anyways Terraforming Mars hardly lasts more than 3 hours. I’ve had games at it that lasted 1h45’. It needs that everybody prepare their turn on other player’s turns, and when it’s up to you, you just execute what you planned.

I own most of the titles in the list, and they definitely forgotten about Imperial Steam.

so, you put it in storage mode (or shipping mode) to fix it? that’s definitely weird. maybe it’s doing something to reset some hardware configuration? like, it’s expecting to be serviced so it resets what it knows on its own hardware? it would be weird though, I don’t get what could change hardware wise that it’s not already managed by a normal firmware/bios.
