Required Information in all Technical Support Requests

Please ensure that you provide the following information for all questions posted in this Technical Support forum.
  • Version and language (e.g. 8.00 Hotfix 3, English, etc.).
  • Whether or not your game is modified using any third party scripts or mods (see note below).
  • The game start you originally selected for the game in which the problem occurred.
  • Exact nature of the problem, where and when it occurs and what you were doing at the time.
  • Any possibly relevant changes you have made to your game, system, or software before the issue occurred.
  • Where appropriate, additional symptoms, error messages, links to saves, screenshots and crash dump files (see this Wiki entry).
  • Your system specifications in the form of a DxDiag report and vulkaninfo (see this Wiki entry).
Failure to provide all this information will make it pretty much impossible for people to help you and may mean that it takes longer for your problem to be identified and hopefully solved. So please don't waste your own time and everyone else's by just posting something like "My game freezes. Help!!!".

If you are supplying information that will not conveniently fit into posts in this forum (approx 70,000 character limit per post), in the worst case you can split long text files across 2 consecutive posts, or ideally you can upload the data to a reputable public fileshare site (a few examples are Google Drive, DropBox or PasteBin, etc) but please don't use sites that spam advertising or require registration for downloads. Please use in your post the open public sharing link to your file(s) that will not require any account or registration for others to download.

Note: Support for third party modifications must be provided by the authors of those modifications, and any requests for such support should be posted in the appropriate thread in the Scripts and Modding forum.

[#5024]The outcome of a diplomatic incident shown in the logbook displays variables instead of faction names.

Post by Hollex »

Basically, I investigated the second investigation of the espionage network, the one that automatically triggers diplomatic incidents, and a diplomatic incident was generated between TER and MIF.

This incident didn't interest me, so I didn't take any action. When the diplomatic incident was resolved, the result was shown in the logbook (status quo).

However, in the logbook, you can see that the name MIF has been changed to a variable "SHORTFACTION1$".

I honestly don't know if it's a misassigned variable or if the Spanish text is no asigned.

Version 8.00 HF4 UNMODDED

Save: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lvg6p0 ... sp=sharing

It's the first entry in the logbook in the save.

It's a missing character in the Spanish translation. This will be fixed in a future update. Thanks for the report.

I don't know if it's important, but the same thing has happened to me again, this time between ARG and FRF, with argon being the one displaying the variable name.

Although it shows the same variable, "SHORTFACTION1$", as the original post.

Yes, that one will be corrected at the same time. :)
