Lost the Ability To Produce Modules In Shipyards

from GalCiv4 Forums

This is a bit of an odd one.  I had the ability to produce modules in my shipyards, but now I do not.  The first screen snapshot below shows what I see.  The "Manufactured Goods" heading is visible and the scroll bar shows that I am at the bottom, but I cannot see the "Produce Modules" option.

I saved the game to send it to you, but after restarting the game and loading the saved game, I can once again produce modules as shown in the second screen snapshot below.

Good luck with this one.

I was going to suggest a verify files. Seems the game did it for you. Sounds like a missing file problem to me since solved.

There is nothing wrong.  Well, almost nothing.

Look carefully at the lower-right of the first picture, above the X in the box.  You will see the top part of a down arrow (a triangle pointing down) that signifies the Manufactured Goods section can be open/expanded, which means it is closed/collapsed, which hides everything in it.

The next picture shows an up arrow (a triangle pointing up) that signifies the section can be closed/collapsed, which means it is open/expanded, which allows everything in it to be seen.

I'm going to guess that loading a save sets them to a default of open/expanded.

The only thing wrong is that, when the section is closed/collapsed, you can't scroll down enough to see clearly what has happened.

Thank you, Old-Spider.  I did not know those sections could collapse and expand.  I must have accidentally clicked on the arrow and collapsed that section.
