I think sometimes when you accidently upgrade shade then cancel it, it sometimes prevents you from getting a shade hive. Happen to me a few times and someone else recently. We had 4 hives and 2 of them couldnt go shade. I need to rebind minimap to something else

    I've had this bug too. It's best to hit Q, C instead of C when checking map. It also prevents the accidental spur/fade egg.

    At first glance I almost thought the title read "Bugs cant make hive go shade" I feel some what disappointed.

    Nope I'd like to think this is working as intended.

    What you'd like to think and what reality is aren't automatically the same thing.

    This bug exists. It's not shade-specific. It definitely sounds related to canceling upgrades. My guess would be it might be related to canceling a hive right before it completes, and the game thinks the hive is completed (and thus that type of hive isn't available to upgrade again; even though you cancelled it.)

    I inherited commander from a newbie commander one game where this bug was happening. I think it affected our Shift hive -- so we had all three hives and two were upgraded (Shade/Crag) but Pipeline Hive wasn't upgraded (text says "Hive" not "Shift Hive") and the button to upgrade to Shift was not present (and Shift structures unavailable.) Happened in another game with a non-newbie commander too.

    Confirmed, gets really annoying and can cost you the game.
