When I have some long multiplayer games, the autosave gets corrupted and we crash. Then we we load up the previous autosave it runs fine up until the next autosave again and it crashes again.
The game I just had it happen on it happened around 11 or 12.
It was a 4 player game, one player had already been eliminated.
It's a shame too, cause I'd had half the galaxy and the other 2 players were bickering with eachother not realizing that I was sitting back and watching them waste resources on attacking eachother. And I'd been using Deliverance Cannons to covertly flip planets. Heck, they kept pouring money into putting Bounty on eachother!
Great game guys. Just find and squish this bug! I'll do anything to help.
Edit: tally count is 4 crashes while trying to play today. I have Dump files... how would you like me to send them for review?
