Author Topic:   New Game Loads Unit Designs Bug

If you load a game, then "Cancel" the "Load Portrait" screen immediately following the load filename dialog, then start a new game, all of the units available in the loaded game become available in the new game. Fungicidal terraformers & Needlejets are sure helpful on Turn 1, not to mention Chaos Cruisers!
As a programmer I'd have to say it looks like you've initialized your "new game" variables too soon, but who knows? What I do know is the bug is there ... so go fix it!

I had this happen to me as well but the discrepancy wasnt as major just sea colonizes, and units that are 2-2
