I started a new game with the 1.3 Opt-In 2 and it was going along ok until it got stuck on a turn. This is different from the other "Idle Ship" stuck turns as I can't save the game while it's stuck. I reloaded and manually used up all ship movements and even decommissioned ships that were stationed at planets and the shipyard, then saved it.
If I hit the Turn button, the AI ships will move, but the game will not progress. Also, if I hit "Exit", the window will close, but the game stays running in the background until I open the Task Manager and end the task.
Here's the savegame. If you're not familiar with Google Drive, there's a download button on the top center of the page.

<edit> The game is unplayable. Stuck forever on "Wait" for the second game in a row. Again, I had to end task in order to stop it from running. </edit>

<edit> Changed title to SOLVED </edit>
Thanks! Ill go try it right now. How are you getting the turns to complete correctly?
Edit: game loads but as soon as I try to do anything (press button in bottom right, or try to colonize) it CTDs immediately
Tried a new game tonight, with the new patch, and I got a stuck turn again
Then I tried to retire and I got a CTD.

Also, clicking on "retire", than "mainmenu" gives me a CTD.
It's too late for me to try anything else and I'm gonna see Metallica tomorrow night, so won't have time before the week-end to retest it. This game had some mods, my custom race, some custom ship designs and custom races from Steam Workshop. I'll have to try without mods of any kind if I have the same problem.
Hay thank man for going to the trouble, obviously it worked for you, wonder why not for for me. Its late now, will give it a run tomorrow and let you know
My game also sticks on turn 777 (lucky turn?).
1.3.1 opt-in.
Exiting the game leaves the process hanging around and I have to end task to finally kill it.
Here's the save:
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=253FFBD6F10FFD8C!25661&authkey=!AF9RL2MSNZqmaaI&ithint=file%2czip
I was just loading it and hitting the turn button. Sorry about the CTD. I don't know why that happened, but it might be because I don't have all of the DLC downloaded. I only have the Snathi DLC enabled in Steam. I'll enable all of them and try again this evening.
Well, I decided to roll back from the opt-in to see if I could continue my game that I've already invested many hours into. Of course my save games from 1.31 don't work with 1.3 but I was fortunate enough to still have a save game from right before installing 1.31. Loaded that up and saw I was only 6 turns away from the spot that kept locking up. I was able to easily go past that point. So the good news is, I still haven't lost my game and 1.31 seemed to cause more trouble with this stuck turn bug for me than 1.3 has so far. We'll see how far I can get before it happens again.
Yeah I tried that, rolling back to a save file 2-3 turns away, still eventually broke though at the same spot. Sigh.
Drop a link to the save after my post here and I'll send them over to pshaw. Thank you!!

I also have ticket IDN-366-67845 open with the file attached there.
Well buddy it worked! . Very strange though. My saves (with stuck turn) FROM 1.3, running under 1.3.1 were still stuck after a few turns. I downloaded both your "fixed" files and ran under 1.3.1; they worked (at least for 5 turns) . You must have some voodoo working for you
I failed to mention this but that's what mine does also
here is another file started in 1.3 and gets stuck at turn 150

That's too bad. I've been able to continue on for another 20+ turns past my stuck point with 1.31 since going back to 1.3.
Hey folks
We've fixed a stuck turn problem and updated the opt-in.
BUT it did not work 100%. See my save after 1.3.1
Thanks for the quick patch to the patch. this one fixed the 3 stuck save games i had
MottiKhan - you can put the SOLVED back in the title

Awesome deal!
No change here, game still goes boom.
Give me a few minutes to download the DLC and I'll give it another try.
In the mean time, can you verify your Steam GalCiv3 Integrity Cache? (Go to your library, right click on GalCiv3, go to Properties, click on Verify Integrity of Game Cache.)
<edit> I got it past the stuck turn, but kept going for two more turns to troubleshoot it. I got a CTD on the second turn when I tried to move a fleet. I don't think I can help you on this game. Sorry. </edit>
Thanks for trying! Yes I verified game integrity after having the latest optin installed just to make sure its all there.
Since this thread has served its purpose, I'll go ahead and lock it so it can sink into oblivion. Thanks everyone for your replies and help and thanks to the devs for the fixes.
