end of turn hang's ruined yet another epic game!

It happens with annoying regularity. I try to keep the map size, and the number of players, units, and ships down as much as possible. In a current game it also helps to crush your opposition as quickly as possible.

Same here. I love those epic games with everything maxed out. I think they may have an idea on how to speed things up some. We'll just have to wait and see.

I noticed some effect on the turn end hanging bug you might want to try.

I had same situation: had saved the game, everytime I trieds to process a turn I got the hang bug.

But I noticed, that if you in the game set the computer players that have died to human players (menu->players thingie), then these hangings stop. Maybe the computer tries to process the AI of a player that is already dead, and that causes some problems, or maybe it is trying to report to dead AI. I guess the reason why it comes often in the end of the bar is that the neutral empires which are easily destroyed are last.

Anyway, seting those destroyed computer races as human helps atleast me, now the game won't freeze at all (I guess if it starts again, I can see if some other race died). It won't slow game play down much, as dead empires have no turns.

Can anyone who has the end of turn hang please try this method? You might save your games, and we might get the exact reason for it, or atleast confirm that this might be related to it.

Doesn't work for me I'm sorry to say.
I set the empires that had been destroyed under player control and it did nothing. So I then set all players under my control, which also did nothing. I still get that crash at the end of turn processing causing a CTD.
