Status: offline 		After installing the 1.0.7.0 patch (most recent patch for distant worlds vanilla) I've started experiencing a number of problems that produce Unhandled Exception Errors.

- When sending ships to explore gas clouds, or to gas clouds for any other reason, the unhandle exception error occurs. Further, the game appears to not even recognize gas clouds. My mining ships never go to them. I never find anything in them (abandoned bases, space monsters, etc.)...it's like they don't exist.

- When right clicking on a fleet (to issue orders) to a fleet from the region level. This produces the error and after I click continue, I find that an odd array of ships, often every ship in the system, has been selected instead of the fleet.

I'm not sure if it's related, but in my first game after the patch I've also experienced severe fuel (Caslon) shortages. Perhaps related to the inability of my mining ships to use gas clouds. Its fairly early in the game (about 10 years in) and practically all my planets, even ones I don't normally use to produce ships, have no fuel.

Edit to add: At the bottom of the gas cloud error, I get the text

"Key Not Found: Gas Cloud"

Status: offline 		do you have a savegame that can be used to reproduce them? if so, upload it to Matrix's ftp site so that Elliot can check it

Status: offline 		I'd try but I have no idea where my saved games are, as they don't seem to be under the C:\Matrix Games\Distant Worlds folders, where the game is installed.

Either way, these errors are not game dependent. They have occurred in all games I've started under the 1.0.7.0 patch.

Quickest way of finding any save game is to load DW. Open the load game screen. Then copy and paste the save game to the desktop.
