[Fixed] Fleet "dots" don't update in Empire tree when ships auto-join the fleet.

November 27, 2008 1:04:46 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

I have observed this in single player 1.1 / 1.11

To reproduce:

Select some ships and create a fleet.

Set the rally point of a planet to be that fleet.

Build some ships and allow them to automatically move and join the existing fleet.

Mouseover the fleet icon and notice that the tooltip displayed matches the fleet composition. If you expand the fleet, you will see the full fleet.

When the fleet is collapsed in the empire tree, mouseover the dots beside the fleet icon, and notice that the tooltip does not reflect the new ships.  Additionally, the number of dots shown is not updated to reflect the true strength of the fleet.

If this is not clear I can post screenshots.

This has happened (or not happened) as long as i can remeber, which is since release. Maybe it's not considered a bug?

This is definitely a bug.. it don't see why the empire tree should show wrong information.

Bump.  This still exists in Entrenchment. 

Additional info:  The update does happen if the fleet is in the same grav well as the construction yards.  The moment the new ships have to make a jump to join a fleet, then no update happens.

Bump. This bug still exists in the current Entrenchment beta.

Fix it already. 

 

EDIT:

I'd be happy if this was simply acknowledged as a known issue.
