Anomaly/Autonomous Materials required bug

System: PC

Steam Digital Deluxe version


Vodyani playthrough

Homeplanet received a "hostile fauna" anomaly. Tooltip says I need autonomous materials research to reduce penalty. Shift+click would not take me to the research tree or highlight research. Manually entered tree chose and completed research. Attempted to access anomaly reduction button through both planet view and empire summary views. In all cases reduction button remained greyed out and tooltip still stated I needed autonomous materials research. Saved, exited entirely, restarted, reloaded game. Still wouldn't work. Any fix, suggestion, or word on this issue?

In my scramble to get relevant info together, find the save file, and try to clearly recall what I did, and in what order to give them accurate info I put shift instead of ctrl. That said given I'm new with no history with you, it's exceedingly difficult to tell if you came by to troll or what given your statement/correction did nothing to help. If I assume you're trying to help then know that ctrl-click or any combination of any kind still didn't help in any way (even though I did indeed follow the tooltip when the issue first came up and the result was still bugged). I included mention of the lack of any click in hopes they might have some clue why this issue is occurring.

I specifically included the save file for those looking to understand the problem. Given my install is new and vanilla as can be I'd even be interested to know if someone else has the same issue.


** For clarity's sake the issue of importance is the fact I supposedly need autonomous materials research to reduce an anomaly but even when researched the anomaly cannot be reduced or interacted with in any way as it should.

No trolling intended on my end. At least it works for required colonization techs in system or planet view. Not at home atm, to recheck in case of anomaly tech - but as long as you tried to do so and it didn't work...

Vodyani cannot reduce anomalies or terraform in general. Like at all.

Wow, dunno how I completely missed that. Many thanks for the info! Seemed entirely like a bug given nothing I came across in playing them made that obvious and worse things like the tool tips suggesting I could indeed still do those actions. I'll close this then.
