Trying to access the diplomacy menu causes the game to crash. This always occurs.

The diplomacy screen does not come up, the game crashes while still displaying the galaxy map (or whatever previous menu). 

If Amplitude does not expect to be able to fix this issue soon, would it at least be possible to make a mod that reveals the home planet of any encountered faction? This would make it possible to initiate diplomacy without spamming explorer ships and hoping I find their home planet before their military finds me. I've tried looking at some ED2 modding resources but I have no idea if it's even possible to reveal specific systems through mods.

Thank you for your assistance.
