Never having an election again?

Error in something

from GalCiv2 Forums
I need to know where to email a savegame file and a screenshot of a strange bug I have encountered. I was playing a conquest game but using only influence to win (I like LOOOONG games) and I am have encountered a bug that seems to have my next election 4294967284 weeks away. I currently have a federation and it is presently May 8th, 2231.

You could just post a debug.err, quicker and easier.

This was reported once before, I think. Someone said that if you hit ESC during an election, it would dismiss the window without a vote and the game would never return to another vote. The solution, I think is to go back to a previous saved game before the last election.

I have fixed the problem where if you hit ESC at the election screen, it prevents the election. Hitting ESC will no longer close that window. You have to go through the election.

This will be available in the next update.

Thanks Codecritter. I found out another bad side effect of having no more elections: You had a hard time declaring war. The vote would come up and happen, but you still couldn't attack anything unless you saved and reloaded the game.
