The error scenario is this: I created an open game with the latest 2.6.38 patch of CapLab together with the widely distributed "Real World" mod available here http://www.moddb.com/games/capitalism-l ... od-82-beta (I used the version available May 7).

After playing it for a while, using the attached version of the saved game posted, whenever I encounter the game date March 3, 2041 I get the error message popup shown.

Let me know if you need any further information from me to track down and fix this bug.

I'm going to try and start a new game from scratch using this mod and determine if this crash is a total game date-related issue. I'll post the results of my investigation here.

We have investigated the problem and found the cause of it.

The MOD defines "Fishery Farm" both as a farm livestock type and a manufacturing input item, which confuses the game system and causes the error. See the attached screenshots.

The solution would be to remove "Fishery Farm" from MANUFACTURING.DBF in the MOD only keep it as a farm livestock type.
