Re: Game Stuck- Need Advice
Guy, have you tried running it offline and just letting it go? I know with SE4 there were a few times when we had games that appeard locked and they just needed a very long time to processes, hours even. When I tried your game I gave up after abotu 15 minutes. Unfortunatly I can't leave my computer tied up for hours or I'd test it myself. Maybe over the weekend if you haven't been able to try it.
Also, you might try haveing everybody do their turns but purposely doing nothing. Giving no orders to ships and planets to see if that gets past the turn. I also tried running the turn offline with no .plr files and it hung. But if it's something the players are doing it could easily be something the AI is doing in your absence as well.

Well I might try it later this evening, but unfortunately I'm at work right now.

Re: Game Stuck- Need Advice
I even tried everyone doing a turn with no ship movement and it still freezes at the same spot in the progress bar...

Re: Game Stuck- Need Advice
My advise is simple. Go buy a gun. Come home and shoot your computer. Then call Dell and order a new one. Problem solved.

Or, you could send the savegame to Malfador.

Atrocities, that's the most optimistic thing I've ever heard you say.
