Okay, so, this being my first actual forum post, it's probably going to be a bit of a strange read, but I may have just soft-locked one of my saves.
For context, this specific save was taken to test out a strategy I discovered from a Spiffing Brit video, detailing how you could quite literally just hold the entirety of the Galatia star system hostage by learning to transverse-jump early in the game. After quite a long period of time (not sure of the exact amount), in which I did naught but buy surplus goods to sell at Ancyra, while trying to fit some Tempests and an Omen for some combat potential, I jump back into Galatia to discover that the colony at Ancyra is, in all definitions of the term, dead.
Dead as hell.
No shoes on in the casket at all.
Naturally, I was quite confused, so I tried stabilizing the jump point, since that's the bit of the tutorial I was at. Tells me to report back to Ancyra. Problem with that, Ancyra is less of a colony, more of a nice cluster of ruins I scavenged through.
Honestly, at this point, I'm unsure where to actually take this save, since I'm pretty sure I'm locked in tutorial mode forever. Might start up a new one another time if I feel like it. The legacy of Tommy Warcrimes has to end with him straight up proxy-collapsing a civilization.
