Status: offline 		the common error seems to be linked to object type DateTime. It seems the variable was not initialized properly (if at all) and any functions that refer to it failed as a result.

Status: offline 		Just got the same error as above on a 1.0.4b2 game while trying to redirect 2 ships that were part of a Fleet to a new location on galaxy map. Rest of Fleet had been sent to nearest Space yard for refit.

Status: offline 		Yes i am eventually getting this on a recurring basis even when I make no custom designs. The game is at this point basiscally broken. I can only hope their next release fixes this. Tis is a great game and is currently unplayable.

Status: offline 		Please note that 1.0.4 Beta is a Beta release. If you want more stability, please give the official 1.0.3 update a try. We are working to get all these remaining 1.0.4 issues sorted out before it becomes an official release and we very much appreciate the reports and saves.

Status: offline 		How do you revert back to 1.0.3? Re-install that patch and it overwrites 1.0.4?

Status: offline 		No problem Erik. It is a great game and I understand the need to mass beta something with this many variables. I keep trying to find a consistent pattern to triggering this error.

Thanks for that report. This crash has been fixed in beta3 which should be available in the next day or two.
