savegame crashes within a few minutes of loading

[MP]

not sure of the cause, but if I were to guess, I would think that the green AI may have ordered an attack on my empire (this would be the first encounter). Autosave interval is 15 (realtime) minutes, which is not being reached before the crash on 2-4x speed.

Game type had been set to Autocrat, but savegame says "not set"

Cannot find a crash log anywhere

I decided to try attacking a few buildings of green and noticed that yellow and green had already been at war in that region previously. I guess it's possible that one of the AIs was giving a dismantle order on a captured military building (from the other AI) but that would seem to go against their tendency to dismantle other buildings (e.g. mines) to get the raw materials to finish their military buildings, even if they're short on soldiers.

In any case, the game still crashed a few minutes after my invasion of green started. I never witnessed a counterattack of green on me.

Re: "Game type had been set to Autocrat, but savegame says "not set""

this appears to happen when loading from an autosave and re-saving. In other words, the autosaves appear to not store the game type data.

Thanks for reporting this issue. I could easily reproduce it on r6680 by loading your game and letting it run for a while. According to the stacktrace, an assertion fails in the dismantle method. This might be related to bug 1205010 somehow.

Thanks. The savegame is indeed buggy due to bug1205010.
