just now i was playing on WOL and i made a hangar.

but i couldn' make air drones! there was no drone icon! even when i made a second hangar in my ally's base and set that to my primary hangar, i still could not access the drone icon!

i don't know what causes this bug but it certainly better not happen again. ATR can't function properly w/o drones

here is a screenshot proving what i said[attachment archived by Gobalopper]

I don't doubt you did upgrade the hanger. I think too that it is a (rare) bug

It happened in my game once too. It was 2 vs. 2. And I and my ally defeated one of the enemy, but he got just enough time to move in with his ally, and he also became Atreides, because he got a new MCV of his Atreides ally. But he couldn't make Air Drones, altough he had an upgraded Atreides Hanger.

That was what he said, and I believed him (he didn't build one)

You should be able to build an Atreides Airdrone with an Atreides Hanger. You don't need to have it upgraded. Upgrading the Atreides Hanger enables the construction of Atreides Ornithopters, and Atreides Advanced Carryalls. Why Navaros couldn't build Atreides Airdrones even though he had an Atreides hanger is something I find very unusual. It has never happened to me before.

The only logical explanation I could come up for this situation would be that there is a mod installed that disables the construction of Atreides Airdrones, but since it has already been mentioned that no such mod has been installed, I'd have to say this is just another weird bug.

Have people been experiencing this 'bug' for a long time and just not saying anything about it, or has it only been recently occuring?

Possibly its a bug or that's your ally's hangar...

obviously it's not my ally's hangar or i wouldn't be able to make carryalls. you have no clue how to play Emperor or extract information from screenshots so for the first time in your life why don't you go spam some *other* websites instead of wrecking my threads with your stupidness

to the Mods: i am not flaming loweezee, but i'm really sick of him harrassing me by posting nonsense spam every time i post anything just because he wants to be annoying

@ IxMace: i have played several thousand games of Emperor as ATR and had a hangar in almost all of those games. this is the first time i've ever seen it happen. so either it's a rare bug, or there are certain conditions that combine to trigger it

@Brennq:You said...

Maybe its the allys mod or something.

But nav said...

wtf it's not a mod file!

that was a regular WOL game and i don't have any weird Mods installed! just the normal 1.09 patch!

My reply is...

there are certain conditions that combine to trigger it

Could you buy drones from starport??? In games after this one, did you built a drone???

sure wish someone would nerf loweezee's spamming capabilities ::) [15 is *FAR* too generous, he should get 3 at the most]

can you ever buy drones from the starport? i never really buy stuff from the starport, so i didn't think to try it. i didn't know they sold drones tho. that's something i shoulda tried, but it didn't cross my mind

i had my ally give me a hark rax in base so i had AA, and then we killed the enemy before i needed to build a starport

the drones were back to normal in the next game. i didn't logoff WOL or anything. the bug just occurred in the one game

btw it certainly was not my ally using mod files because i played with him as my ally right before and after that game and bug didn't occur

You cant order air drones from a starport unfortunatley

You`re probably right. Long time ago that I can`t play Empy, because of my problem :( :'( >:(.

i encountered this bug 3 more times recently

i wish someone here would tell me the possible causes since i really don't wanna have to reinstall Emp seeing as i have a few tweaks setup in my Emp install and re-doing them all would be a major pain

if there are a few specific files that might be causing this because they have become corrupted, i'd wanna replace them manually instead of reinstalling so as i don't lose my tweaks

But I am afraid you might have to try reinstalling Empy.But I am also not sure if doing that would help.I suggest telling us more technical details so maybe Associate Professor Nyarlathotep will step in and help. :)

Have you installed A mod Or any thing like that?

Could be a memory problem (unlikely tho) Check your memory modules, maybe one of them crashed.

Have you installed any big programns ( meaning they use alot of memory) recently that also run while playing emperor?
