As expected, single player custom faction fun is curtailed for the 10% of people who do multiplayer. Not really a fan of this sort of thing...

• Summary / Title: Population added on outpost.
• Description:  The Event "Babies not Bombs" adds 1 population on an outpost that is not a colony yet (should still have 2 turns to go). This also triggers a warning that the outpost is contested. On next turn the outpost will change to a colony (1 turn sooner then it should) with only 1 population (the one added) and missing my faction population.
• Steps to Reproduce:  Load the game and inspect outpost "Traitor's Reach". You can load the save from a turn before and hit "end turn". I always got the same incorrect extra population placement.
• Reproducibility: 5/5
• Expected Behavior:  Population should be added on colonies not outposts. 
• Version: 1.0.16

Hi,

it is important for the multiplayer that you have to think about what you play. If not you set in all the traits for your race and all races will have then 20+ traits. 

Disable it for KI and Singleplayer would be not bad.

Custom race creation error.

Hi ,

by creating a race you have now a count for traits . You allowed 8 and you can choose 8 and save but the race then showed as invalid. 

With 7 it works so change the count to 7 or let the 8 be playable.

ccmaster 

PS : good idea with the count have had more then 20 the last races I build 

PSS: you should remove all the traits for races they could not us.  Example : Riftborn / Ship Bound could take Black Thimb but dont us Food.

        And the other 100 :P

I have to say, this is the single thing I hate the most with the new system. Hate it. I so desperately want the 'trait count' to be an option that can at least be disabled or ignored in single player games, and likely I'll search for a mod first thing which disables this if I can.

Can't reload savegame

• Summary / Title: Can't reload save
• Description: executable error after status: "game launched"
• Steps to Reproduce:
•  1. Load save
• Reproducibility: 5/5
• Expected Behavior: To be able to load saved gamr
• Version: 1.0.16
• Note: Particular save contains Galaxy of the lasrgest size, with all races in game at turn 164

Workaround:

1. Verifying local file integrity does not help
2. Reverting Beta batck to latest patch resolves the issue

Following workaround also worked:

1. Start new game

2. Load save game from new game

Having tried out hte new patch found that:

• Galaxy map GUI reponse times are much better
• AI offered to join Alliance - something they have never done before
  
• No improvement can be noticed for battle result calculcation when the AI will retreat from a clearly overwhelming force (takes ardoun 7-8 seconds)

The above issue persists even after the save game has been reloaded via the above workaround, player, saved via the new version and reloaded again

This means that the workaround needs to be applied for each reload even if saved via the new version

also: Quest reqwards and not inflated (Gambit quest gives 1000 credit at arond turn 200)

Played around 80 turns in large 8 player galaxy.   Performance is great,  input lag is almost 100% gone.  Great work and fastastic game in general!

One thing I did notice (maybe new with 1.016,  maybe not!) is that the game uses memory in a way that I would diagnose as a leak:

Turn 78,  examined in Resource Monitor:  5945KB commit, 4580 private

Save,  exit,  and re-load the game:  3989 commit,  2146 private

I figure maybe I should play some turns because many structures could be created during AI turns that would not "leak" but hang around until you exit.

Several turns later:  4719 commit,  2886 private.

I know tracking down memory leaks in Unity is trickier than other programming environments but still..   you are going to get lots of posts of "game performance degrades over time" as the high memory usage causes swapping, etc.

Good luck!

Hey AmpliMath, 

I verified the game files and reinstalled the game, twice. I am also unable to to start a new game (https://www.games2gether.com/endless-space-2/forums/65-general/threads/26986-preview-version-1-0-16-test?page=1#post-242054) and the game is crashing while alt-tabbing from the main menu (https://www.games2gether.com/endless-space-2/forums/65-general/threads/26986-preview-version-1-0-16-test?page=1#post-242054).

Had none of those problems on the previous patch and by changing the branch back to 1.0.11 all is working fine again, including the savegame.

I'm also on an old AMD apu/gpu so maybe some related issues are creeping back?

Yes this is definitely weird, unless one of the optimizations (we did some stuff on the improvement of influence circles) is not working. I have looked at the diagnostics file, but I see no error and it feels cut short, maybe because the game crashed. Can you send the Output_log file of the crash please?

Cheers

I meant the output_log of the crash when starting the game, not the output_log of the crash where alt-tabbing, whic I already have.

Been playing this version for the last couple hours.

Everything seems to be running fine.

I still find the AI to be not very aggressive at all.

I am at turn 134 with a top contender in the score and have seen no aggression from any other race (as far as fleets attacking me).

It generally helps to provide saves with this kind of info so the devs can take a look at what is happening.

The AIs in my game don't seem to be passing laws properly, judging by the fact I'm in 1st place for passing all parties' laws while having only passed 1 party's:

This also seems to be a bug - you shouldn't have achieved this if you've only passed laws from a single party!

This worked for me too.

Also V1.0.16 resolved:

- turn 280 lock. Successfully passed two more turns (didn't try further though)

- even if framerate is around 40-50 wtih no reason, game is comparatively smoother than previous version.

I have desync problems in MP sessions.

Hi again,

So I have discussed this and it is a very complex problem. We are still looking into this.

in general better performance, non of the issues above

Would like to mention gamebreaking feature you've introduced:

Vodyani heroes have ability that gives 1 flat FIDS / level to everyone in empire. That resulted in every of my population unit producing extra 26 FIDS, way too much for a single ability. Had to abandon the game, becouse it became waaay too easy).

OK we will look into it. You had me very worried at first, I thought the game was freezing / crashing!
