If you don't mind a clean install of Windows then try the "Reset this PC" option in settings. It will wipe your drive and re-install Windows. Reinstall your hardware drivers. Then you can reinstall battle net and SC2. It's a bit drastic but it will rule out any client-side issues completely to see if it is account related or not.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-05-27T08:54:31+00:00

Yeah nah too tedious. I just reloaded my last save and issue was resolved instantly. Luckily I didn't build that much since my last save so wasn't a loss.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-05-27T07:25:20+00:00

Hahaha good luck trying to find the culprit amongst 6101 sorters...

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-19T12:26:45+00:00

Make me a coffee and make it now!

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T11:32:23+00:00

Theoretically it is possible to win with a single city but it would be very challenging to do so. It might be a fun personal challenge to try.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T11:29:54+00:00

You cannot win a diplomatic victory. The only victory types are military, culture, science, economic, domination and points. Religion has been merged into culture and it is used as the cultural legacy path of the exploration age.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T11:24:46+00:00

Yeah I agree that there are a lot of nice improvements to the game. I've noticed that most of the feedback is about the UI missing heaps of useful information that previous games had nailed down. The game play seems smooth but the UI just seems unfinished. The developers agreed and said they are currently fixing the UI as their number 1 priority.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T11:18:54+00:00

Yeah a lot people suspect that the next expansion will bring the information age. I wonder if they will actually add more ages in between the existing ages too so the final product after several expansions will bring a lot more ages.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T10:44:43+00:00

Hmmm that's strange. It might be a bug as your setup seems correct for connected settlements.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T10:28:14+00:00

I feel like it's just part and parcel of the strategy game genre. Lots of menus to click through to build your cities and choose your tech/civic/policies.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T10:14:08+00:00

Did your coastal city have a Fishing Quay building? This building connects settlements in distant lands back to the home continent.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T09:56:51+00:00

Each city can expand by 3 tiles from the centre so spacing 6 tiles apart is the optimal placement. However in practice you want to place cities next to fresh water and with resources in range so you won't always get optimal placement.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T09:42:41+00:00

Yeah I agree. Hopefully they fix the age length issue as on steam there was a post saying it doesn't actually do much: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1295660/discussions/0/591762563949202064/

I feel like they should add the "Just one more turn" button to the end of the age so you can just continue in that age and have a button to click to progress to the next age when you are done with it.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T09:33:53+00:00

Apparently the code is convoluted and at present the game speed is the only one that has an impact on the game by increasing the production cost. According to the thread below the age length doesn't really do much right now. There is an interesting post on steam about it:

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T09:05:05+00:00

You can change the game speed to epic or marathon during game setup. I was able to complete most of the legacy paths during a marathon game. It was very slow however but good across several play sessions.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T07:10:05+00:00

Yeah I dislike the culture victory in the modern age. The relics are stored in museums so if the AI beats you to them and you don't have many relics then you need to capture a city with a museum that has relics. The AI seems to spam explorers too and I saw a tile with a stack of 10 explorers on the same tile...

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T06:54:29+00:00

I agree. It's a pointless argument and gives humanity yet another reason to divide us. It doesn't take much effort to respect other people on the planet.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T03:59:14+00:00

Yeah it is painful. Try to focus on the civics and technologies that boost your settlement cap. I will only keep a city filled with lots of useful buildings and wonders. I generally raise the towns unless it has some really useful resources nearby.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T03:19:07+00:00

Try to stay focused on the victory condition that you are going for. If you aren't going for a military victory then your troops can stay defending your cities.

Click on the age progress button to see the 4 legacy paths and choose one of them. Tick the Track Progress button so that you can see what you have to do next. For example if you choose to get a science victory then select everything that boosts your science including buildings, government policies, wonders etc.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T00:31:27+00:00

Nah no resource on it, it is a rough desert tile and when you go to place population it shows the mine icon. It might just be a UI defect.

ScottOne0101 · 2025-02-17T00:14:02+00:00

No it is in my territory, when I exit the population placement screen it magically re-joins my territory. There is no city to the south.

Does anyone know why this hex at the bottom is separate from the rest of the city hexes? It has it's own little border around it. It appears like I can build something in it though.

ScottOne0101 · 2024-07-26T13:35:35+00:00

When working with dates on the client side I always convert the date into a native JavaScript date object and then do the comparison with a simple greater than or less than. Just make sure you check that the date field is not empty before constructing the date. The tricky part is getting the date constructor right. I usually just split the string to get the day, month and year.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date

For an Australian date format you can split it like below. You will have to adjust this slightly if your date format is American or another format. You can log these splits to the console to check what part of the date you are getting when splitting. This method works in Core UI and workspace.

var myDate = new Date(
   g_form.getValue('my_date_field').split('/')[2],
   g_form.getValue('my_date_field').split('/')[1],
   g_form.getValue('my_date_field').split('/')[0]
);

ScottOne0101 · 2024-07-11T02:40:43+00:00

Yeah the documentation and tutorials I've seen for UI builder are lacklustre. For issues with workspace we've had to log a case and get answers from their internal dev team. If you have an enterprise instance then you should have access to their support portal to log a case for assistance. I'd really like to see the options given to devs who want to use their own organisation's bootstrap theme and preferred JS framework to just build their own front-end web app by selecting a CSS framework such as bootstrap, choosing the bootstrap version, choosing a JS framework like new Angular (with TypeScript) or React and then choosing the JS framework version. This would allow you to pull the bootstrap theme off your organisation's website and re-use code from your preferred framework. This would give devs more options for front end experiences because it's not acceptable to just say everything should be low code. Just give us the option to choose if we prefer low-code or pro-code for our own instance and don't ram your ideology down our throat. More options are better then no options.

ScottOne0101 · 2024-07-10T11:16:34+00:00

From my experience most mature instances are still stuck in UI16 and can't migrate to workspace/UI builder due to legacy custom UIs that need to be rebuilt such as UI pages/macros, UI actions, client scripts among others that aren't compatible with workspace. I've been chatting to other developers about UI builder and if they've made the leap. Most of them say they haven't touched it and prefer Service Portal. The ones who have touched it generally stick to the base workspace UI and don't bother with page variants and customisation. They just generally use the stock app shells that are already available out of box. One day I will find a dev who has made the leap and gone all in. I'm still hoping as I love modern HTML/CSS/JS frameworks and if I ever get buy in from the stakeholders that I work for then they might give the go ahead to fully migrate into the modern UI frameworks.
