Hi,

to check whether the problem is in the current data or in the history data, try removing the chartX.cc file (copy game directory, delete that file, check whether issue is still there). If the issue goes away, the problem was in the history data; if you can live with losing history, you have now fixed it...

If the issue does not go away, the problem is still in the current data. One possibility would be that a ship has a strange Primary Enemy. I don't know how this can happen, but sometimes HOST does strange things. The easiest way to fix a bad Primary Enemy is to use Global Actions to set all ships' PE to "none"; there are other possibilities using the scripting language.

You can send me the file(s) so I can help you sanitizing it.

I actually find it interesting that Host 3.14 is still in use. I have a bunch of test cases with it, but I haven't used in a game for a LONG while. It is lacking some features that Host 3.2 has, and neither of the PCCs is guaranteed aware of that.
