This kind of crash appeared quite a few times in the forum, already. Looks like a threading synchronization problem. One of the most difficult kind to fix if you cannot reproduce them.

I do not know if this is related to the crash or another issue but I noticed that a couple of my planets have two space ports.

Ketaros 2 has a small and large port of my empires design.

Zicolai Junction 1 has a small port of my empires design and a large port of another empires design.
