Official MGT2e Bug Report Thread

Can you update again as I am seeing a reported issue that was addressed. As for the the type field, I added Planet to the available types that will show the fields like atmosphere and what not to the main tab. I did check your records and see them being displayed with notes.

Attachment 66072

If there are any specific ones that you can direct me to I'll give that a look over.

I checked also this product (if its not the correct one, please let me know):
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/store...P40025GTRVMG2E

It unfortunately didn't contain any notes in the locations and I even checked the parsing data from the original developer.

You have the correct product, but i talked to the creator when it was first released (don't remember who that was now) and they added the planet descriptions in the notes fields. It used to be there.

I updated and a very few are showing up now, but still all of my starport and trade data is gone and most of the data is gone. I had every planet in Trin's Veil, Glisten, Distric 268, Sword Worlds and some others added to my campaign. I had descriptions, trade and starport data. Some had maps in the notes sections as well. I had started creating new entries for a few planets (assuming the system data was still present) before i realized all my system data was deleted.

Not sure i understand your comment on the type and atmosphere? I know that the new location tab allows me to create types and i did create a planet type, but none of the system type data shows up unless i type it in???

Can you provide me with the next oldest db.session file as the latest one didn't contain world or location data?

As for my type comment, I was referring to having only 'Planet', 'World', 'System' as the type with no other text to have it display the system data fields:

Try this one. I have some older ones.

I noticed that the Marches Adventure 2 has the location spelled wrong. It is spelled Sworld Worlds instead of Sword. The problem when you have too much content purchased is there are so many duplicate systems. Rather than one system with additional tabs for adventure content or something along those lines.

I am also seeing that when you pull up the locations tab there is a reference to where the location came from (ie the book). For some of the ones where i added content it has created a new category which is just a subsector name such as District 268. So because of how the ruleset is set up/organized, i have 4 entries for 567-908. One from Behind the Claw, one from Spinward Marches 1 - The Bowman Arm, one from Marches Adventure 1 - High and Dry and one from my addition.

Due to all of this confusion with too many copies for each system, when i was setting up my campaign, i copied my notes into each of the two, three or four planets that showed up in my library so that I wouldn't miss the data depending on which one i pulled up. Now it is just more confusing since one of the updates has created new planets for some of the ones i entered data on, but now even those i need to clean up formatting since it doesn't carry over the same data.

I now also noticed that you deleted the sublocations from the planets so now that has deleted a ton of other work that i have done. All of my detail has been deleted.

i think you may have just updated the systems in the module records directly. Please check the moduledb folder and post that file here for me to look at. I''m not seeing any systems stored within the campaign itself. Which leads me to believe it's just altered systems instead of copied records to the campaign

I definitely just updated the behind the claw and others since it leads to confusion and this was all done well before the whole new section on Worlds/locations was added. However, i also created new entries when the locations was added and made lets say Flammarion as a planet and added sublocations to that for bars, shops and a few other items. Those are now all gone too.

I would copy those out to your desktop for safe keeping and try to plug these files into the moduledb folder and see if it is still missing the notes for those records.

In exploring Locations I found one from the Great Rift Book one that is incorrectly formatted.

Tersta in the Khouth subsector of the Corridor sector (all names are correct in the filter) - no data for the entry. In the Type filter this is the only entry that shows the Statistics numbers rather than "World".


Detail from the book (Great Rift Book one, page 25):
Name - Tersta
Location - 0102
Bases - (no entry)
Statistics - C574522-7
Trade Codes - Ag Ni
Travel Code - (no entry)
Allegiance - Imperium
Gas Giants - (no entry)

Hi, in ship combat getting [ERROR] Script execution error: [string "MGT2:scripts/manager_spacecraft_combat.lua"]:546: attempt to perform arithmetic on local nThrustMod' (a nil value) when I tried to have it calculate initiative. I suspect I'm doing something wrong with how the ship is setup or something.

One more Locations quirk that feels like a bug to fix.

When entering a new location if the Type is not "World" or "Planet" the window suppresses the Sector and Subsector Fields.

Use case: Entering in all the various other planets in a system. Each should/can have its own Location entry.

So when searching the Trojan Reach as a Sector and then a listing of Planet - Gas Giant it brings up a listing of all the systems in the sector with gas giants.

If the Type is changed from World to a Starport, Planet - Gas Giant, etc. as a Type then currently the two Sector and Subsector fields are not available to enter information. Which prevents searching/filtering by those two fields.

The entry does correctly filter down below for any new Type we create. I would like to still keep the other two dropdown filters.

Edit:
After changing the Type to World or Planet and adding in the Sector and Subsector data, lock to commit, then change the Type back to something different the fields are still suppressed from showing but do work in the drop down filters as expected.
