a Row

from GalCiv4 Forums

There are 2 screen snapshots below.  The first one shows "good" behavior when moving the cursor over any of the first 5 (counting from the right) Charge icons.  The second one shows that the sixth charge icon cannot be accessed, either by moving the cursor over it to display the hover text or by clicking on it.

 

I cannot capture the cursor position when I take a screen snapshot but, trust me, it is hovering over the green Charge icon.

I've noticed this too.

You should get a description you did in III, but the two without numbers do not have charges thus can't be used so the developers may not have activated this yet.

With all due respect, your statement that "... the two without numbers do not have charges thus can't be used ..." is false.  When you just see the icon, it means you have one charge.  As you get additional charges the total number of charges is then displayed.

I have not been able to use one that does not have a number and does not popup, so if you are correct and you have a charge then it is another bug.

I have however witness one with a number disappear from the screen when I used the last and did not have a planet producing one.  The same with strategic resource icons no production no icon, production but not a full charge an icon is shown but can not be used.

Well that was interesting.

My bad. It appears that this is a bug that only the first 5 icons from the right will have an info popup, nothing to do with amount of charges as my current game my 6th icon has 3 and my 7th 1(no number) no popup for either.

My point about icons both strategic and charge disappearing I believe is still valid if you are not manufacturing them the Icon goes bye-bye.
