"ERROR: WP link not found in GetWarpPointData" followed by a couple of "Error 5 was generated by Auroras".

This is a previously reported bug that can pop up when the player obtains system data via interrogation (in my case, espionage or salvaging might obtain it as well). The error messages display when attempting to navigate the galactic map. Apparently the game is hiccupping on WP (is that the same as JP? why call it two things?) links that exist, but can't display because the systems in question haven't been surveyed.

My question: how do I fix it? I didn't quite follow the explanation I found previously, perhaps because of ambiguously named buttons under the F9, jump point tab. In my case, I've obtained data on two systems that are linked in a chain to a system I previously surveyed and, apparently, also linked to a system I know of, but haven't surveyed. If I'm supposed to use "Enter/Explore" under SM as suggested in other posts, I'm not doing it right or that isn't enough.

I'd like to know what the fix is, using SM, and where to carry out the fix. Do I only make changes in the new systems? What changes do I make?

I resolved the error messages by using SM to mark the system to which the new system (the one revealed by interrogations) was linked as "JP surveyed" (even though I haven't surveyed the system). Arriving at the solution was complicated by erroneous connections displayed on the Galactic map screen that had me chasing the wrong systems as the source of the problem.

Ideally, I like a way to edit/reveal only the JP that was causing the problem. If that's possible I'd be eager to learn how to do it.

Hi
I get error3075 followed by infinite loop of errors91 right as i hit 5days turn or whatever on the beginning of the game, no matter the settings.  I feel like its something about this decimal system or something, or comma problem? not sure. . .  I am from Poland if that matters and use win10

I have just started playing the game and have an unusual situation, plus an abend. . . . .

I received a 3420 DAO. Database Object invalid or no longer set.
During this time the game was advancing in 1 minute increments.
I tried to change the time increments, but nothing I did worked.
This continued for about 15 minutes before the program abended with the above message.

You need to use the period as a decimal separator, not a comma.

Control Panel. It used to be called Regional Settings. Not sure if that still holds true.

My main campaign now (85 years) is stuck with "Error in MoveToClosestItem, Error 9, Script out of range".  I had already cancel everything (industry, normal and conditional orders) without success.  Using a previous backup and just passing days end in the same problem.

Something like:

. . . I'm getting an "Error 9 - Subscription out of Range" "MoveToClosestItem" error in a (probably) infinite cycle, so I can't continue the game.   
Campaig is at ~121 years.  . . .

Found the problem. 

Bunch of NPR ships somehow had an order to transit a JP that didn't exist.   Each one was throwing mass errors. 
Designer and deleted the TGs and now it works. 

Added SMEventLog dumped after the fix for anyone to review if they want.   DB is available from original link.

Is it possible to share the magical powers to look and change NPR fleet orders?

I found the empire that was causing the problem.  Deleting the empire or all their fleets I can restore my game.  Is a bigger one and not knowed by my empire.

I already expended alot trying to figure out exactly which one group is causing the problem (colony, trade, survey, etc).  Without success.

If someone has some heurisict to search the root of the problem, I can use it.  If not, I will just dump all they have and compesate then with some resources.

My search/debug process is: delete fleet group, take note, try next turn, faild and repeat.  After the game get fixed, I restore, and start to delete in inverse order.  Appears not be exactly a single fleet group that is causing the problem, but some relation between fleets.

Getting some Error 3021's.   Not sure what's causing it.  On Apply Maintenance.  Might be the cargo pod loaded with fighters that is being hauled to one of my planets.   Not sure how to deliver fighters otherwise. 

I also got a slew of Error 5's.

If new information gives you a clue as to what is causing an error or how to avoid an error, please share for the benefit of other players who may be reading after a forum search rather than in the thread. (The strikeouts are what prompt me to ask.)
