This means that when I ran stars.exe with a command line options -g -l to do a turn gen and logging, the last line of the log file said "FAILURE".

The .chk file (-v command line) indicated no .x file corruption. On a hunch, I did a -v using JRC4 and it said that .x11 was corrupt. I then did a -g -l using JRC4 and it generated just fine, but skipped .x11 as corrupt.

Its possible that player 11 may be attempting to utilize the JRC3 hex-edit bug that allows for free population creation.

I have switched the game to use JRC4 to gen turns and removed the SYSTEM HOLD. It has generated a turn. If player 11 complains, feel free to restore a previous turn from the 5 backup turns you have available to you in Host Utility.

I recommend that all hosts use JRC4 to generate turns. In fact, I *should* make JRC4 the default...
