New Bug? AI Takes PBEM Turns

OK, may 05. I'm Austria, all powers are held by humans, no AI involvement. I complete my land phase (no combat) and the AI jumps in and completes turns for France and Prussia! I don't get a menu screen until I get one for G.B.'s land phase. I have files for France and Prussia in my commout directory.

We got back on track via yet another backup distribution, but this is troubling. Anyone else seen this?

More info needed, please let me know.

It happens in an all-human game?  Ouch.  I've seen this a LOT with a two-player PBEM, but hadn't heard about it happening in an all-human game yet.

I've even seen the game simultaneously take over ALL sides and play itself.  Joy.

In our 4 player PBEM game the computer has from time to time skipped the Reinforcement, Naval, and Land phase for human players and has skipped the Naval phase for an AI player. For example the Gb player does his Naval move, the AI then makes a naval turn for (AI) Tu, leaving Ru out entirely, and Au next to move.
