"Wait" is back :(

It would probably be helpful to submit your saved game and a ticket describing the problem.

Yes, you certainly should not be seeing this, can you seen in a ticket to support, with a save that reproduce this as well.

I have not seen that problem?

If i use a slow computer, its not the end turn that is slow, its the mouse pointer being all 'sticky' (which is annoying as hell)

Do you get sticky mouse? if not, then your computer is not at all overloaded yet.

I've had the same issue on two different games now and its completely game breaking because if I reload the save the problem still occurs.

I even loaded a save from 4 or 5 turns earlier and tried to play again and I got an unending wait again on the same turn.

This is a really bad bug, its rendered the game pretty much unplayable for me, so I hope you guys release another patch to fix whatever you broke with the last patch soon.

I also just ran into this bug, playing a Huge map w/ against all core game factions and my one custom faction.  Turn 236 hangs on wait although my hang is forever.  Created ticket once again on this issue.

Yet another game that I am not able to finish... 

I had this happen once. Not long after the update to 1.82. I managed to fix this by verifying my local files and have not had it happen since.

Already done this.  It failed.

We are looking into this.  Thanks for the report.

is a fix coming soon?  It's kinda annoying to see my games ruined

Just had it happen to one of my games. Playing without mods with all DLC and 1.82. turn 372 on an insane/abundant/abundant and just hit the "Wait" issue. Cannot get passed it, reload does not work. Happen just after the Krynn decided to surrender to me after their war with the Thorians. Got to move their ships around and then when I pressed turn i got the dreaded "wait" bug.

Edit: Solved it. On the latest save game, the Krynn where still alive even after surrendering, in the diplomacy screen they had the small icon that basically means they are down to one startbase or something like that. The game was hanging on their turn. I reloaded an earlier save, played it and they surrendered but this time the screen came up to say they were eliminated and I was able to continue the game past the point where it hung previously. I have now played 50 turns with no issues so it was definitely something to do with the surrender process.

Excellent, simple to select the option to disable surrendering - one less problem to worry about!

I also had the issue. Reloading the last autosave solved it.

But noone was near defeat in my game, so my guess is it has something to do with dialogue popping up at the wrong time, not the content of the dialogue 

sometimes, reloading the previous auto-save (10 turns before) will work.  I think it has to do with AI ships moving around, somewhere, conflicting in some space.
Stardock support says they fixed the issue, so I'll wait 'til next winter to play it.

I'm on an insane map, and I've been noticing the dialog choices late in the game have been wonky. When settling new planets and when checking out anomalies I'm getting mixed messages to start with. Sometimes, I'm never really sure what was in the anomaly, for example it will say I found a ship when exploring an artifact, and there's no ship afterwards (because it wasn't a graveyard!). Anyway, I also have the WAIT error and it totally sucks on an insane map and I'm pissed this is happening again! Cmon man, first it was the memory limits in GC2, and then multiple versions of the WAIT bug in GC3. Why do you even offer an insane size?! I feel like I've been banging my head on this wall for going on ten years. Oh wait, it's actually been eight years. :/

edit: I'm on turn 363 and not looking to go back five turns for the last autosave.

When is the patch? Is there a hotfix that is going to be available?

I also get the wonky dialog on insane. It shows the wrong message for a sec and then updates the dialog info.

Lets hope the next patch addresses these bugs

I just ran into the same bug The Snathi surrendered to me that turn, but when I press 'Turn' the game does not progress. It happens both in 1.82 and 1.83 opt-in. I submitted a ticket.

[edit] The bug is fixed in 1.83#2 :') Thanks for the fix

Unfortunately, the stuck turn we fixed was unrelated to surrendering.  However, I'll look into your ticket and see what's going on.
