Strange stuff

So I was playing and the Korx just surrendered to me. That included a class 30 planet they had. So now I have it and its full of research and manufacturing plants. So I move my slider to 90% research to crank out some tech.

1) I hit the turn button a few times and liook at my money, it said -2987429822...(off the screen) but i had about 6000 last time i checked and made about 800 a turn.

2) Every time I click turn, the path of research I am on gets completed. ( i went from Mass Drivers III to Black Hole gun in 1 turn. I managed to win a tech victory two turns later.

3) All ship building was halted at this time as well.

4) Whatever building was in production on a planet was finished in 1 turn.

I left out many details, because i Saved the game and will send it to Stardock if they want it, just not sure which email and subject line i should use.

Sounds like they've got another pointer without a NULL somewhere . Probably an isolated instance and hard to say if it is something that is saved. I know there have been a few other bugs of this type that simply loading the previous save corrected. They don't put the entire game state in the file but rather recompute some stuff from the load. Would be curious to know if this is the case with this problem
