Red Book button not working for workers. ANSWERED

The ingame red book info just comes up blank for workers and elite workers. I have checked in several of my games. The out of game info in Help, Units works fine, just seems to be a problem for checking individual workers in game, I think this was since the road building changes a few weeks ago.

EDIT - all is resolved now.

The same thing has also happened with me multiple times.

What game version? Public, dev?
On which type of game? Campaign, skirmish, multiplier, all of them?
On phone, tablet, emulator?

I am asking for details, because I have to say most IT thing, that could be ... it works on my system without issues.

Apologies, to be more specific

It's on public version, on my phone.
Noticed in MP games, I've also tested in skirmish - just comes up a blank box for me.
Same with Elite Workers, same with allied or enemy workers.

As I say, I think it is from since the road building changes came in. Reconfirmed in-game in real-time as I typed this on my second device.

(Was that better for efficiency of communication Endru? That's pretty much how I talk to my boss in real life :lol: )

Not informative enough.
Use more formal language - I recommend learning law.
Eventually scientific dialect.
As a bonus some work opportunities can open.
At least where you can speak with your superior (and maybe colleagues) using a little more refined tongue.

Jokes aside - I tried public version on emulator and indeed it happens (but randomly and inconsistently), but I also loose TC properties window right after loosing worker window - could you check if it's like that too?

I checked and it also happens on dev version.
But I only perceive it on bluestacks (bs 5.0.100 to be exact) and I read it emulates Android 7.1.2 - Nougat.

And AoS was rebuild on newer android sdk, so maybe that changed something.
Or what I see is unrelated.

What android version do you use, @phoenixffyrnig ?

Well if you have problems with that, I'd better not tell you how my boss talks to back to me! :P

Oh dear, I think I'm drowning in a technology conversation again... I'm on an oldish phone running Android 6.0.1, I'm in the South of France, and I had chips beans and feta cheese for dinner. That's pretty much everything useful I can tell you.

I checked changing language too (although for polish).
It seems to have no influence.

What I could experience:
- it always opens on android 10
- it's sometimes blank for some units on android 7 (I recalled it happening on android 6 way before for other units)
- it seems to be only happening for some units (I found TC and confirmed worker)

Information yet to be found:
- cause of blank propsheet to show only for some units
- any possible fix

It may be related to html template elements loading, so that units with more things to load would have this happening.

For now I can only give advice - if this screen is needed for something - try few more times to close, open again.
Sometimes it opened.

I remember this similar report from a player named hellofriends. But, when i asked stratego, he replied it was the webview issue.here . But this sound much familiar. The report was, he never was able to open help, overview, init stat, upgrades-more.etc. he said all he could see is the blank background scroll image. @Aral_Yaren please confirm since you might know him more than me

The player by IGN: Hellofriends is still complaining that he cannot open: help menu (including unit statistic and game preview) and classements (record on win, gems, and so forth). The last time (around 9 days before) we talked, he'd mail dev.

Also - it runs well in my device (4.44). The only one (I'm fine actually so no stressing) is that I cannot open classement since a few months ago, if that might come to considerations.

Well, we are lucky the dev is working on unity deployment.
Maybe it'll remove all those problems.

i think we (Endru+me) have a faint hope to have these fixed.
