Actually, I am stupid!  That 'epic' game was actually a loaded game which caused the game to resort to the old settings.  It was not 999 turns, just the regular amount  :-[ I think that 999 is sufficient but I will keep on experimenting.  I realise that I am replying to myself here but thats ok, I do that a lot.

No worries, chaos is a very fun game and the samples are simply hilarious. Good to know my hack made at least one person happy :)
