04APR11 - Hotfixes IV

GM Stormcrow wrote: Empty Scout Reports

Many thanks SC, I got this bug a couple of times in the old interface, rather annoying. Thought you guys hadn't seen my petition.

Hi all,

Today's hotfixes are:

Resource Bar Display Strangeness - Zeros
Some players were experiencing a strange phenomenom where their current Town resources would suddenly reset themselves to show zero resources and no production (and then went back up again after a few seconds).  This has been resolved.

Resource Bar Display Strangeness - Counting
Related to the above, an issue where some players' resources would neither count up nor down over time (ingame display only) has been resolved.

Accidental Double Building Upgrades
An issue where players could accidentally upgrade (via double clicking) their building upgrade buttons has been resolved.

Opera / Opera Mini / Opera Mobile
UIv2 now supports the Opera browser environment with the small (and hopefully temporary) caveat of a "spinning hourglass/wheel/other icon" that follows your mouse pointer.  We slightly got ahead of ourselves on the W3C standards by implementing a standard that is only currently in draft format (but is also currently supported by every major browser... except Opera). However,  we kind-of thought it was up to us to fix rather than Opera, given that it's a draft standard... :)

Empty Scout Reports
An issue whereby a scout would sometimes return an empty report has been fixed.  This issue was also present in the old User Interface, and was not UIv2-specific. The issue is quite a tortuous one:

It only occurred when:

• A diplomatic unit arrived to scout an occupying player army that was
• On an NPC square, when
• The NPC square also actually had resources available to harvest on it that
• Weren't being harvested by a player caravan at the time the scouts arrived... 

Nasty bug, but now resolved.

Regards,

SC
