Client Receiving Data error (Shark B bugged)
« on: March 08, 2014, 02:23:28 am »
Hmm What's going on. Every time I load this game I get that error. The game seems to work normally. Though I've only played for a while.

EDIT: boom mystery solved.
Disable Shark B --> no error
Enable Shark B --> error
---> Shark B is bugged EDIT:(B for Bugged?)

Shark A doesn't give an error.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this before. No one plays with Shark Bs? EDIT:not to be confused with shark bs Sharks need love too!

I saw an error when I set up Shark B as well, but I had no idea what it came from.  It's been too long since I played, so I had nothing to compare it to.
My other bonus ship is a TARDIS.

For 7.011:

* Fixed a bug where starting a game with Shark-B enabled (as the only AI Plot enabled, most likely) would cause client-receiving-data errors right off the bat.

Thanks :)

Will probably get that one out in the next few days, waiting to see if anything else critical pops up from this morning's bugfix stuff.  In the meantime I suspect that having more than one plot for that AI will workaround the bug.

Well I had Avenger, Beachhead, Hunter 4 and Shark-B 4 enabled for both AIs.

Ah, so worse than I thought.  Anyway, will be fixed in 7.011 :)
