[TECH] Pitboss 39 IT and Tech Issues Thread

[wetbandit]

My techs are wrong. Agri Myst. Should be Hunting Wheel.

[superdeath]

assuming with all these tech screwups, that we wait for everything to be reset? so not worth (shouldnt?) settle/move ect?

[Erwin]

I have apparently screwed something up even through I tried to test the stuff. I'll look at it.

Edit: I have no trouble loading and playing the map in RTR 2.0.8.4 single player. Apart from that, I believe all the starting techs are correct. I looked at the WB file and it seemed okay, and I tried to load the game in SP with a few of your civs and everybody had the correct techs. What could be the problem?

[superdeath]

We are using 2.0.8.3 though?

[Erwin]

Yeah, but the save game shouldn't differ between RTR 2.0.8.3 and 2.0.8.4. I compared my savegame to PB37 and I couldn't identify any differences.

E: Apparently I screwed up the comparison to PB37 map, so there could be something wrong, but I'm not aware of that.

[Charriu]

I too have the wrong techs. I have Wheel and Hunting, but should have Hunting and Mining. Other than that everything is fine.

[ipecac]

My techs are wrong too.

Is this the first time this sort of thing has happened?

[JR4]

China`s starting techs were the correct ones. I have never heard of wrong techs being a problem before but if someone could take a look at it, that would be great.

[Dark Savant]

I suppose the report is almost redundant at this point, but I have Agriculture and Hunting in place of the expected Agriculture and Mysticism.

[Mardoc]

My techs are wrong too.

Is this the first time this sort of thing has happened?

No, it's an easy mistake to make if you make the map before civs are chosen, or if you shuffle around starts.  I've made that mistake before.  Changing civs around is typically done with a text editor, and techs are listed in a different location than the civ itself in the worldbuilder file.

I can fix the WB file, probably in the next hour or so since I just need NotePad, not Civ. Then the game would need to be rehosted.

Before I start, I want to confirm the techs should be this:
1. ipecac (Genghis/Zulu) - Agri/Hunting
2. wetbandit (Boudica/Mongolia) - Hunting/Wheel
3. yuris125 (Saladin/India) - Mysticism/Wheel
4. Dark Savant (Churchill/Inca) - Agri/Myst
5. Ghostpants - (Mao/Mali) - Mining/Wheel
6. Charriu - (Shaka/Khmer) - Hunting/Mining
7. JR4 - (Tokugawa/China) - Agri/Mining
8. Superdeath (Kublai khan/Egypt) - Wheel/Agri
