Hi @yshan
Heh… 
So, I tried selling most things (leaving enough food, etc so they don’t starve) to get the file size down, and compressed it again. 11 MiB. D’oh.
Then I butchered my poyo and sheep, got rid of pastures, trapper areas and half the farms; and gave them a little while to collect more stuff, and sold almost everything. This caused the military to start patrolling. D’oh.
Looks like the game was just struggling with my little temporary base (I haven’t even started building anything yet).
I was lazy earlier and didn’t provide system information (oops). I’m running the game on a computer with a 3.4 GHz Core i7 4770 and 32 GiB of RAM (and Windows 8.1).
I’ve uploaded the original (16.2 MiB) file to Google Drive now. Link is: 1467398480866.zip - Google Drive
Thanks
