On the latest rev of a scenario I'm tinkering with, I get a .NET exception on the first AI turn:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Hi Vic - It's 1.10L.

I think I've nailed this. I changed an island with a couple of cities to sea. I deleted the city locations, but I didn't delete the victory points for the hexes (now in the middle of the ocean). When I delete the VPs, the problem disappears.

So worth remembering - if you "Atlantis" a city, remove remember to remove any VPs associated with it.

Maybe deleting a location should automatically delete the VPs?

yes that was it.
thanks for reporting that issue!
in the next version the AI will delete any VP accidently placed in the sea.
 
kind regards,
Vic
