Problems Running

from GalCiv2 Forums

Well, let me explain my system.  It is nearly powerful enough to run Oblivion at max settings and yet from some time ago, includng SINS, I noticed that my water -cooled system will occassionally crash.  Currently, I can play perhaps 30 turns with twilight, but then I will reach a turn in which nothing happens.  I know a solution to this, but it is a pain in the ass.  The solution is to immediately save the game, quit and then re-load.  What am I doing wrong??

I haven't played in a while, but this sounds familiar...

If I understand correctly, GalCiv isn't giving you an error, it's not just doing anything after you press the turn button.

If that's the case, it's most likely the result of a ship that's waiting for an order from you.  Pressing the Tab key will take you to the ship that's wiating for your order and pressing the Space Bar will skip that ship and proceed with the turn.  Keep in mind, it's possible to have hundreds of ships waiting in such fashion so you may have to Tab/Space Bar more than once.

There's also an option in one of the menus regarding auto-pilot ships and skipping them at the end of a turn that you may want to check out.
