Figured I'd start one to get the bugs that we've found so far posted. Started an infinities as the PA, and found these:

One that I found that wasn't caught until after the Betas was over is Wayland has only 2 reinforcement points, and with those 2, has a maximum amount of 7 units.

I could be wrong on this, but it seems in my playing so far that Blastboats spawned from Muni's are considered relevant for victory (you have to hunt them down and kill them to win, since spawned fighters weren't supposed to be anymore)

BTW, is FTGU supposed to get like 10 attacks per week from the AI? I've given up on that save game because it took 6 hours of actual playing to get from week 45 to 50 due to literal constant attacks. No more than finish a battle, go back to Galactic, and a popup for "space battle at wherever. Was really fun playing this for a while, but the constant attacks killed it.

I noticed the PA still don't have buildable plex soldiers even though they are in the manual.

I've also noticed with the remmnan that you can't build the e-web is this right?

tlmiller · « **Reply #3 on:** January 01, 2014, 07:42:13 PM »

Verified that I show shock troopers not available on any of my planets as the PA.

Remnant most definitely can build the e-web in at least some eras. Just started a new Thrawn Campaign then Reunification Campaign and verified it's available on all planets that I had a barracks on (or that I built on in Reunification)

Mmm strange that with Isard I couldn't well as she is famous for beign "stupid" let's say, makes sense that I can't build those. But if my memory is right you could build them in era 1

The visvia's fighter squadrons don't stay above it.

I just noticed that when I go look at the base layout on crustai that it does not show the buildings or the landing zones locations

A bug that I quite like, PA Venators (haven't checked if IR Venators also do it) are spawning like 6 or 8 fighters per wave instead of the 4 the manual says they should get (which I personally think is too low given the price of the Venator and it's complete uselessness even en-masse in combat).

Just got the game reinstalled on my cpu and d/l'd 2.1. Very excited to see all the new changes.

Start up a survival match, and bam I got no background and no UI. Figured it was a survival thing check several races and campaign's, but the problem only rears its ugly head when I go in battle, mostly no UI. However, I did get one battle that was all black.

2.0 worked perfectly, and I feel a bit perplexed. Hopefully I am not repeating someone else's post, but I didn't see anything about this for 2.1.

Oh, and I can't access building menu's on campaign map.

EDIT: Further investigation has lead me to suspect that this is related to the fact I installed on the D: drive instead of C. It's the only thing I can think of thats changed.

Multiplayer still freezes when you go into the host or join room, even after patch

Quoting a response from EEAW so that it doesn't get missed when we're collating bug reports.

I must say, this version of Thrawn's Revenge has me hooked. Although there are things about RAW I still love (the various extra people such as natives and civilians running around, the simple manner of a two-faction brawl, the Clone Wars era), I think with this new release I can now say I'd take TR over RAW. Job well done!

To discuss the new stuff: the Bu'direch is a nice ship capable of being a strong line vessel for a reasonable price, although I confess to already missing Kariek spams. The Lucrehulk's cost of 6000 credits and 6 pop is justified by its role being similar to the Endurance (and the ship is beautiful, by the way). The Visivia is simply awesome (though I worry about not needing the Brask anymore). The V-19, while not the strongest nor the fastest fighter, is certainly a nice addition. And the Alignment's PA--if I can figure out how to get to those couple of systems to get the Lucrehulk--is well worth playing.

That's a heap of compliments, and the only thing I can say is that I think you missed a couple of bugs. One, the Golans still do not regenerate their shields, or do so at such a ridiculously slow rate that the interface doesn't show it. Two, the space skirmish AI is apparently unable to build Asteroid Mining Facilities. (It also forgets to advance as the PA and EoTH in both modes.) It will "capture" them, but won't build on them, and without a cash flow for the other side, skirmish mode is boring.

But this is a minor issue. I'm very pleased at the new TR overall. Way to go, guys!

Playing as EotH, when you have a capital shipyard in a battle in campaign mode, you can build ships at survival mode prices in a space battle, instead of being able to buy upgrades.

Anyone notice this playing as other factions?

Playing as PA, in week 10 attacked Ession which was still under Warlord control. Invasion bar popup showed a group of stormtroopers defending the planet, when battle began all I found was an enemy-aligned abandoned vehicle factory but no enemy units. Could not end the battle without retreating - destroying the factory did nothing, auto-resolve was not functioning. However, after retreating auto-resolve from the campaign map worked just fine.

Hardly a big problem. Loving it so far... just got my first Lucrehulk, and they are quite nicely done.

When trying to start an Imperial Civil War GC, the New Republic is not a playable faction. It is listed under non-playable factions next to the Warlords and is not selectable. If there's an easy way for me to fix this myself through a file edit please let me know, as the ICW GC as the NR is something I very much want to play.

Mat8876 · « **Reply #14 on:** January 06, 2014, 07:16:13 AM »

The Imperial civil war gc is supposed to be only the IR and PA. The NR are supposed to be a minor faction. If you want to play as the NR you can play almost every other gc.

As Corey mentioned in the 2.1 Release Post we did originally intend for the ICW GC to be NR-playable but for some reason it triggers an exception error which makes the game crash. Until we are able to find out what causes this the GC has been made IR and PA-playable only.

Pali · « **Reply #16 on:** January 06, 2014, 06:35:45 PM »

Ah, missed that, apologies. Damned exception errors!

Mat8876 · « **Reply #17 on:** January 06, 2014, 10:21:39 PM »

Why not leave it as it is? I mean it's not like the NR need another gc to be in.

Sorry for the miss post, had nothing to with mod. Jumped the gun there, was busy and wanted to give it a try in my free time.

My previous problem has been solved. Not sure why, but my no-cd stopped working. Using disk fixed the problem, of course I went looking in the wrong direction; but that is life. As a result, I missed my opportunity to play the game for a while. Curse you guys for releasing it when I am busy!

Speaking only for myself, I enjoyed Art of War, but ICW is simply closer to how the actual storyline plays out - the Empire of the Hand isn't exactly conquering much of the galaxy, or even known to most of it, during the 15 or so years after RotJ, but the IR, NR, PA and various warlords absolutely were fighting each other. I played both Art and Essence as the NR in 2.0, and I'd love to play as them in 2.1's ICW even more because it better reflects the storyline. Also, 2.0's PA in Art of War didn't have functional AI - being able to fight against them as the NR on the bigger map is also something I'd enjoy.

That being said, if it ends up being a significant problem requiring a lot of time from the team to fix, I'd prefer they give it a pass and focus on Ascendancy, because I want that even more.
