I received the save but it was 3:27 AM my time, so I was sleeping at that point and had to go to work in the morning, not having time to check my emails. I will play now and send it on.

Save will be sent on in like a minute. 

I had an issue with the game. After hitting Enter and therefore saving, I next used "Exit to Desktop" and was stuck on the title-screen without menu. I hope I didn't damage anything with that? Do I remember correctly that I have to exit via Exit to Main Menu?

I don't have much experience with PBEM so I'll let someone else confirm, but it's likely you have that habit from regular pitboss where it is very encouraged to exit to main menu first to avoid server crashes.

edit: Misread your post a bit, disregard. IDK why it wouldn't exit completely.

It also told me it would have to start version 1.4.5 when I loaded the save, even though I start the game automatically with 1.4.5 via ini-editing. Well, we will see if everything works. If not, those turns are at least easily replayable.

My start differs greatly from my starting screenshot, we will need a remake. I'll post a screenshot in my thread.

Can you end the turn and send me the save so that I can check our start too in case it has issues?

Rusten, I will play the turn again, hopefully without getting that weird error and send the save to you again. I'll try to send it directly, I think otherwise the tracker would get messed up.

I don't think this is related to your issue. It's a map problem -- pindicator made an oopsie.

Yes, there is an error. Part of balancing being done after starts was i realized i needed to shift starting locations around and it looks like i messed up when moving Rusten's starting.

Is it possible for me to world builder the save or do we need someone like Ramk with more technical abilities
