That report shows you have 13.2.1 not 13.3.1 - or is it that you have updated since your OP?

Please try updating to MacOS 13.3.1 - that solved this for at least some MacOS users.

I've not come across Remote Mouse before - interesting tool! But I doubt that's contributing to your problem, unless maybe you are using it to play.

Disable the Discord overlay though, as a test.

If that doesn't help, the only other thing of concern in there is that there are numerous stuck In Progress or Failed Windows updates going back to 2020 when Windows was installed. It may be time to consider a Windows Reset or full wipe and reinstall!

Looks the same as the previous, so no advance there.

Please install and run the free utility Speccy. Send its output to a text file and attach that here, thanks.

I don't really see anything in those files to explain this, I am sorry. I see nVidia have another newer driver out today, may as well try that.

Assuming that doesn't help, the crash dump looks for all the world like a game bug - except why does it not affect everyone? And why is it random for you and not triggered by some specific action or event, as is typical with app bugs? Very odd.

After one of these crashes can you load the game right up and carry on from the last save? Or do you need to reboot, or wait a while, before it will run again?

If you make a new Windows user and log into Windows as that, doe sit happen there too?

This is just in that particular save you've attached? Or in any colony you play?


Either way Immediately after the next such crash, Please attach here the latest (ONLY!) game log file, from here:

To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.

Not that I'm aware of, aside from the workaround I linked above.

That is a shame. I guess we'll have to go back to Apple again and hope they can pin down why 13.3 helped some users and not others.

Please let us know if that helps.

The game has not been updated for a year now, and I have no indication if/when any further updates are planned.

Given that the minimum requirement is Ubuntu 16.04 x64 I guess this is likely to keep happening as Ubuntu gets further new versions!
