Yes good catch, I have the same issue now
That's an update issue in Star menu.
Quickest workaround:
Click the ascending/descending triangle 1-2 times.
Or use mouse-scroll while hovering over Star menu.
you say that it gonna stay this way?
i have other things to do than clicking on the comp all day
i usually send my geos and just look into comp room if they ready
When I open the star menu the progress bars are fine - so you are saying that leaving the window open makes them not change? I'm not too surprised about that window not being dynamic. Unfortunately I've never watched it that way before so I can't confirm it started after the last update but if this is your normal way of monitoring then I'll take your word for it.
I rely on the sounds when I'm doing something else but as we all know the geologists sometimes don't 'report in'.
Its definitely only been happening since the last update.
Since BB introduced the pin menu, you have been able to pin the Star Window open and send each geos, scouts, explorers in turn without having to select the Star each time. For me this saves dozens of clicks during morning and evening times when I am in a rush and usually do all my routine maintenance jobs as a first activity after logging in.
This is why its important to know what fixes and patches BB apply during maintenance. They often break things that bear no apparent relation to the fixes / updates that are listed in the change log.
I have the same problem. I have the star menu pinned for adventures and send my generals from there. Since the last update it is not only geo guys and explorers but my generals who don't update any more. Hoping this gets fixed soon as it was a feature that I loved. .
mine sometimes don't grey out, but they most certainly do leave on their travels. I just close star and re-pin it and they've gone searching/scouting. A minor inconvenience.
btw I use Chrome and win 10.
Yeah basically the star menu doesn't automatically refreshes itself when you keep it open, this happened ever since the new update before that it worked fine
Scrolling, switching tabs or closing and opening the star menu all forces it to refresh again, but its not a great solution, you can easily lose track if you send out 8 geo's/explorers and look away if only for a second since they don't grey out
I noticed same thing so posted it Here originally and was told to do the move up and down arrow it sorted it out for me but is definitely new since the last game update they hadQuote:

Or you could notice the shuffle sorting bug has been fixed by this..Quote:
