MINOR BUG IN NEW FEDTERM DISCOVERED

by Hazed

Following the release of the new version of FedTerm last weekend, we discovered a minor bug in the way planet information is displayed on the new systems page. Instead of showing an approval rating, the display showed negative disaffection - which means the same thing but is more easy to misinterpret. The reason for the bug was that Bella had coded that part of the FedTerm planet display before she made the recent change that introduced approval ratings, and she had forgotten to go back and amend the FedTerm code.

She has now fixed the bug, and there is a new version of FedTerm that displays approval ratings correctly. You can download version 2.02 from the FedTerm upgrade page.

If your planet has zero disaffection then FedTerm will show "approval: 0%", rather than "Approval rating: Satisfactory" which is what the basic planet display shows. This is because the space is limited.

Thanks to Caesar for spotting the bug.
