<r> As far as I can tell every freighter I have is waiting at this planet or out collecting resources for it and construction everywhere else has ground to a halt. I let the game run for 20 years but it showed no signs of stopping.<br/>

<r> I had several pirate factions with over 1000 ships and over 30,000 firepower. Problem was that they were small ships with average 30 firepower per ship and would fall apart to area weapons.<br/>

They appeared in my current Shadows game, one of the other empires destroyed all their colonies while I was waiting for my invasion fleet to refuel.

<r> I had just finished upgrading my troops to Clone troops and tried to disband the ones that I did not need but found that some have no icon or location and I can not do anything with them. Can be found with the save I uploaded.<br/>

Something like that, I got to the year 3232 and only had four opponents remaining. Will load 3209 again and try to play to the end in one go over the weekend.

I'm still running 1.7.0.13 at the moment, was hoping to finish my current game before trying 1.7.0.14, but the last save was 188 MB and I can't free enough memory to load it[&:]

I upgraded from Vista to 7 at the weekend and this seems to have fixed the mouse cursor problem. Still running out of memory though[&:]

<t> I have been getting a similar problem, I do not think it has anything to do with auto-save or the setting files but it only happens to me with larger save-game files. I have disabled auto-save, but that was because it is takes nearly 20 minutes to do a save (140 MB)<br/>

I installed NET framework 4.0 when it was released hopeing that I would be able to continue some of my larger saved games, but it made no difference, still stuck at 120MB. Maybe the program needs a change to make use of the new features?

<t> With the 1.0.3 patch I have been able to play without having a crash, but when I tried to load a saved game I get a message that Windows has stopped working, Distant Worlds then closes. I uploaded three saved games, "Last save that will load" which did not finish uploading. "Last save that will ...

How big are save game files going to get with large games? I got to 2791 and the save file is 121MB but will not load, and there are still a lot of systems that have not been explored.
