So it calls the script mentioned by jub above, but the script can't execute git (since it's a normal command prompt and not the git bash).
In order to tell it where to look for git there is an environment variable called PATH, which contains a list of paths (hence the name
) in which to look for executable files. You need to add [git-install-dir]\bin to that list (usually the path is C:\Program Files\Git\bin). To do that you need to open system properties dialog. How to do that depends on your windows version, usually you just need to right-click "My Computer" and select properties, on vista/win7 you need to click on 'Advanced system settings' (or similar) in the window that opens. There find the Tab called 'Advanced' which has a button called 'Environment Variables' at the bottom. Clicking it opens the dialog you need, find the PATH entry in the lower list (under 'Systems Variables'), click Edit and append the path mentioned above (or whatever it is called on your system), separating from previous entries with a semi-colon (also don't use quotes even if the path contains spaces). Click OK on all dialogs, if VS is open close it and restart it (otherwise it won't be informed of the changed variables) and recompile, now your version number should come out correctly. After the g it should now display the same sequence that you also see in the double-brackets when you're in a git bash in the Cargodist folder.
Since that was apparent right from the start I have made my own screenshots and I have included the latest autosave. (No recent normal save available, played few hours without saving 
)
- maybe this patch sees a little further development, I think this really is a small contribution which would have a BIG impact on gameplay, especially with cargodist
