Disappearing factory

Post by Joep »

Hi All,

After a couple of days in this save-game, the factory of my subsidery company suddenly dissapears. When I rebuild it after a while, it disappears again.

The factory is called "Food Group Factory 57 (Guangzhou)".

BTW, I am on 5.7.07 beta

I am not able to find out why this happens. Can you tell me what's wrong?

We will investigate the problem.

Could you please provide us with your save game file and let us know the following?
1) The exact steps for triggering the bug with the save game
2) If your savegame uses a MOD, please let us know the name of the MOD and the MOD's version number.

You can find save game files of Capitalism Lab from:
C:\Users\<your user name>\Documents\My Games\Capitalism Lab Post-Release Beta\SAVE

You may provide us with your save game file by posting it here on the forum as a ZIP file attachment or emailing the save game file to us at info@enlight.com.

If your save game file is too large for attachment, you may check out this post about how to send us large files: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2473

Hi David,

1) When the save game is openend, the factory dissappears quite soon. Its not sure what triggers it.
2) I am not using any MOD's.

I loaded your save game and ran it for a couple years and the factory did not disappear.

I noticed that the factory is managed by the AI. There is a possibility that the AI closed it down. You could check the history of your company's operations at Information Center - Corporate Details - History. Enable the [Operations] tab on the History page.

When I run the savegame the factory disappears quite soon. Please see attached the history: nothing is logged about the factory being closed or something by the AI.

I ran your game until April 30, 2011 and the factory is still there. I have saved it to a save game file at that point. You may download and see if the factory will now continue to stay in the game.

When I run and pause your save game immediately, and scroll to the factory, its unfortunately gone again.

I ran the save game for a few more days and the factory is still there. Nothing happened to it - see the attached screenshot.

Would you please send me your save game on 30 April when the factory is gone ? I will look into it.
