GalCiv closes if screen saver kicks in??

from Stardock Forums
Is it just me or does GalCiv fail to survive a screen saver kicking in? It might just be me but my WinXP Pro machine has fast user switching enabled and it seems that if I switch users or my screen saver kicks in the game closes...possibly badly hence the difference in 'restore last civ' and 'load saved game' in my earlier post. Has anyone else seen this?

Dominic,

I have not seen this but I have seen GalCiv writing to the Debug.err file while Galciv
is in the background. You might want to check your Debug.err file (the one in the
Galciv directory) to see if anything is obvious. Mine fills up with screen error messages.

***WARNING****

Check the properties of the debug.err file before trying to load it with an editor (I use
NOTEPAD). If it is small (>1Meg) you should be able to view it. If it is huge (<2MEG)
LOOK OUT. It may take forever to load (I don't know for sure, but it might even
take your OS down).

Cheers,
Jack
