Help sought on updating and correcting Bug list

[AndrewT]

With the release of 1.08 we have, in all likelihood, reached the end of the official patches for EU2. While this has not been confirmed by Johan publically, that's my judgement of the situation.

I'd like to get the stickied Known Bugs and Fixes post updated and corrected once and for all. I know I've let it go for a long time so there are numerous problems with it. There are fixed bugs still listed as unfixed, bugs listed as fixed but still in the unfixed section, and known bugs unlisted.

My idea is to rope you good folks in to help me clean up my mess. Please reply to this thread, one bug per post only, as follows:


- start each post with a paste of the entry as is, particularly including the bug #, as there are a number of duplicate or similar-sounding problems

- for fixed bugs listed as unfixed, please confirm yourself they have been fixed, and if possible in which patch (which should basically only mean either 1.07 or 1.08), and I'll move them to the fixed section

- for unlisted known bugs, please confirm yourself they are still occurring

- for bugs listed as fixed in the unfixed section, please confirm yourself they are fixed and I'll move them as is

- on all the above, if there is extra info that can be added to the bug description to help players find them let me know and I'll add it


Please confine all posts in this thread purely to the above categories, any discussion must go into other threads.


Thank you in advance to The EU2 Faithful (TE2F)!

Leader will appear in the middle of terra incognita with troops. As it is not an explorer, nothing can be done with it. The bug as been reported for MP only with 1.04 but another occurance has been seen with Portugal in 1.03

Isn't this just because the leaders are on board of a ship ?

nope.

I have had troops appear in TI in america

AndrewT: You mean up near Alaska? That's where the Province 0 troops do "appear" while on ship. Please continue this in another thread if more discussion is needed, I want this one to be purely for bug list changes. Thx.

No, it was not in Alaska but in florida, but I'm not positive it was with 1.08 now that I think about it.

The US technology appears unrelated to it's former owner
Reported In: 1.01 | Correction planned In : | Corrected In :

I'm not sure what is meant with this. The USA has Latin techgroup in the revolt.txt.
As far as I know that means it will be in LAtin no matter if it revolts from a exotic tech native. I would say it WAD, but I'm not sure.

Events can add a RM between two countries where one already exists.
Reported In: 1.03 | Correction planned In : 1.06 | Corrected In :

You can get 2 royal marriages to the same country if you are unlucky with the spymaster events. Subsequent firing of event 3016 resulted in no rm's at all if no suitable countries were available.

Fixed imo

One can be at war with a country and allied with that country in another war. It happens if you are part of an alliance, join a war with your ally, then do not join another alliance war (thus leaving alliance), enter another alliance which DoW on your former ally.

If your alliance enters a war without you, and then is declared war upon by another state before you have time to join the first war, you will never get the option to join the second war, which will be fought entirely without you.

Sometimes player can send only a limited numbers of merchants to a CoT although he has more merchants and enough money. Seems to be linked to having large numbers of TAs.

AI does not take into account the side of the port on a colony that cross over the Pacific and the Atlantic. In other words, a navy losing a battle against pirates in the Gulf of Darien chooses to retreat to Isthmus port which is on the Pacific side of the province.
