As workaround: a simple save and reload game should fix the issue.

It happens too often, even if i reload save game, this bug still occurs after some turns, making the game unplayable. I suspect it's somehow related to population, since i'm moving some pops from planet to planet. I could finish only 3 games out of 8, because of bug like this and non functional diplomacy.

Here's my save file:

AutoSave 744.sav

When I reload the save, the bug does not persist. Could you go to "Documents/Endless Space 2/temporary files" and share a diagnostics file that matches a session in which this bug happened?

After some point in the game, end turn doesn't refill movement points, doesn't grant resources/science/industry. So everything is effectively locked. Reload fixes this isue (but not on the turn it happened). Problem is, at some point it starting to happen to often, that I imagine a lot of people will become frustrated and mad.

That is why I am asking you to share the diagnostics file: If the bug "fixes" itself when reloading, tracking it down with a save can be very difficult. The diagnostics file could give us valuable clues.

Here's another save file and 2 dignostics files (couldn't attach zip archive because of error, so it's 7z):

AutoSave 743.sav

Diagnostics.7z

p.s.  I got 1 old diagnostics file that is 300MB, kinda big one.

If it's 300mb large, then it is most likely from an error like this, though not necessarily the same. If you manage to compress it enough, please share it.

I got similar problem but it is manifests after 4-5 click in game interface.So i can add 3 hero skills then add 1-2 buildings to queue then game woint accept any clicks except end turn which is hanged forever and wont complete.  1.sav Restarting game and reloading wont help next turn click are limited and then you spend them game basically doesnt work.

Sure, here:

Diagnostics.7z

Same thing appears to be happening to me.  Reloading prior saves does not fix issue.

I've had this happen to on two different playthroughs around turn 199. Will start a third play, but right now games seem to break regardless of choices when the empire becomes a bit too large.

Citan, thanks for the saves and diagnostics. Could I ask the others to share theirs as well?

Taking a glimpse at those diagnostics, I think the error is unrelated to the UI, but rather to the marketplace restocking, which is yet another cause for this behavior I have never seen before.

Thanks. I've passed your save and diagnostics along.

Many thanks.
