Crash when trying to acquire technology

[David]

I have tested it and it didn't allow me to manufacture the product if the required tech levels are not yet reached. (please see the attached screenshot.)

Did you set the required tech level for "manufacturing process"?

Example:
[SMARTPH] (This line indicates that it is about the Smart Phone product)
TOUCH_SCR=30,30 (This line indicates that the Touch Screen technology is required for the Smart Phone product)
VOICE_RECO=30, 10 (30, 10 means that the required Technology Level is 30, and its Weight to the overall tech importance is 10)
GPS_NAV=20, 20
MOBILE_UI=10, 40

When you add up the Weight of the above 4 technologies (30+10+20+40), the total Weight must be 100.

David, yes, it works with products that have not been invented yet.

My question is for products that have already been invented. For example the CPU. It states tech invented and tech known to me, as per default values. But it has my custom required technology missing, and I can still manufacture it regardless. Of course, production quality is $0 as a result, and it make senses.

It may not be a big deal, but I'm bringing it up just to make sure this is how it is intended. Hope it makes sense.

What is the required tech level of your custom required technology?

Could you take a screenshot of the manufacturer's guide showing your product and post the screenshot here to illustrate the issue?

[acf1]

See Manufacturing Guide. I am able to manufacture the CPU because the tech was invented and known by the core game default. I modded it to add a couple of tech requirements, yet, that doesn't prevent me from manufacturing using a production tech of 0.

Also, if raw material is 3/5 and Production tech is 0, why is product quality 13? Shouldn't be 3? This is the second time I see this where I have an extra 10 added to product quality. Incidentally, the first time it was producing desktop computers, which also used CPU as raw material. So I had an extra 10 value on product quality over my competitor, even when our raw materials and production tech where the same.

We will try to address both issues in the upcoming post-release beta version 4.4.00.

When the new version is available, please test it and see if the issues are resolved.

Here is the save game.

Sorry, but I don`t know what I did. The Bug comes from time to time. In the save game the bug comes in the first minute.

I hope I could help.
