Armies with edited custom names. appears with no name and can't be renamed after loading save

Post by ArcSine »

I loaded up my save game, and half of the armies that I have renamed are showing as blank.
Also noticed that, after the load, sometimes when I rename a new army, it would link that name with one of these bugged army too.
I'm guess some of the army name links get messed up when loading a game.

I guess its a cosmetic issue. But its kinda annoying having to play without a way to identify armies in the Ledger.
I've uploaded the save to Gdrive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1E_kjq7 ... sp=sharing

I will check that, thanks. I guess you did not update between saving and reloading, because the feature routinely works.

Do you mean update to a new patch? If so, then no. Just got the game on Steam last week.

I'll try to look at it this week, but you saved game would need to be the turn before the issue happens, and not when the army has its name blanked, is that the case?

The file I've sent over already have the bugged names.
But I did try renaming more stuff then reloading the new save file. The new names get bugged too.

Alternatively, I'm sending an entirely different save that has nothing renamed yet:

(I have a stack of 3 armies near Epirus. If you rename all 3, 2 of them will have bugged names)

The bug seems to appear on my games that have quite a large number of turns in.

I got it thanks, I'm trying to determine if somehow there is not a capacity limit here. Sorry for the long delay in any case.

I have renamed the 3 armies in Epirus and they kept their name the turn afterward. So either that's random behavior (with somehow a low probability) or that's system-specific.
I never got any other report about such bug, so perhaps it comes from the OS language. I know from where you come from ArcSine, given we talked by mail, so this might be the track to follow. I'll ask my fellows colleagues how realistic this hypothesis is.
