rich12545 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 In the hope that bug was in fact fixed I started another game. Setup was on an island with two starting cities. Island was a bit bigger. I could not build a ship or shipyard in either city because it apparently wasn't a coastal city although both looked it. One of the cities already had a destroyer in it. I was able to move the destroyer into the ocean, even though neither was a coastal city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John DiFool the 2nd Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Yeah, had the exact same problem (and I just DLed it tonite in the hope of getting some game time in)-thought I was going crazy or that Brit put in some new feature. Both cities are right on the ocean-can't even build a shipyard (so that can't be a prerequisite). Total gamekiller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John DiFool the 2nd Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 And then it CTDs after 7 turns... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Balaban Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Any close by cities on other islands? Paratroops? Thats why I posted to have planes to fly one way missions to scout and drop paratroops to captue other islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 You're not going to get paratroops until you do a lot of research. Unless you make your own ruleset and include them at the beginning. I'm out of play anyway due to a crash bug until it gets fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John DiFool the 2nd Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Okay, after 15 turns or so I can now buy ships in these towns, even tho the only thing I researched was Biplanes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Okay, after 15 turns or so I can now buy ships in these towns, even tho the only thing I researched was Biplanes... The bug in the last version had an odd effect: if you discover a large amount of water around your coastal city, it was considered to be a "coastal city". This means that at the beginning of the game, your coastal cities "aren't coastal cities", but if you fly your zeppelin around and discover more water near the city, then it is considered a coastal city. If you loaded a saved game and there was already a large amount of water discovered around your city, then it worked fine. Anyway, an update is available.

Das123 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I'm experiencing a problem where a coastal city doesn't have ocean access. The city can construct ships, has the small anchor, but ships can't leave or enter the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I'm experiencing a problem where a coastal city doesn't have ocean access. The city can construct ships, has the small anchor, but ships can't leave or enter the city. There is an rare issue where some cities just barely have sea-access. (Usually, they have access in one small passage to the upper-right, upper-left, lower-right, or lower-left.) They can build ships, but can't sail in or out of the city. I'll be looking into it. If you think it's a different issue, or you're having this problem with a lot of cities, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
