Hello,
I'm involved in a game running on autohost (thanks for the service, Ron!). In our most recent turn, stars appears to have ignored all of the orders in my .x file - no fleets moved, no new ship designs appeared, research settings didn't change, etc.
As far as I know, nobody else in the game experienced a problem like this. It seems like only my orders didn't take. Note that I didn't get the duplicate serial number error message (though I checked several times  ).
I found another thread where Ron mentioned this bug:

Just remember that there is an odd bug in JRC3 (unknown if occurs in JRC4) that happens when you do multiple Save & Submit's on the same turn. When the turn gens, your turn is basically ignored. Because of this, I recommend that players who want to change their turn, delete their .x file from their local computer, and replay their turn from scratch.

And with that in mind I tried the following:
1. open my turn from the previous year, delete the .x file, save and submit, re-gen the turn
2. delete the .x file, replay the turn from the previous year, save and submit, re-gen the turn
3. delete the .x file, add orders to move a single fleet, save and submit, re-gen the turn
None of these three attempts worked, meaning that in each case the orders weren't followed. I'm kind of at a loss as to what to try next. Any suggestions? I'd really like to continue in this game as I am just entering the satisfying phase of crushing my enemies 
Thanks,
Paul
