I reloaded the game and again, lots of research wasn't remembered. The Titan base only had one tile researched yet four military labs were present. The progress of the Titan ship in it's hanger was at about 20% when the game was saved. That is what is showing but the building of the Titan as not continuing. I had to research the remaining three tiles before the Titan starting being built again.
I continued on with the game for a little while but had decided to reload the game since my attack plans didn't payoff as expected. So, as the game was being played, I selected "Menu" selected "Load Game", choose my game "running game 1" and then when I clicked on "Load", crash, frozen in time. Went back to windows, dialog showed error being reported, shutdown clean.
