However, in my current game just completed turn with auto save enabled and it's still sticking on the screen.
Also with the extra build ques there is starting to be a very easily noticed lag when adding/removing buildings/ships from build ques on extreme game settings. Not much is being acknowledged with this and I hope is being looked at as this is something that was there in 1.61, however, has gotten a lot worse with the extra ques.
