I reuploaded beta 5

Thanks, that solved the crash so i could load the game.

Looks like the patched save I uploaded indeed has fixed the reported crash! I'm short on time, but progressed another few turns without of issue.

What I noticed is that with the unpatched save there was another two battles. So I guess the crash was caused by phantom taskforce instances that actually were part of another taskforce in another sector so after battle the game failed to remove destroyed ships.

Great work with the saved game fix option via UE.

Don't tell me that they allocate a data array to map all the taskforces by array index!

You don't want to know....

Without question it is a common issue. I have seen broken saves like that a few times and it is sure to break the game rather soon than later. The player and AI just need to redeploy ships often enough and the counter raises amazingly fast.

It's not all new temp IDs, just the new TFs remaining the next turn. As told, no interest in trek.exe patch for this unless AI and turn-lag gets fixed first:

Not that many, only repeatable without crash log (but with clear windows event logs) from long time pet-universe games against weak AI mods (turn lag would kill interesting/good games).

Awesome, yes i wasn't sure this meant "fixed" fixed, but thanks so much for everyone's help @flocke, @thunderchero, @spocks-cuddly-tribble, i will give it a download and see how things get on

Edit: Game completed, final turn was 1188
