We are investigating the issue. If you have a >1MB save (without enabled mods), it could help us ^^.

We may have found a fix. It will be tested new week by our QA team.

Nice!

Is a 1Mb save still needed? Or you can also quickly generate a max size save (with custom generation settings, something like 120x180 or larger) and with 7 bots, which should be around 1Mb.

I didn't had time to check if it was a network issue or not, but I guess you managed to find out what were causing that bug.

Hello,

My frieds and I have been having this same issue for the past year.  Is it possible there is really a fix in place?

We have all of the expansion packs, up through Inferno, and highly enjoy the gameplay.  The issue is when we're up around or over 100 turns, the save game file size creeps past the 1MB threshold and from that point on none of the non-host players autosave operations are successful and manual saving does not work either.  Only the host is able to save from then on and attempting to load those saved games over 1MB at a future date result in the game loading process hanging at the transferring game data stage... indefinitely.

I had posted to the Steam community forum about this back in February 2018, and that post can be found here:

Please let us know if there is a fix in the works for this bug.

Thanks so much.

The problem is still here :'(

Agreed, this has not been resolved.  So frustrating.  This issue has been going on for a very long time and prevents our group from ever finishing our multiplayer games.  This is one of the only things preventing us from moving on to Endless Space.  Is there any research being done on this bug?
