Was messing around with bug reports and was on my 6th or 7th game creation lobby of that launch of AI war and I saw the blank discs on the planets with no ship icons, although I still got the planet icons themselves, unlike the attached screenshot. I then quit the game, re-launched it and never saw anything like it again so I did not report it as I figured I'd just screwed it up by starting so many games in a row.

I mean 20 pages worth in notepad. On the plus side, this is the only thing in my UnhandledErrors.txt file. I do have an AIErrors.txt file that is 290megs (yes, megs) big that I'm trying to open at the moment, but that's nothing to do with this bug I don't think. Cancel that, seems like most stuff in AIErrors is old data.
