[quote quoting="post"]- The Interstellar exchange culture star base upgrade isn't available in the update list after you research it.[/quote] No, but it's available before you research it... ;-) Seriously: when I was about to research that tech in my current game (Terran on large map, about 300 rounds), I wondered "Interstellar Exchange? Hm, but I just built those..." And indeed, my two culture stations already had that upgrade! So I didn't d

Oh yes, memory...! memtest86+ really is a good thing, try that! And give it enough passes.

If something makes your computer unintentionally boot you might have a hardware issue.

Once I had an Enermax power supply which worked great for nearly a year, but then reboots began to happen in 3D games.

Hmm... sounds reasonable. I wasn't aware that queued ship movement takes place at the end of a turn, I somehow used to believe the opposite. If you're right nothing but ship movement (and resulting battles?) would happen in the universe during that "turn gap", and it would also mean that all of the three effects I noted must always happen at the same time.

Like allie-cat suggested, it's also my impression that this is related to ships switching to idle after a move with movement points left. However, in my game this seems to not only affect the refresh of movement points, but also building and research. Sometimes you get a new turn, you have to click through your idle ships an
