Getting weird ship names. "Failed to Generate" appearing in front of names, such as "Failed to Generate Discovery" and "Failed to Generate Colony" Playing a custom civ.
Hello! Would you be kind enough to provide a save file via dropbox link for our team to review?
I figured out what caused this - see what happened under "Ship Callsign". Renaming Callsign should fix, but I'm sure you'll want this error programmed out 
My guess is that OpenAI timed out. We're still working on those cases.
I've spent a few minutes playing around with the civilization generator, and in addition to the [ failed to generate ], I've also seen it generate names as: How about "______ "? (with whatever name it had generated where the ______ is). I guess the AI is being indecisive sometimes.
Two other issues:
Choosing an icon picture and choosing a foreground picture (not generating them) seems to result in both being set to use whichever image you chose last, which results in one of them being squashed or stretched in the display.
When you DO generate a picture, it doesn't always seem to generate one - but sometimes if you generate a different faction after that, among the pictures presented will be one that was obviously generated to match the previous faction (and none that are appropriate to the new one).
My supernova Cruiser ships don't seem to be auto naming correctly. If my ship is named "Stone" the ship is always created with the name "Stone" instead of S.S. Stone #1, S.S Stone #2

Hey, what did you put during the race creation into the field for ship names? That could be the issue
I put "S.S." into the ship callsign box when I started the game. This prefix "S.S." appears before other ships that I construct like supply ships, constructors, colony ships and the premade military ships. The prefix "S.S." does not appear before any of the custom ships I made in the ship creation screen. I had the same problem in Galactic Civilization 4 with huge ships. Galactic civilization 4 supernova ship prefix does not seem to work for custom ships currently. Supernova is still in early release so hopefully it gets fixed sometime this year.
