Military Starbase Max-out crash

I have been having a problem where; when I max out my Military starbase, so I can't make any more modules, it invariably crashes to desktop with a little error window popping up for a brief second before it too disappears.

Are you adding the upgrades one at a time or dumping 70 construction modules in all at once?

Latter usually.  It shoudn't have been a problem though.

 

Plus I am getting the same issue for just making a regular starbase.  I max it out (Miner starbase), then end turn and the game crashes.  This though I think is a seperate issue as it seems to be a case of data overload.

I think it's related to a similar issue that you can run into requesting too many ships from a shipyard (usually via Request Constructor on one or more starbases pulling from the same yard).  I think if an entity such as a shipyard or starbase has too may operations pending at one time, it causes a crash like you've described.  In my experience, the specific number that triggers the crash is more than 30 and less than or equal to 40.

I took your advise.  Not ONE crash.  Not one.  I am both over the moon and furious.
