Game seems still unplayable

from GalCiv3 Forums

Curious to find out if any of the other players experience bugs that I do.

1. Sometimes planets disappear during attack just to reaper the next turn.

2. During battle you cant see fighters and weapons firing.

3. Some ideology perks still don't work.

4.  THIS the biggest problem: after attacking planet, starbase or fleet it take about 5 to 10min to process that battle.  In the mean time you can move around map but that's it.

     this issue makes the game basically unplayable.  It happened after turn 700.

I see #2 intermittently.  Haven't seen #1.  #4 might be the bug that was fixed today in 1.82 where after an attack the animation would sometimes appear to be going off the map or coming in from off the map, and the game seemed locked until it completed, which could take a very long time on the larger maps.

Which perks still don't work?

Oh yea, sometimes my drones from the carrier module don't appear in the battle,,,, and not only they don't appear, none come up in the destroyed ship list at the end, even when at least one of my other ships WAS destroyed! I have never had a battle where at least one drone was not destroyed when one of my other ships was destroyed - whenever the drones actually turn up for the battle that is!

Have you updated to 1.82 yet?  We fixed an issue that was causing #4.

I do find that sometimes my game freezes. This almost always happens during a Carrier fleet attacking a Starbase/Planet.  It doesn't happen often, but sometimes I do have to reload a save game from a few turns ago.

This game is more stable than Windows 10. I don't think GC3 has crashed on me ever, not once.
