I have a saved game file with a bug in it. I was playing a race I created, but I don't this is the same bug that has mentioned along that line. The first indication there was a problem is when I tried to invade a planet and could not because a third party's fleet was stuck in the planet. Then, after a few turns, when I press the turn button the game hangs and never completes the turn.
Hated to lose this one as I was just about to put the hammer down after several hours of preparation.
I have the file if you guys are interested. Email me at ahnog@yahoo.com with instructions on where to send it.
