Summary / Title
Can't finish turn, stay in "Pending". Probably because 2 AI, red (unknown) and green (Craver) are stuck "in encounter"

Description
This save cannot be continued as the game won't allow to finish turn 101. I assume there is an issue with green (and red) AI in this save as the player also can't resolve a combat with green AI

Steps to Reproduce

1. Load the save
2. (Optional) try to resolve a combat with green (Craver) AI, a fleet should be ready for it on the bottom-right of the map on the Gienna System. If you do this since the combat can't be resolved you can't finish the turn because of it (the popup come back everytime you try to end the turn)
3. Try to end the turn, the button stay stuck in Pending (if you did step 2 you also can't end the turn because of the unresolved combat between you and an AI)

Also sometime you can t properly exist the game, you have to shutdown the process from the task manager of windows

Reproducibility
5/5

Expected Behavior
Being able to end the turn

Version
1.0.3 Gold Public (using the beta preview for the hyperium fix)

Notes
The game was removed, every local file deleted (even the one in the Document folder) and clean reinstalled for the release

The diagnostic file seems to point to some nullReferenceException with some SacrificeGuardian. The Green AI also seemed to lose some system very recently so they may have been a war going on.

Question: can this save be repaired or is it too far gone and I should start a new game ?

In beta I had this happen with cravers also. Their hero ship would not die/ leave the battle and the battle could not resolve. Another time I had this happen to myself in alpha. The way I could confirm this was that the fleet fighting existed of only 1 hero ship.

I switched to the new 1.0.4 preview patch and starting from an earlier autosave (2 turn before) worked this time.

I assume the bug was one of those fixed byt the patch.

I saw something similar and just quit the game and reloaded. Fortunately, I had a save game just a turn back. The condition did not occur a second time.
