[Bug] Overlapping Events/Windows

Somewhat maddening

I'd imagine this has been reported before, but I'll post it anyways.

Very often you get overlapping events and windows in the game.

For ex, you click to battle something and suddenly the research results window pops up, then the battle screen comes up, you click auto-resolve, pick your tech, then battle results pop up then next tech select pops up and basically what you get are alternating windows for 2 different events that have multiple windows

I've even had 3 events with alternating windows if a battle, spell, and tech all hit at the same time.

Now, I'm a god of computing so other than this being idiotic, I'm able to multi-task and hop between the various windows flying all over the place. But it is kinda silly and I'd imagine it's confusing as hell to newer players and mere mortals.

I'm not sure if this only happens when auto end turn is enabled (which is the game's default that I leave as is).

If you can provide an autosave from the turn before this happens, it should help the devs resolve the issue.

Um, I'll see what I can do but I'm pretty much done with this game til early-mid and onward performance is addressed. I'm tired of the slide-show and the cloth map doesn't suit me.

I do have the game set to autosave every turn since it crashes so much. :/

A similar issues is that sometimes if I have mulitiple armies (early on I'll just have sov+crew active, later I'll have firstborn running a second army) and I engage combat with one army, focus shifts away to the other army before the battle screen ever appears. If I reselect the first army combat might kick in, or it'll eventually happen before my turn ends. It's pretty bizarre.

Nobody else experiences this stuff?!

The issue I described above happens all the time in my games. It is common. Seems like even with auto end turn disabled it was still happening. ANY time multiple events with windows strike at the same time I'll get interspresed back and forth between the events, usually alternating between them, til I wrap up the events. BOOM intiate combat, new tech hits, select the new tech, battle window pops up - click auto-resolve, window to select next tech branch to research pops up - select and click, battle resolution window pops up - that kind of sequence is very common.
