Game crashing on selecting military project to build.

from Stardock Forums
Hi,

I am encountering weird crashes when trying to start any military project(from planet screen) on some planets - currently there are two of twelve in my empire causing crashes. The crash is pretty reproducible (happens everytime) and game just exits to OS. Does anybody encountered similar issue? Maybe anyone knows any workaround? I have tried to assign any military project from planet list view but nothing changes. Game does not crash but no project is started. I have Polish-localized game, version 1.20.

cheers

The two planets causing problems belong to the same star system - they are Nestor I and Nestor II. I conquered them from Torians and then Torians gave up.

Could be something in your translated data files. Check your debug.err file for script or parsing errors.

I dropped localized version and installed GC in English and updated to 1.21. Now it seems to work fine. I am pretty sure that crash happened when trying to build any ship on the planet with no space on the orbit. I don't have *.err file but i have *.cra file from Smart Exception. It contains the following lines:
