Program hangs up during air combat

[Shkval25]

I've been having a problem from time-to-time in which something related to air combat triggers a message-less error, at which point the game becomes nonresponsive. The game doesn't actually crash until I click somewhere and get a "This program is not responding" message.

This only occurs when aircraft are attacking ships. If I reload a save from during the battle then the problem reoccurs but not necessarily at the exact same time. Reloading the autosave and selecting the battle redo option fixes the problem until the next occurrence hours of gameplay later.

Hey thanks for the report and the save! We will investigate this issue.

We're having trouble tracking down this issue as it seems not all the ship design files have made it into the save file. Could you please reupload your save and make sure that all the ship design files relevant to the game are in the save directory?

It took a few tries to get it to fit within the upload limit but here it is.

Many thanks!

Thanks - am having our NWS Beta Team test this out to see what the issue is.

@Shkval25 - We have tested the save game, but have been unable to replicate the issue.

If you see this again we would be glad to look at that game save and hopefully catch the issue in action.

Thanks.

I did change a couple values in the BNat1900 file. Could that be relevant to replication?

It very well could be...if you can, please try it with the stock game - if you have the same issue let us know.

Thanks.
