Mod broken

[arthurtuxedo]

I've spent the past month or so, off and on, trying to figure out why my mod doesn't work, and I can't do it. Here's what happens: The game will play normally for anywhere from 6-90 turns, then will hang on the turn of one of the AI players. I have tried taking over their empire, and everything appears normal. I clean out their designs and research and production queues to make sure they are not doing anything odd, but when I click the end turn button, it hangs. I've tried temporarily un-doing or making unavialable to the AI the major stuff my mod changes to see if that fixes the problem, but it never does. I'm all out of ideas. Has anyone had this happen before?

post your mod and the game turn file.

And we will see if we can find the problem.

Here it is. Savegame's included. Not sure how it's 5.9 mb. I used maximum compression, and I deleted almost as many components as I added (let's face it, some of them are just dumb). Oh well, happy hunting, and thanks.

Any luck yet?

Checking a little now.

Right off:
-your Romulan_mini_frigate is *far* too big. It's over a meg in size, and way above the resolution SE4 uses. THAT could be the problem right there. FYI, most of the extra area is white space..

EDIT: loaded it up, and I can't SEE anything..

EDIT 2: OK, never mind. You added a racial trait. Incidently, this means all those .emps in your zip file are utterly and completely useless.

EDIT 3: Hmm. Played it up to turn 100. Other than it being a little slow, and no colonies, didn't see any problems.

Hmm, I'll just delete the romulan folder, then. I think I just copied it from either Devnullcus mod or Zippy mod or something. Not sure why the AI wouldn't build colonies, though. Thanks for the help.
