View Full Version : New (or old?) CTD during AI move (post 0.7.3a)

Playing Rome, one of those CTDs during AI movement occured. I did the usual, assuming control of the faction causing it (ptolemaioi) and tried everything, but it always crashed. I even disbanded EVERY single unit and destroyed EVERY single building, and still it CTD'd while ending turn.

After a lot of trial and error I finally found out what was causing it: Salamis was building a Penteconterai, which would be finished at the turn's end and causing the CTD. Unless this was caused by applying the 0.73a hotfix, since the game was started with 0.73 (altough I played many turns after hotfix), then I think there's a problem with this unit causing a CTD.

EDIT 2: altough this fixed the CTD, I had a new CTD with Ptolemaioi after 2 turns, this time with a Kerkuroi Fleet being built also at Salamis. This time I destroyed the naval yard, hoping to avoid new CTDs. Something's definitely wrong with Ptolemaioi ships... (or maybe just in Salamis?)

I had a similar ctd from ptolemaioi while playing as Pontus. I couldn't find the problem but I'll go and check whether it is the same as the one above.

A big thanks for taking the time to figure this out. That sort of thing is going above and beyond the call of duty! We will definitely take a look at it and see if we can do something about it or replicate it. :2thumbsup:

I started a new thread just for this. The problem is that there is no port for the ships to spawn, hence the ctd.

lol, you're welcome, but the main reason I went to all the trouble is that I REALLY want to play that game, so close to a Triumph vs Carthage :laugh4:
