I seem to get this error all the time after loading my savegame for a while.
I have no idea what it is, but it's kindof sad, since I can't continue my game as the error pops up at a certain time in-game.
A picture is added. The game version is Distant Worlds: Legends 1.7.0.6
I can upload the savegame somewhere if necessary.

Just downloaded the 1.7.0.7 beta version and loaded the savegame. Which resulted in the same error. :)

You should ftp upload the offending save game file.

Just had the same error after playing a long time... In a newly started game. The savegame and error details can be posted, just send me a message.

I'm getting the same crash in all of my games. Seems to happen whenever an ai empire goes down at the hands of another ai empire.

This sucks. :(

Getting the error myself. Dunno what more to do personally.
This is a critical issue, as it renders the game completely unplayable...
Hope they come up with a fix soon. These GxHab crashes are beyond old at this point.
