I have the same crash, it happens at the end of the month.

Same for me. I followed the update instructions. I test finishing the month ignoring everything else to see if things are working. Same error, appearing at the end of the month.

Hmm, then try deleting just
        STR_MISSION_RAID
        STR_MISSION_SMUGGLING

from 'available missions' in 'alien strategy'

DonĀ“t touch the possibleMissions: then?. I say, only delete those two strings from that section?.

I'm having trouble editing my save.  I've tried both cutting the entire possible missions and only the specified strings, but it the error still comes up.

Same as the others were getting earlier, with the line 148 pop-up.

This may or may not work but you could try resetting each of the region sections to the default "null" state. 
Example:     

- region: STR_ARCTIC
      missions: ~

This would break any ongoing missions chains like gold/military transport and other multiwave missions, but should stop any conflicts between existing and new mission generation. No idea what other side effects could occur from "tricking" the game into thinking there are no missions running. Use at your own risk.

Okay, I'll give it a try once I get back to my main computer.

It's a blind shot, but maybe you could start a new campaign and then move the missions section from the new campaign to the old campaign? In the4 worst case you'll get some early missions later.

What I had to do was re-edit my save (after initially deleting the entire "possibleMissions" section).  I had to open an earlier save, and copy that section back in.

Then I edited out all of the
        STR_MISSION_RAID
        STR_MISSION_SMUGGLING
Entries.

Passed the end of the month with no problems.

(Its things like this that make Ironman a Really Bad Idea for a game like this still in development)

Hello,

small bug when transporting crew with the new devastator. I carried 6 hands, one mutated reaper and an advisor to a crash site. One hand wasn' t onboard, the last one in the crew selection row for the devastator under vessels.

The next mission i flew without the advisor. Now the lost hand was onboard.

First and foremost I would like to thank Dioxine for all his work done so far and all the work that will follow.

Now to the problem at hand.

I have been playing XPirates from the previews release and updated just after the last patch.

Since I made a clean start of the game (no preserved saves) I started a new game and all seemed to be fine, alas once I complete the 4th month of gameplay the support from all nations / factions gets terminated and I lose my game. This happened twice by now.

Is there something I fail to understand or is this something normal and I am doing something wrong ?

I should note that I was well in my fifth year on the older versions of the game and nothing like that ever happened.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Do you have a save from just before the end of the 4th month?  It's hard to tell what's buggy and what's not if we don't have a save to look at.
