ElMyamo Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I've encountered a weird one right now: I finished a mission (Scout UFO, industrial tile set), and afterwards the time just stops. Don't get me wrong, the game does not crash, I can still enter my base, start or stop production in the workshop, spend money, build structures in my base, equip my soldiers, give orders to my interceptors or dropship. The only thing that is weird is that the time is stopped completely. I can click the symbols for faster advancement (keyboard shortcuts (1 to 4 and space) work too), the right symbol gets highlighted in yellow, but the time simply stops. I can provide a savegame if needed, and I would be unbelievably grateful if someone has an idea to resolve this, it's 5 am and I can't sleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Dread Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 i know this is going to sound retarded but you didnt accidently press the pause key did you? Just that there is no visible way of knowing that the game is paused and you get exactly what your describing... i know from my own stupidity... took ages to figure out what was wrong, lol.

ElMyamo Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Yea, I've made stupid mistakes before myself, that's why I made damn sure I tried everything possible before I posted here. So no, it wasn't paused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElMyamo Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Save, exit, restart, load? Tried that too, unfortunately it didn't work. But a complete reinstall of the game did the trick. So it's working again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems a bit excessive! LOL. So, that pretty has to mean that a file got messed up somewhere. I'm assuming you were able to load the save that wouldn't work originally.

ElMyamo Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 Yea, excessive is definately the word I'd use, but I was bored, alone in the hospital over christmas with nothing else to do, so I was very motivated to fix the problem Yes, I was able to load the save. I have no idea what got screwed up, or how, but after reinstalling everything worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
