City doesn't produce correctly

[Experix]

I cancelled vector through the city screen. It probably went all crazy, I wasn't even able to end my turn.

Today I came back to the game, the vector wasn't cancelled, but I cancelled it without problems.

New Info: I now cancelled the vector, and the production now shows as "undefined/2" for both. There is definitely a bug - it should not say "undefined" should it?

I still have not moved (there is still some time left anyway, so I just delay the game so that you can take a look).
GameName=IcyHeart, GameId=35766, see e.g. Captial of Teal for the buggy display.

Could it be that you selected another unit to produce first and then switched back to your 2 turn units (which then would reset the buildtime), or possibly accidently stopped the production and then started it again?

Well, I cannot rule out such a mistake for sure, but being an old Warlords player, I am well aware of this pitfall and usually take great care with production. Furthermore, the "undefined/2" display that I not got by just cancelling the vector from within the city production screen, indicates that something is amiss.

Chazar,
in the second attempt to cancel that vector, I also had undefined/3 (I see this "undefined" quite usually recently and I ignore it). After I ended my turn and got back in observation mode, I saw 2/3 and the elemental was really prepared in the next turn.

I have been able to replicate some of your issues.
It seemed to be a combination of first using the normal city-screen, and then doing some updates in the city-overview screen that could trigger this.
I have applied a fix now which at least fixed the issues I was able to reproduce.

Let me know if you see any more of these issues please, with some luck this was the fix for them all

Thanks, but my game is still paused. What is the status then?

I don't care much about the lost production in this particular game, and I will keep an eye open whether or not production/vectoring work as intended.

Oups, game has been unpaused again.

The production bug remains:

In game 35766 Synresludge and Xyanwood where both at 1/2 production at the beginning of this turn, both having no vector set.

The city Cellin received 4 units, 3 of them where 0/2 this turn (i.e. 2T units had just been sent on their way).

In order to maximize vectoring, I cancelled all 0/2 vectoring, and then from the city menu I set the vectoring from Xyanwood to Cellin. Later I clicked the City Overview and saw that Xyanwood now has 0/2 production instead of 1/2. I then went to the city info itself and it is still 0/2, i.e. I lost another production turn.

I ceased to do anything else, and I have not clicked end turn since.

PS: I could try and reproduce the error with the production from Synresludge while an admin watches, if that helps, but I guess you can do that on your own?

Ahh, I found another bug there regarding the buildtime. If you canceled/restarted some unit production in the mainscreen, and then switched to do updates in the overview screen this new buildtime of 0 could sometimes get transfered.
Fixed now thanks to your nice report

Let me know if the game is important, then I could restore your lost buildtime.

Thanks!

Thanks for fixing the bug!

I never saw this bug before, despite always doing this swapping of vectoring. I always ensure that bridge-head-cities always get 4 units sent towards them per turn.

Well the game is important, since it is a ladder game against one of my own team mates, but it's okay, I think I can manage that game without those 3 production turns, even though they are of my best unit types. If I don't win, then I have at least an excuse for it.
