(bug) Ironman late game. New faction crashes the game.

[Frozenfinn]

So i am at year 2500 just before endgame crysis with over 3k pop empire and about 20 years ago new faction was created and if i closed the window that informs me about the faction game crashes instantly.

But by not pressing it i have been able to postpone it until now as it will accept it without me doing anything.

Is there a fix coming because i really would like to finish my game into which i have sunk so many hours.

2.2.2 version without megacorp dlc

I could try to alter the save and 'hack' the window closed, but can't get to it for several hours. Also could not guarantee it wouldn't still crash.

Beta patch 2.2.4 came out recently. Right click Stellaris in your library and go to properties>betas and switch to the Stellaris open beta version. Not all's well, but a lot was fixed, so maybe it will help? And that patch will be updated next week.
