Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
When I try to send a rover over a Passage Ramp it turns around and circumnavigates the dome rather than cross the ramp. I can "force" the Commander and Dozer over--if I stop them on the ramp and then basically run them off the side (see attached.) From the pictured position I can then click further down the ramp and they will cross. The Transport will not even do this.

Can you replicate the issue?
Yes, I reload the save file and can replicate on any ramp. The Save File is ~35M so I can't attach it

This is only in this one save, is that right ?

If you delete the transport and build a new one, does it work properly?

 

[FrankASmith]

OK, deleted all my vehicles and rebuilt them. Problem persists. None of my vehicles will choose that passage ramp. So I built a bunch of domes and ramps to test what worked. It's only ramps that go in the 4 o'clock to 10 o'clock direction the rest work fine. See attached screen shot. If a rover is at "A" and I click on "B" the rover goes around the dome as if the ramp didn't exist. From point "B" to "A" is the same. I can "force" a rover over the ramp as in my OP.

Interestingly, if a rover is at "C" and I click on "D" the rover acts normally in both directions (D-C) but if I click on "E" it will go all the way around. If the rover is at "D" and I click on "E" it will not cross over. I replicated all of this with a save from 50 Sols ago with the same result. Obviously not a game breaker but irritating. I would be interested to hear if you could replicate the problem on another system since it might be an artifact of my video card. I'm not sure how I would get a 35meg save file to you.

I have never heard of that problem before, how interesting. Can you duplicate this in a new test colony you start?

You could upload the save to Dropbox or a similar file hosting service. Note as you have a low number of posts here you can't post links (that's an anti-spam measure here) so you'd have to spell out or disguise the URL

 

[FrankASmith]

I assume this does not happen on your copy of the game, correct? I will try on a new game.

 

[AndrewT]

I've certainly never noticed it myself, although I can't be 100% sure I would have noticed it.

If you get it in a new colony I'll happily test that here.

I had problems with similar behavior with a passage hub not connecting to the Domes. Because I had used the terrain editor and it had changed the height/level of the ground so the connection could not be made at all and this also happens with many other buildings too
