From within the game, File-Import-TextReports doesn't give me any joy and now that you've brought my attention to it, It's uninteresting coming from the game list as well. Once I specify the text file there's no message and no change to map data at all.
I'll send you the specific data in a PM.

Text import broken?

A couple of us are trying to import world data from TXT file and aren't having any luck with it. Nothing updates. Is this known to be broken?

That's better, but now it's looking for gdiplus.dll :-)

New installation problems

I've installed RSW onto a newly formatted/clean W2k machine with all its updates installed. The install completed without error, but when RSW tries to start it indicates that MSVCP71.dll cannot be located. Indeed, the DLL is not on the computer anywhere.

Ah.... so by phase sequence, as long as you're over a planet that's loadable, you can unload, transfer, and reload...

Other Projections are bad too

Projected Metal on fleets being transferred ships is also wrong. I'm transferring fleets with loaded metal and the projected metal is zero even with projected ships and projected destination being proper. All ships in the donor fleet HAVE metal and aren't unloading, so there's no chance that there's...

Usable Industry

Projected Usable Industry doesn't seem to update properly. In enormous7a I'm dropping 6 metal on my homeworld. The world has 2 mines so metal is 2(8). Usable Industry is somehow at 2(0). The 2(0) should naturally be 2(2) but I would expect 2(10) factoring in the metal drops.

It doesn't seem like server communication is necessary. You can parse prior turns that are already resident on the client for Jihad orders, right? Along those lines, I'm not seeing where the order is actually stored in the UI. Aside from redeclaring each turn, I'd have to parse prior orders to figur...

Projected Score

Projected score seems to forget who your current Jihad target is unless you redeclare it on a turn. It assumed to be docking me points for shots fired against my enemy on the prior turn until I readded the Jihad code.

Eliminated players?

Does the game continue to wait for players that are eliminated? In heroin3d there seem to be two players that have been purged and it seems like they're still waited for before turn advances.
