Production support screens are taking a really really long time to load then crashing.

I noticed earlier in the game, maybe the last couple of turns that sometimes prod planning (only for allies I think) was taking a really long time to load but it wasn't crashing.

Any idea why? Here is the save. Just advance through USE and you'll see what I mean. This is v3.2.0.

Btw, if I load it with 2.7.1 it gets through production planning fine.....

It will free up in a few turns. You just have to wait it out when it happens.

Does anyone know what version someone would need to install to be able to run prod planning? Would the non-beta version work? i.e. run both files shown here but not the beta? I have a friend who only has 3.2.0 installed and he is not sure what files to install so that he can do prod planning again.......

An update. My opponent checked and it appears that CW is sending 255 build points to China on the trade agreements screen. Is there a way to edit this? Of course CW has never tried to send 255 bp's to China.

It can be. I've done it before. Actually "deleted" an agreement. As always when you do these things make a copy of your game file so that if you royally screw things up you can recover.

So about a 1/4 of the way down the game file (in this example lines 10013 - 10025), you'll find the block that corresponds to the trade agreements. The lines are in the same order as shown on the corresponding "Trade Agreements" form.

The first number on a line is the number of BPs being sent, the second number is oil and the third total resources. I'm not exactly sure what the 4th, 5th and 6th numbers are. But the 7th is the country code of the sender and the 8th is the country code of the receiver. Not sure what the 9th is. 10th is 1 for temporary and 0 for Mandatory.

Good luck. [:)]

FYI, I was unable to load trade agreements using 3.2.0 - mwif crashes.

However using 2.7.1 I was able to load and get this screenshot in case this helps anyone to diagnose or resolve this.

This is the trade agreement form from the game file you attached in the first post of this thread. It doesn't match the one you're showing? If you attach the game file that's giving you problems I'd be happy to try to edit/fix it if you wish.
