    I have not played PA: TITANS for a week and in that time I have updated my drivers, now planets are appearing with a green layer over them as if I have issued a global build order. Re-installing the game does not work and a Dx.diag was requested, so here it is. Thanks for any help.

    Thank you for posting your DxDiag report. It looks like there is an updated driver available for your Intel graphics card. Please go to the manufacturer's website to download and install the latest driver here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx

    It looks like @rodchev had 2 graphics cards; an AMD Radeon R7 M260 and an Intel(R) HD Graphics 5500. Do you know if you have another graphics card as well?

    Hi, thanks for replying. I have tried to update my driver, but the utility informs me that it is all up to date.

    Your DxDiag shows your last Intel driver dated 10/9/2014 for version 10.18.10.3960. The latest one should be dated around 9/28/2015 for version 15.40.7.4279.
    Sometimes computers will say the drivers are up to date when they're really not. Please go to the manufacturer's website directly to download and install the latest driver here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx

    Thanks for the answer.
    I tried to reinstall PA:TITANS to solve the problem, but it is still there.

    To be more precise, i describe my problem:
    The planets looks normal, as long as, i don't use the shift+left mouse drag-feature to build several metal-extractors. Normaly, as a visual feesback, a green transparent circle appears. Now the green tranparent cricle appears, but simultaneously the whole planet gets a green transparent layer.

    But to answer your question:
    as far as i know, i have only one graphic card (the AMD R9 380), but i attached the output file from dxdiag, so you might have look (i'm not so good in understanding the dxdiag-output).

    For me it looks like, that the AMD driver is the problem.
    Why?
    Because i installed a new graphic card (old : AMD R9 270 -> new : AMD R9 380) and made an update of the graphic card driver.
    With the old driver/old graphic card i didn't have the problem, it started after the graphic card/driver update.

    So it seems, i have to wait until AMD release a new driver or install the old one.

    Next week i have more time to mess around with my graphic card drivers, so i keep the new, because
    i can still play PA:TITANS and this is the only thing that matters :)

    PS:
    I'm from Germany, so excuse my odd english

    PPS:
    By the way, with the (surprising) TITAN-Update the game makes a lot more fun!
    Great job!
