ORIGINAL: Fishers of Men

Downloaded and installed!! Can I continue playing a 1.7.0.10 saved game?

Can you? I suppose I can try, although I've read of some weirdness opening save files with new versions.

[Data]

Yap, it's no guarantee that you'll have a stable game with older save games but it's worth a try if you really want to.
Anyway, great work....v12 already, Elliot must still be on steroids [:)]

[Fishers of Men]

I am continuing to play with a 1.7.0.10 save, and no weirdness has appeared....... YET.

[radwyn]

Thanks for 12 have enjoyed playing a few full games already

[scotten_usa]

Nice patch. My 1.7.0.10 Dhayut game was repeatedly crashing at the same point each time I loaded from save. I downloaded and installed 1.7.0.12 and voila! No more crashes.[&o]

[jezwhywhy]

havent played dw in a couple of months time to give this new beta a whirl, had a very quick game the other day noticed a few civilian ships stopped in deep space doing nothing, but i think thats normal right?

[Fishers of Men]

Jezwhywhy, civilian ships stopped in deep space is not a common thing. Check and see if they are damaged and lost their hyperdrive. If they are important to you, send a construction ship to repair them. But it is true that some civilian ships do hang out at planets in an idle statis for a while.

[feelotraveller]

Civilian ships can end up stopped in deep space when they have no mission and flee from pirates/monsters or hostile fleets.  They will remain there until assigned a mission.  Perhaps this is what happened in your game jezwhywhy?

[jezwhywhy]

yeah likely, i started another game with the same thing happening.
