yea man its been happening to everyone (just about) the campaign map is rly bad right now... there are no known fixes and the general consensus is we will all just have to wait until the patch this coming week.

I have the 1.3 patch and the movements on the campaign map are okay in vanilla form. In act just to see how good CA did I clicked on everything on the map including docks, ships in and out of dock, cities, troops, characters of interest and no ctds. If, after modding files and you get ctds, that is the modder's fault, not CA's. Check your spelling, punctuation marks, spaces, etc. In text files, they are some of the easiest to ruin your hard work and some of the hardest to find to correct.
