Browser Issue

FOR INFORMATION ONLY:

Only just started playing and had an issue with Internet Explorer browser. When changing from one page to another the browser used a cache page even though I'd setup to check for new page every time.

The effect would be wrong fleet or build times, message flags after you'd deleted all messages etc. In the short term I just refreshed to clear the issue, but it was annoying.

I finally downloaded Firefox and that works fine.

Something like this also happens on Firefox and Chrome;
When you go to messages and delete then, if you change building it will show error.

That is the message flag Jengo was talking about, im sure this was said a long time ago.

However sometimes it results in things like sending troops on a mission to transport, and the resources not going with them. Ive had this problem several times.

Probably already been mentioned on the forum but...

If you click back after sending a fleet to access fleet screen again, then always click 'refresh' on fleet screen before you send it.

If you don't do this, and just click send and go straight back, it means that any values in resource box will not count.

This also fixes issue with transporting when you go back and the number of resources is greyed out. Just a pain to remember

yea, the weird thing is, even if you hit the "update" button after entering the resources, that is not enough. you actually have to refresh the page. Ive had times also that Ive entered too many resources compared to the storage amount, changed the troops I was sending, and changed the amounts, and ended up sending 0 resources with the troops.

I had a similar issue when you click back and the resources are grey. All I do is change the transport to say attack or colonize and then back to transport and it is then normal and you can send with the same amounts as before.
