There is a bug in the current Windows 10 store version of the game that is causing this. It will be addressed in v0.57.0. In the meantime, Desktop users are free to download the non-Windows Store desktop client, which generally performs better anyway and does not have the same glitch: https://market.ape-apps.com/my-colony.html
Ver. 0.57
Unable to play on any platform. Whenever i try to load the save file it simply says "Unable to connect to game server."
I'm thinking the server auto-banned my colony but i have no idea why. It's my most advanced and has around 400k pop. Interestingly enough only colonies with over 200k pop were hit. All my others have under 200k and they are fine.
