Newly Built Buildins

Post by Killa Chikin »

Hey, i was gonna report this in the Report Bugs bit. But that wasnt lettin me connect. Meh.

When I built a buildin, it came up as called the last name someone wrote, instead of the one I had written for it. Then I brought up the Buildin Menu and instead of lettin me invest it said:

Purchase
Msg Owner
sumthin else

As if it wasnt mine, even tho id just built it. I tried clikin on everything (my way of troubleshootin ;-) ) and it didnt work. After about 5mins it went back to normal and i cud live my life happily investing and lobbing Rocket Propelled Grenades at people with my tractor.
Its happened about 4 times to me, on 2 Vehicle Shops an Airplane Hanger thing and a Fuel Station. :?:

2 reasons i can think of this happening:

were you close to any other buildings when it happened? might have been getting that buildings menu.

or

if thier was a recently destroyed building that was still ghosting the map and closer to you then the building you built. sometimes when a building is destroyed, nearby buildings will get odd graphical errors. like the name might reset to looking like its owned by its previous owner again.
