Game crash always on the same turn

... on turn 189.

from Stardock.net Forums

I can't see any error message. I've already finished a couple of games without problem. but on this one, the game just ends on turn 189 without apparent reason.

on the file debug.err I can read that at the end :

Debug Message:  OnStartTurn
Debug Message:  SetAITrigger
Debug Message:  EndTurn 188
Debug Message:  ProcessQueuedResearch pPlayerID 9
Debug Message:  DoActionAwardResearchAmount owner 13 amount 25000 tick 10934
Debug Message:  ProcessQueuedResearch pPlayerID 23

The file sdcrash.log hasn't any readable information.

Here is the save of the last turn before crash : https://www.dropbox.com/s/gujky23kgyiv8tj/skata.GC3Crusade?dl=0

Interesting, I have a game that crashes at turn 183/184. Last thing I see is "starting new turn" in the corner and then CTD. Always in exactly same way.

I already reported it on steam forum and provided savegame, hopefully this is game bug that might get fix not my bad modding :)

The debug makes me think a race and the tech tree do not play nice.

In case you haven't been paying attention to other post there are other reports of crashes and devs are looking into it.

Are you using dread lord event ?

I don't know what it is, it was only my third game. The only custom parameters for this game was : custom civilization I created, AI civilizations from the workshop picked up randomly (startreck, etc.), and no technology exchanges.

We are testing a fix for this now.

Questions on the fix, will we still need to replay any games that have the issue (meaning: it's bad save data)? Also, does the fix solve the corrupted files that occur when this happens? I've "solved" that by making the files read only, but it's still odd that it's corrupting game data.

Hey folks,

Can you see if the opt-in addresses the problem for you? This fix does not require a new game.
