AI Turn Never Ends: Stuck on "Thinking"

Post by monkspider »

Hey guys,

I have had An AI turn that never ends, and even upon reloading, gets stuck at the very end of the "thinking" phase. I have uploaded the save game where this occurs.

Hi monkspider, thanks for the report.

We've fixed this issue now, and the fix will be coming out in a patch asap.

Also had this problem during the Coral Sea US scenario at Turn 13.

Tried my save on another PC with the same problem.

I had to turn off the AI to get past the scenario (which of course meant it was too easy to complete).

Hopefully the patch will fix this too, and if it's due soon I might stop playing until then.

Have you tried this hotfix?
viewtopic.php?f=372&t=64304

If that doesn't help please post the output_log.txt and a savegame so we can repeat the issue.

Thanks for the fast response.

I've just tried the Hotfix (had some problems with the install as the default folder is not where I installed the game).

I verified that the version was 1.60 and that the new option to disable the AI spinner was there (which I turned off).

The problem still exists unfortunately.

Thanks for the report, it's helped us resolve the problem, and a fix will certainly be included in this week's upcoming patch.

As mentioned, the hotfix will not resolve problems with victory conditions or triggers with ongoing games, but it should solve the AI freeze issue, even in existing saves.

stvwhite, thanks for the savegame, I've reproduced and fixed the error. The fix will come with the patch.

MikeAP, I couldn't reproduce the error, perhaps because I've already fixed this one. Could you post an output_log.txt from when the error occurs, and I can confirm whether it is an issue I have already fixed.

Thanks both for your help, and hopefully we'll get these fixes to you asap.
