Thread: 0.8 Building Description and Text Errors/Edits

    Default 0.8 Building Description and Text Errors/Edits

    BUILDINGS ONLY (no units here, but this does count for all regular buildings, unique buildings, and reform buildings)

    Report them here.

    Someone already mentioned in the Apollo temple series there is a "nand" instead of "and". That should be easy to search and replace.

    Anyone else find problems in this area, errors in export_buildings.txt, should report them here and in 0.82 and future builds we will try to have them ironed out.

    Thanks!

    When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball

    Thanks guys, keep them coming. These will all be corrected if you catch them and note them here.

    K1-MIC is described as a recruitment building for western greeks usuable by makedonia and Baktria. Certainly seems like an error, since Baktria is one of the farthest east factions you can choose.

    That's a complicated error. The system is using the base descriptions (which usually return "error!") for some starting buildings - you can tell because it says (Western Greek) when it shouldn't in the tooltip passover. We put generic descriptions in for our MIC's and some nomad buildings to get it to look a little better at least. If it's one of those you refer to, a MIC level that is placed at the start of the game, then we can do little to stop it it seems. It's one of the only things that we just scratch our heads and say "we give up" after trying to find out for a year why the game does that to some buildings placed at the start of the game (when they never do that once you are in game and build it).

    Makedonians and Baktrians share that factional MIC as successor states. Similarly, Seleukids and Ptolemaioi share a factional MIC.

    Not really the place for such a question, but they give you a better chance of getting positive traits and ancillaries. *I think*.

    Asklepieion and Mega Asklepieion:

    Throughout the description and the english name of these two buildings Asklepieos (the god) is written as: Asklepios, Asklepieos and Asklepeios.

    In the description for the roman Quinquerreme, it says something like:

    "...a huge (Latin name for Carthaginean here) Quinquerreme was found abandoned on our coasts..."

    Cheers!!!

    PS: Hey... this is only for reporting little errors like the one above, or is it also for reporting missing descriptions? Cuz I`ve found quite a bit, for example the description of Roman Large Stone Walls, Roman Mines, Roman Large Mines and so on...

    Don't worry about missing building descriptions. We're tracking that behind the scenes.

    I'm not sure about unit descriptions.

    Not sure if this is the correct thread, but there are two wall/fortification buildings in Mtskheta, just north of the Hayasdan starting capital. Don't know if one is just a place-holder or what, but . . .

    Just started playing a new game as Lusotannan. Not sure if it has been reported but the small trading port (forget the exact name), the building that takes like 32 or 33 turns to build, has a picture of a barracks on it. If you want the exact name let me know and I will give it to you sometime when I am at home and not at work.

    Writing building descriptions is alot of time, believe it or not if you want a good one. The Romans should have all their buildings done shortly though.

    In the amber road there is a place where a space is needed between "sea" & "merchant". When I first read it I saw it and thought, "What is a seamer chant?"

    Is this where I put typos in building descriptions, etc?

    If so:

    Qarthadasti buildings:
    On Grant of Land, it reads, "A land grant is governmental lisence to a specified area." This should be licence.

    On the Medium School, it reads, "Arithametic", when it should be Arithmetic.

    Actually "license," but the important thing is pointing it out.

    Actually both spellings (license v licence) are correct depending on your location and dialect.

    Semantics!
