pollution bug?

I think I just rediscovered why I keep giving up on call to power 2;
I can never get pollution to stay on for more than a turn at a time.

I got a map, edited a scenario onto it, saved it with pollution on,
and now every so often pollution is turned off for no apparent reason. Sometimes it doesn't stay on for more than 1 turn in a row.

The game kinda sucks without it. Is there a fix?

Thanks!

Every time you open the map editor, it (for some unknown reason) sets Pollution to OFF. You have to check the button every time you use the map editor to keep it on.

You can enable the write protection of the userprofile.txt. That doesn't avoid the problem with the cheat editor but it keeps you from starting a game without pollution.

Amazing!
I'd never heard of this before

searched the forum archive too, in case it was an FAQ.

Now I know, forewarned is forearmed!
