The developers are aware of the issue and are currently working on the hotfix, which should be out with the next patch. Before the patch arrives, the community has come up with other temporary solutions on how to avoid the crashes. Here they are:
First, you can adjust the speed of the AI turns to “Normal” and set the viewing of its movements to “Full. ”
Another trick is to randomly click all over the screen during the AI’s turns. This simple action prevented some players from crashing, as well.
If your crash happens right after the “Autosave,” then consider reloading the game, finish all the yellow moves on your turn and cancel all the planned red/blue ones by pressing “Backspace. ”
Some players also had success by disabling mods, but most other players still experienced the same issues anyway.
As of now, the only solution is to wait for the actual patch, which is already in the works. Here is the statement from the developers posted on the official game’s forums.
In the mentioned thread, one of the developers admits that the bug is game-based, but their own latest developer’s version doesn’t have that bug, so it has probably been already removed, which is good news. Now, the only thing left for them is to update the retail version.
