The freeze (for me) seems to be longer dependent on how large the range an army/fleet has to move. Because fleets can eventually reach great distances, the green overlay that shows where you can move to becomes bigger. The bigger it is the more likely the game is to freeze, and eventually crash. The amount of ships within the fleet may also determine when it crashes. Thats my opinion anyway, i've tried altering some graphic settings but that doesn't seem to do much so it may just be a coding bug or something. Yes it started when I got third rates and bigger fleets.CA?

Posts: 3 03/08/09 10:40:33	Yeah, I put my money on the Green Range Indicators that pop up when you click on your fleet. As has been stated before, as you get further into the game and the Fleet Range Indicator gets bigger and bigger the problem occurs more often. Has happend to me with a fleet consisting of 1x 4th rate. . . blocking the trade route between Port Royal and Havanna. I never get the same issue with land units. Land Battles & Sea Battles are flawless without any problemes as yet. Just the Conquest Map and clicking on Fleets. Does anyone know if this particular issues has been reported to CA???

It happens whether they are docked at port or not. I will crash whether I try to select the unit from the lists, click on the port if is docked, or tab through to it via navies or, if docked, ports. Only seems to happen in the Americas: I had a fleet in the Bahamas docked and a fleet up near Maine not docked. This happened playing as the English and as the French. I am hopeful since this seems to be a repeatable bug.

I selected some ships for movement into port and one for movement out. However, after executing the exchange, the fleet and the port still showed the same ships. When I tried to do the exchange again, the game crashed.

My main fleet is now unusable because of the almost inevitable 10 second freeze then CTD. The ships were at one point stuck in the port in Jamacia, but after several crashes and restarts became operational again. Now they are stuck up by Newfoundland, with my army now stranded there. Really really ruining the game

Posts: 24 03/09/09 10:32:47	Sometimes, I can get around this crash. It actually works better for me when a fleet is in port. One recently would crash when I selected the admiral's ship...so I started on the other end. Another I was able to work around (I was merging fleets at the time) by selecting the other fleet first. But now I have a fleet off of Bermuda that is useless to me. I haven't been able to work a way around the crash at all. When I first started playing (after finishing RTI) as England, I was crashing during a the AI turn, and shutting off the "Show AI moves" got me past that one as it was a French fleet causing the crash.

Posts: 11 03/10/09 21:10:10	+1 As the game progresses the lag gets worse and worse when selecting fleets or ships in the fleet. Right now I'm at about a 3 second delay, but no crash. These are full fleets, with several large ships including the HMS Victory if that matters... I'm around 1870-1880 in the timeline as England

Posts: 24 03/11/09 02:08:33	I am having the same problem. I have a number of fleets I can't select. Some are in Europe, some in the Americas. Any time I try to select them, it crashes to desktop. I'm playing Britain, and it's really annoying to lose big chunks of your navy that way. I get random crashes on the campaign map too. I'm learning to quicksave constantly. On the plus side, the battles have performed well, with only a single crash during a sea battle, and none on land. (And I've had some BIG battles.)

Posts: 26 03/11/09 02:50:40	Same problem as the rest of you, also late in the game(1772) also involving a fleet of 3rd/4th rates. Could someone from CA respond and tell us if they are working on this issue?

Posts: 2 03/11/09 14:00:25	A (slightly roundabout) fix that worked for me: 1. Select a ship that does not cause a crash. Or build one. 2. Merge this with the fleet that causes the crash. The merged fleet will be automatically selected, and can then be moved or split up again, at least for me. I haven't tried this at port, or with a full stack navy (where the swap screen is brought up instead of automatically merging) but I hope this helps some people until a patch comes that will hopefully fix this issue.

I just tried this. I bought a 2nd fleet over from Europe (where the game lags but doesn't crash) to the Americas where my 'click-n-crash' ships are, and I didn't even have the chance to merge them! Now clicking on the ships that have just arrived crashes the game as well! (They were 1st rates, 2nd rates and heavy 1st rates like the other fleet, Ill try it with a small ship next.) If it's the green movement circle, is there a way to mod the game and simply delete the movement indicator? A temporary measure to stop this incredibly annoying CTD.

Or maybe try one that was built in the Americas, so you don't have to change theatres? It was changing theatres (from Europe to the Americas) that was the start of my crashing problems actually. Other than that, I am out of ideas, sorry!
