Beta 3 bug - Colony List Screen Crash

December 3, 2007 9:36 AM from

I keep getting crashes when I go to the colony list screen and attempt to purchase a social improvement (usually diplomatic translators) by clicking on the improvement. Seems repeatable. Sorry I can't send the files (my home online access isn't working right now). Maybe someone else can confirm this bug? Thanks.

Please install 'SmartException' from the free stuff section in Stardock Central. Make sure that SE is running and start your game as normal. If the game crashes it will generate an exception report that can be emailed to [email protected].

Include in/attached to the email:
+ A description of what you were doing at the time.
+ How to reproduce the crash (if possible).
+ A zipped save (if applicable).
+ The appropriate debug.err file.

The devs cannot help if you do not provide these details!

I had sent a SmartException in on this and got a response that this CTD should be fixed in the next patch.
