Capitalism 2 and Capitalism Lab Forum

There is a bug where, the research of any product of a sub company stops after a while. For example, i started researching leather wallet, leather bag, leather briefcase in 1995, After 20 years later leather bag tech is still being researching but leather briefcase and wallet stops. The research center becomes a clean r&D.

Is your subsidiary R&D firm managed by an AI manager or you self manage it?

You may see the "Changing the Firm Manager" section on this web page: http://www.capitalismlab.com/subsidiary-control.html

My subsidiary R&D firm is managed by AI manager. I dont let them manage the R&D part. The problem is some subs R&D are ok but the same ones eventually will stop researching.

i just checked, even when i take control of the R&D of my subs, it still stops researching after a while. I think this is a bug.

We will investigate the problem.

1. Verision 4.4.20
2. There isnt really any exact steps that i did to trigger the bug. I just let the time running by it self and i would see a message where my sub bought a technology for the product that it was suppose to be researching. So when i checked the R&D it is just all boxes with no research.
3. The winrar file is too big so ill email it

I have emailed you an updated EXE for testing. Please let me know if it resolves the problem for you.

i did not receive an email with an exe yet.

Our programmer has made a new version that should fix the bug. 

Please apply the attached updated EXE v4.4.22 into your game.

To apply the new version, extract the attached RAR file to your Capitalism Lab program folder. You can open your Capitalism Lab program folder by right-clicking on the Capitalism Lab game icon and select “Properties”, then select “Open File Location” to open the folder. 

Please let me know if it resolves the problem for you.

I tested the new exe for about an hour. I dont see any problems as of now. I will update if a problem comes up again.
