Crashes, Bugs and Troubleshooting

Tango589 · 01-03-15, 09:50 AM

I've found that when I use the Foxtrot class sub, things go a bit screwy when I save and reload. The motor control panel and misc. systems control panel both 'fill in' the missing gaps, so there are suddenly inoperative turbine controls on the motor panel, and there are the missing ventilation section controls added back in, but inoperative, to both panels revert back to 'nuclear sub status'. Also, my crew members can no longer find their way out of their respective sections, despite me opening the doors for them.

I've also found that the mission log changes from whatever your starting choices were, to a USSR sub. For instance I started this mission in a French Foxtrot Class sailing from Marsailles, yet after saving and reloading, the log reckoned I was sailing a nuclear boat for the USSR out of Sevastopol.

I know you didn't design this sub, but would you be able to fix these?

I did make the Foxtrot actually! Thanks for pointing these bugs out, they shouldn't be too hard to fix. I'll probably release a mini update which fixes them soon.

Whoops, my mistake. BTW, how's the Sub Commander 3D going?

The problems you mentioned have now been fixed, redownload the game to get the update. In the process of fixing them I found and fixed a far more serious bug which could lock you in the menu and prevent you from saving or resuming the game

So thanks for pointing them out!

The 3D version is coming along well. I put it on hold for a couple of months, but I'm working on it again now - doing the code for the electrical systems at the moment, as well as modifying the multiplayer system to be more practical. Also I have found someone who may be able to do the 3D models for the game, which will hopefully make the development process much faster.

Downloaded v 0.27 - refitted the the Triton class sub at Tampa, USA and the torpedoes glitched into the sub...

I want to start of by saying that this is an awesome awesome game. I've even started spreading the word on it. There's on problem I have with the Typhoon-class, however. I think Hygroovy mentioned it, but I'd like to reiterate. Most of the bugs I've come across have been mentioned already, but I just figured out how to change subs, and on the Typhoon, my crew are unable to find a path to No. 1 Reactor Coolant Pump. Personally that's the only bug I've found, so

Good job.

on Win10 game opens in very tiny window with very small font. I tried setting OpenGl to 0 in option and fullscreen to 1, but wit no effect.

on WinXp game crashes on start.

Is there any way to make bigger screen and run on WinXP?
