Launch Warning

the game you are playing was started before or after you installed the latest patch???

Actually, if you keep clicking "no" or hold down the "n" key on your keyboard, the message will eventually go away. This bug comes about probably when the AI tries to launch mines or sats from a cloaked ship.

I started the game several weeks before the new patch was installed.

THAT could be the source of the problem. Try starting a fresh new game with this patch.

Followup to previous post, now during combat
the window 'Launch Warning' appeared.

I'm in the 400 plus turn when this happened.
Yes, I started the game several weeks before I installed the new patch. This game has been going on for 6 weeks in a 250 system quadrant with 19 computer opponents, so you can see why starting over would be a great disappointment.

Are there any solutions?

You could try copying your save game file, deleting SE4, reinstalling and patching up to the level it was at when you started the game.

No guarantees, I don't know if it might have saved something which will cause problems.

Did just that and I still had this problem.
