Random Crashes

from Stardock Forums
I'm Seeing alot of crashes when selecting the Details Screen from the Production Screen. I wasn't see this two updates ago.

The debug file doesn't log anything, the game justs exits to the desktop, which requires a screen refresh.

Sounds like a divide by zero but not sure. That screen is pretty new.

The governor names are also not appearing on this screen. By selecting the apparently empty boxes, you can find the governor that is desired, but there is no indication which governor was chosen aside from looking at the build priority window.

This crash seems to be happening reliably when looking at the details page in the following three scenarios:

1) The planet is Earth.
2) The planet was colonized with a colony ship.
3) The planet was owned by a race that was created after the beginning of the game (i.e. the Venge).

This crash does not happen for colonies that were captured by invasion of major races or minor races that have existed since the beginnin of the game.
