Game bug when German AI executes the turn

I'm playing as the Russian and my game just crashed in August 1941. The German AI was attacking a Russian group in a forest and the error code said something to the effect that some number was outside normal bounds. Unfortunately, I had not been saving my turns before I executed the German AI move, so there's no file I can send to recreate the problem. I'll start saving my turn before the AI executes from now on. Just FYI.

Just an FYI: At the end of each turn the game automatically creates a savegame file (autosave.dc3). So long as you don't execute another turn, which would overwrite the file, you have a save game file you could provide. Also, I think there is a 'details' button on the error message dialog box that you can expand and then copy the text. That text would be extremely helpful to the designers in diagnosing errors.

here's where the save is located if you installed to the default location
as Webizen said, the auto save would be helpful in recreating and a screen shot of any error message always helps, thanks

Thanks for reporting this. Sorry for leaving a bug in. Sounds like a bug at least.
If possible please send me the savefile you used to restart. Or if the advice above was in-time the autosave.
My email is
vic@xs4all.nl
Question: Could you continue the game or did you have to restart?
Best wishes,
Vic

I just sent the autosave file. When the bug occurred I quit playing at that point and posted my note about the problem. I did not try a restart. Assuming the autosav file recorded the moves I made before I executed the turn, it should reproduce the error.
Best wishes, Norm
