I'm not sure if my game is bugged or it's bugged in general but I can't build Force shield without breaking the game. As soon as I build Force shield I can't load any saved game, every single save done after building Force shield is broken, all I see after trying to load save is either complete black screen or white screen with a little bit of black, and dev console pop up with like a million errors, if I don't build force shield, everything is just fine.
You Sir, are a genius! Really. You saved my colony...
I had exactly the same problem.. (and all saves overwritten while realizing it does not work anymore)
After searching a cause in the savefile for about 3 hours i gave up.
You however now mentioned its the ForceShield Building and with that approach i created a new colony built the force shield and saved...
Long story short (sorry.. im just happy it worked)
You can correct that. In opening the save with notepad++ and just delete the built force shield out of the map
The lines to delete (in my case the fortress shield i built):

Hope that helps others as well.
