Crash to Desktop Bug

Post by Omnius »

I'm playing a new game in version 1.2.2.0 and have noticed a crash to desktop problem. I'm in the early part of the game and only have a colony and about half a dozen ships I built. I am accessing the colony screen and clicked on the Resources line to bring up that additional page to the side. I was trying to change things under the Maintain column to set minimum levels but since the game is paused I can't so that since all numbers are -1 and the sliders don't work. I had the game CTD several times however I could run clock for a few days to unlock the Maintain sliders or input numbers directly and have gotten the game moving forward without dreaded CTD's. Looks like a problem when game is paused and just reloaded before running any clock.

Is this a reproducible crash from a save? If so, please upload your save?

Regardless, please upload your SessionLog and any crash logs you see in the Logs folder.

Do you know if Windows Event Viewer generated any crash reports? If you don't see crashdumps in the Logs folder, please look into Windows Event Viewer -> click on Applications in the left column under the Windows Logs tab -> see if there are any entries for .NETRuntime around the same time as your crashes -> paste what you find here.
