Re: Game Freezes
typos and spacing errors can cause problems. it should produce an error about reading the file instead of just locking up, but you never know. upload the components file you tweaked, someone should be able to notice something in it.

Re: Game Freezes
I attached the armor and shields I added to the game. As far as how long I wait before the game freezes it takes about a minute. When I press control,alt, del the game has stopped responding.

Re: Game Freezes
Ok, three points:
- Even on my 1Ghz 256Mb ram machine, the (P&N2) AIs can sometimes take over a minute to process. The Windows TaskManager (Ctrl-Alt-Del) will give a "not-responding" tag to any program that has not refreshed its window in 30-45 seconds. The not responding tag means nothing more than that.
- At a glance, everything looks good, and the only thing I am not sure about is the 40Kt armor.
-Definitely try removing all the components, and adding them in one at a time until SE4 stops working. The component you added Last will likely be the problem.

Re: Game Freezes
This is the same error in the SEorg Ultimate Mod I wrote. My only problem is that I might find and fix the error, only to have to find and fix it again! lol. It pops up whereever the hell it wants to. I'll just keep coding and hope I kill it one day.

Re: Game Freezes
No, I am not playing a high tech game. I start all of my games with the default settings as far a tech goes. I don't know why the game freezes since all the components I've added can't be researched until later in the game. The first new armor isn't available until tech level 7. So the computer players wouldn't have access to them on the first turn and yet the game freezes on the first turn.
