Game executable does not close when game is quit on occasion.

This has been an issue with previous Stardock games as well, particularly the Elemental series, but this is the first time I've seen it with GalCiv3.

 

You close the program, the executable does not close, Steam records it as gametime and shows you as playing it for hours and hours.

 

Seems to occur more after longer play sessions.

It has occured to me too. But game actually crashes. On several occasions when I want to exit to main menu and abandon the game I play it just exits to desktop. If you try to restart it doesn't because Steam reports as synchronizing with cloud or something. I have to shut down Steam also, then I can start the GC3 again.

It might be from heavy load of insane map sizes I play.

Thank you for the report. It is on the list to fix that the game exits in a more clean fashion.

This is something that is common across every Stardock game I've played on Steam, and I'm pretty sure it's been a problem as far back as GalCiv2.
