I'm getting a crash when hovering over the top panel research area. Using EUI, all downloaded from the latest version. I've cleared the cache and mod user data.
 
Like with Elhoim, bringing the cursor to the top left corner (The research one I believe, I don't know if the others also cause a CTD.) cause the game to CTD.

So I just started a game. Zulus had a land ship. I'm guessing that's a bug.

I started a game where Ethiopians had some sort of horsey unit that seemed too advanced for them (sorry, I didn't pay attention to the name of the unit...but the icon seemed like it wasn't just a regular horseman or anything), and then a few turns later, they had a landship.

After that game crashed to desktop, I decided to play another, and within a few turns, the Romans had the same advanced horsey guy.

I don't have any logs (at the time, I blamed the problem on Cultural Diversity or some other mod...plus, the games keep crashing in the early turns), but it seems like there is something that is causing AI to have advanced units, and which may be upgrading them to even more advanced units.

It's the Russian Cossack. It comes from ExCE's Cossack Tribe, which allows you to build Cossacks should you have that Tribe within your borders. When the game begins, it selects the strongest available unit. Normally, this is the Warrior, but in ExCE it is the Cossack. I had made a cheap workaround for this, but it appears to have broken (with or without CBP, I'm not sure). However, I've implemented a better workaround in the next version - I just need to finish that version before updating. For the time being, I recommend disabling Tribes in the included user settings file.

CulDiv doesn't really change gameplay. Most of it's features are configured and applied before game start, so it shouldn't be the source of any crashes. I don't know about ExCE, but I've had very stable games with it.

yep, cossack was the one.

And sorry for the confusion on CulDiv. I was meaning to go back and see if Ethiopia or Rome had some sort of cultural start with a mounted unit (but then I thought that it wouldn't make sense for Rome and Ethiopia to be in the same group), but the ExCE explanation makes more sense.

The crashes seem to be something else entirely though...I will see if I can look through logs.

I don't think it is the CP - I think it's an issue with EUI and Really Advanced Setup (or perhaps a menage a trois with CP as well). Reason? The minidumps always crash out of a lua stack, which means it is LUA that is breaking.

Any RAS users reporting bugs in the EUI thread?

Really Advanced Setup is in my modlist but isn't enabled and hasn't been for many games. I keep forgetting to get rid of it...

Would having it in my modlist but not enabled still cause issues? It's the only thing I can think of that's similar.

It can, yeah.

Yeah, the issue was with RAS... Oh, well, I wasn't using the extra options that much!

BTW, I know it's not a bug, but are any of the mods in my list already included? I didn't see them on the list on the changelog, but asking just in case.

Mostly asking about Global - City States No Allied Skirmishes and Faster Aircraft Animations, I think those two should be part of the CBP, IMO. City State Airbases would be cool as well.

Thanks for your hard work!
