We already do basically the same thing in the config.php.

We have found that on servers where this problem occures it is usually caused by magic quotes because when turned off the problem goes away.

Did ya try this in a .htaccess file?

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off

If not maybe you have to create a local php.ini file

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

Check with your hosting company to see how they allow php flag access.

I was playing around the settings.php to see where the wrong values come from.

The Value "prate" of Colonists in class_modules_commodities is set to 0. As this value is needed by all the other Variables (Col's needed to produce 1 ore) this should not be 0 by default i guess.

Ok i found it. The Value is supposed to be 0.005. But the Database Field prate is set to double(32,2), which only holds values down to 0.01.

Obviously this is a MAJOR Bug that every new installation will encounter !!!!!!!

You must fix the line
`prate` double(32,2) NOT NULL default '0.00',
to (at least)
`prate` double(32,4) NOT NULL default '0.00',

in the file create_game/scheme/class_modules_commodities.inc !!

I guess you didn't notice because you kept updating your old game, without a real new installation...

Actually knowing PJ, he installs on multiple servers before a release and runs the install. I am certain its probably a distro difference that caused the issues or there wouldn't be any .30 servers running reliably right now.

Thanks for the info on it... its hard to fix stuff when it doesn't break for us.

Damn, he is right I downloaded the 0.30_3 and it had the wrong commodities database file. :p Wonder why no one mentioned this earlier.
