TL;DR Time increments constantly stuck on 5 seconds for the past 1/2 day (in game), maybe all in all 7-8 hours of autoturns.
Ok so, I have been running a newish game (14 years pass start date) with settings tailored for an easier game. Starting pop was 1. 5bil, no Invaders, both Star swarm and precursors on, as well as 1 NPR at start and 30 generation chance.
14 years into the game, I go to hit the 30 day button and my time increment is changed to 5 seconds. Not too out of the ordinary. I left it to auto turn for a while. It didn't go back to normal increments so I left Aurora running overnight. When i came back to it I got an error that forced my force quit Aurora. I forget what the code was however. I left Aurora running again during that day and when I came back I got that same error. I figure that the error is just a result of running Aurora with autoturns for too long. So anyway though, for about several hours of real time, Aurora has been stuck in
constant 5 second increments. Not once since the whole thing started did they budge to something higher.
I have tried to use SM mode in the Event window to see exactly what is causing this but I had no luck. SM view didn't look any different from the normal Event viewer. I made a text file of the Events but again no luck. It did say that the time increments were changed possibly due to combat, but that doesn't really help much.
I have looked around this forum for others with the problem. I found a couple threads addressing it but nothing seemed to explain it conclusively.
This also isn't the first time this has happened. The last game I was playing got stuck in 1 day increments for a while too and I eventually gave up on that game because it wouldn't go back to normal increments
.
If anyone can shed some light on my situation, or provide a way for me to see exactly what is cause the change to the 5 second increments, or just help in anyway at all, that would be wonderful
.
Thank you.
Edit: ok so the error I got is error 3035 "system resources exceeded" or whatever. Whenever I run Aurora in autotruns for a long enough time it seems to bring up that error and causes me to force quit.
