yeah, I have done that a few times. I just won't mess with the time thing anymore. right now, I still have six villagers, level2 harvest and they still Have their bush. I figuresd out not to have them all farming because the bush will strip with only 2000 tech points. and not to breed them until you have level 2 harvest! the error message is when I try to dtart a new game it says fatal error , you must perform a soft restart. then the game is the same. it won't make a new game.
