k game runs fine rarely ever crashes however....
Every once in a while a save game will be corrupted. This occurs in two circumstances: 1- it crashes while saving or 2- it crashes while loading a game which appeared to save correctly. Sometimes the autosave will be corrupted, but it will never crash while you save, just when you load it. I've tested this by rapidly loading and saving the game repeatedly and it crashes whiles saving on the 5th or 6th save.
ALSO-
1- Sometimes when I load a save game it interprets my ships as having no range so they get stuck in space for a turn until the game remembers the real range (anywhere I try to move I get the powered down..hope no ones afraid of the dark message).
2- When building ships theres a wierd bug where if Im upgrading a ship and I take a component out and try to take another component out in sequence the game will put the other component back in. This forces me to take components out and replace them manually.
LASTLY
This isnt a bug but just something that has been bugging me (if you excuse the pun). In the larger maps if you play with a diplomatic/neutral civilization with plenty of other civs the game basically gets stalemated. No one EVER forms alliances and no one has EVER declared war on me. All the wars Ive seen not a single planet has been taken from one AI player by another (only minor races and still I've only seen two of there planets taken). My interpretation is that the AI interprets any real dedicated warfighting as too risky as there are too damn many civilizations all around you that can pounce if your vulnerable so it just plays it safe and quickly settles its wars. ( all games everyone else was playing as intelligent, btw). Again not a bug but these games have become boring in the stretch unless I decide to do the endgame genocide and just declare war and annihilate civilizations one by one (which is something Ive read that some wanted to avoid in the development team).
Oh yeah and the siege campagin mission is just heinous.
Its still a great game, these bugs arent really show stoppers
