    Default General/Admiral CTD Bug

    Has anyone else noticed that Generals and Admirals are the cause of several CTDs?

    I first noticed this after disembarking an army stack lead by a General in a port; whenever I tried to move the General, either out of the port onto land or back into a ship, I suffered a CTD. After numerous tries to resolve this, I discovered that I could move any and all of the units, except for the General. Unfortunately, I couldn't disband the General without a CTD, but at least I recovered my army so it wasn't a total loss.

    A few turns later, I encountered another CTD bug, this time with a fleet of four First Rates (that I had just produced the turn before); when I tried to select the fleet, CTD. Next, I tried a trick I discovered earlier; I added more ships to the fleet, which somehow allowed me to select the whole fleet without an immediate CTD. But when I selected the Admiral's ship icon, CTD. Once again, I discovered that I could select and move all of the other ships in the fleet, except for the Admiral's flagship.

    Obviously, Generals and Admirals are the cause of these types of CTD. How? I have no clue. I can't imagine how CA could've screwed up E:TW so badly that Generals and Admirals could cause these types of problems.

    (Oops, wrong forum. I intended this for the E:TW forum. I'll try to get a mod to move it.)
