Range Check Error

[Suicide Junkie]

Try retaining control as you end turn.

Then if it works, go back, and turn on one AI minister, and maintain control as you end turn.

Eventually you will find the minister that is causing the problem.

All right, this was odd.

I had a save game 2 turns before I had the game crash on me, when I went to get the game saved just before the spot where it crashed Last night the error never showed up. Does any one know if tsr programs will only occasionally crash the game?

I get range check error within 20 turns. Start a quickstart game, turn off end turn confirmation and begin turn log. Hold down F12 and by the 20th turn I get a range check error. No mods.

This makes me sad. Was looking forward to a long weekend of playing SEIV Gold.

This is funny. Turn 20 is the turn all the AIs will re-design all their ships completly. Have you added any new races? Maybe they miss the drone strategy. Try adding the TDM-ModPack, take two of the races of it (for example the Xiati and the Terrans), make sure no AI races are added and now go up to turn 20. If you do not encounter any error now, it must be some races in your normal game that produces the error. uninstall and delete the "old" SE4 Gold and re-installing the game in this case.

Sad to say but I too just got a Range Check Error as I was in a deep huge Game. I do know that the race was Drushocka and the two turns before the crash this race was taking a very long time to end their turn. That should have warned me. Still displeased that the AI still does this.
