Bug in 1.84 Gold?

[Cyrien]

Just started a new game using Fyron Quadrant Mod and TDM. Have used this before with no problems. Several turns in completed first research project with ship construciton. Working on projectile weapons and military science.

It researches normally... and then. It is 1 turn away from completing military science and doesn't finish it. Instead it says 0.0 turns to completion the status bar is 1 slot from full and it is researching projectile weapons normally. Keeps going until finishing Projectile weapons... and does the same thing! going over to the next item in the line up.

I put it on split research points and it finishes the two it should have awhile ago.

I think ok no biggie and move back... colonize a tiny breathable and it only gives me 5 slots to build with and I should have 6 with my racial ability of extra storage. I go and check my other planets. And none of them show the extra spaces now, but I know they used to. Check a few more things and NONE of my races abilites are being shown. It lists them in the abilities area and when I click on my race it shows everything correct but the game isn't using any of it?

Any one else had a problem like this before?
I could start a new game since this one isn't too far along but I would rather not as I got a great initial start that should make for a good challenging game...

Any ideas?
