Posts: 95 03/11/09 10:01:13	Tags : None I have just concluded a successful war against Spain to the effect that their new homeland is southern Italy. But now I have a sizable fleet off Cape Trafalgar, with, as it turns out, HMS Victory as the flagship. Unfortunately, I cannot move this fleet to dry dock to repair battle damage, because every time I try to give it orders, the game crashes. Every thing else works fine, and I can operate normally with every other unit. Alas, it seems that HMS Victory will have to remain on permanent patrol.

Now if I click those ships the game crashes. I wasn't sure if it was associated with the ship pathing lag that occurs when I click on a ship between the english channel (20+ second freeze as the game calculates pathing routes due to the ridiculous number of french ships stacked on the trade lines) and down to gibraltar (much shorter freeze)

When I deselected that fleet and clicked on them again they were no longer CTD bugged. I then loaded the fleet with troops and sent them on their merry way. I then tried to click the port right next to where the bugged fleet was, a port filled with ships. Instantly i crashed to desktop. :( Unfortunately the fleet in port is a full fleet of 10, so i cant add another ship to it as a work around.

Posts: 4 03/11/09 13:11:55	tried to things with the bugged fleet in port: Attempted to move another fleet in and trade a ship out from the bugged fleet, and add a ship from the unbugged fleet. Game instantly crashed to desktop. Attempted to move an infantry unit into the port and add them to the fleet. It worked, but the second I clicked on a ship in the port's window the game crashed to desktop. Can't really think of anything else to try. Possibly destroying the dock, but that doesn't force the ships out of port I dont think. Possibly if I could bait the enemy into raiding that port, but it's in the heart of my lands so most likely not going to happen.

Posts: 2079 03/11/09 14:07:07	Yeah, I have this same issue! I play as Sweden, and my biggest fleet with 5 second rates and 3 third rates doesnt work... it just stands there in the western atlantic. When I press the fleet it just freezes and eventually crashes. :(

Posts: 4 03/11/09 15:58:42	nah, go ahead.. it's a fairly rare bug.. and it has only happened to two out of my 50+ fleets. Also, once it happens you can keep playing, just dont click on the cursed fleet.

Posts: 98 03/11/09 22:32:35	i found the solution for me was to wait five or six turns and not move my ships at all. its a serious problem as had my campaign on hold for 3 years were the enemy created a giant army

Posts: 53 03/12/09 05:06:15	Yeah my game crashes after my fleet kills another fleet and captures a ship. The other ship still shows up on the map if I click on it my whole game crashes.. If I don't click and just wait till it sinks it seems to be ok. Really freaking annoying that ship battle took an hour.

Posts: 47 03/12/09 10:09:03	Normally effects Fleets with 1st,2nd and 3rd Rates only. Its a miscalculation on distance moved. The System does not calculate correctly and causes it to bug out. Just move a Sloop to a bugged/stuck fleet releases it to be used again as a fleet moved at the lowest ships distance. Last Edited By: tdk007 03/12/09 10:11:58. Edited 1 time.
