Every time I end turn, midway through the turn process, a popup occurs saying there's a divide by zero error.
Error in Orbital Movement
Error 11 was generated by Aurora
Division by zero
Please report *blah*
Interestingly, if I turn off orbital motion for planets and moons, the error goes away. Until I turn it back on. I don't really want to play without orbiting planets. (might as well be a better Space Empires V then)
EDIT: this is not inhibiting me from playing the game. I just have to click once halfway to each turn's processing. It's irritating since I have to tab back when the error pops up while I'm looking at other things during turn process.

You probably have a moon (or maybe planet) somewhere that has zero orbital radius. The funny part is that I thought Steve fixed this problem ages ago....

Thanks. I'll look for it with SM mode. Then I'll try deleting the system and rerouting all warppoints to it.
EDIT: I found a system, that when I explored into it from SM mode, generated an error. Object not defined.
Unfortunately, I cannot replicate the error as I don't have a backup save from before it.
Backed up and deleted that system. Didn't resolve the div by zero.
EDIT2: Found a system that had a moon with orbit radius 1000. >.>
Deleting that doesn't help either. Watched it, seems to orbit all right (although it has an orbital period of 7.7 hours and I have a time step of 86 000)

I can't find the system. It's not in any of the systems I've explored.
The system where I seeded an NPR at the start of the game isn't it either, I've used SM mode to explore every system 3 jumps from the NPR and there's no sign of a 0 orbit distance anything.
I doubt the NPR has gotten more than 3 jumps away since it's only year 1. (and a half)

If Steve were around, this would probably fall into the category of "send Steve the database so he can find what's causing the error". Since he's incommunicado, however, I don't think there's a lot to be done....

You can send me the DB if you wish. I'll take a look. My email is stevewalmsley at btinternet.com
