No worries David and it isn't what I did. Machine was a Dell dimension T600, with a subsequent powerleap cpu upgrade to 1.4 ghz. Initially installed with 98 and upgraded to 98 SE and always up to date with security etc patches. BIOS couldn't take upgrade to XP so was never done. I was also very, very careful with drivers as I used the machine for voice recognition software due to a problem with my wrists. If you want to take off-line [email protected].

[quote]So I don't know for certain if the bug is caused by sheer quantity of ships or the quantity of different kinds of ships. [/quote] G'day Cari, some observations that might assist. It occurs, for me, whenever a new type of ship was built/encountered rather than lots of ships of a few types. So I had it happen after a new type of ship was discovered in an anomoly that I hadn't buily before. (It may occur for many ships in quantity but I don't play that way.)

Other than complaint about bug still existing on various bug threads, the other information was in private communications with Cari. My last offer re debugging was sent to Cari in November, and was never responded to. I have now reduced my actual time playing in total and in individual sessions and changed galaxy size/style to not encounter the bug. (Note difference in size & submission rate since early December.) Stardock's response (to date) has been totally consistent.

[quote]so the chances of it being fixed in my opinion are about zip especially since it can be dealt with by a quick save and reload[/quote] Not true. Save, shutdown/restart/reload for me, and if I am not fast enough CTD!
