[Fixed][1328.8] - Scenario Stops Running and Causes Other Scenarios Not To Run Without Computer Restart

[henry1611]

Hello All,

I recently did a clean install up to 1.06.1328.8. I had been able to use CMO just fine until a scenario reached the point in the attached save. The game froze entirely and I had to close CMO through the Task Manager. (Task Manager - Power Usage "Very High.") I started CMO again and reloaded the attached scenario. I was able to select units and use the menus this time, but the scenario still would not run. What is worse, other scenarios would load but not run after I loaded the attached scenario. A computer restart was necessary to get other scenarios to run, but the attached scenario still does not run and causes the same problem with other scenarios. The same result with the autosave.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Load attached scenario and try to run.
2. Load another scenario and try to run.

Computer Specs:

Windows 10 64-bit
i7-9700K
16GB RAM
RX 5600 XT

Thank you for the report,

This issue is somewhat pressing, as it occurs very frequently and effectively makes the game unusable.

If more savegames are needed to reproduce and track down this bug, please let me know.

Hi Amselfass,

if you can attach the .save and the ExceptionLog would be helpful

Thank you

Unfortunately, the problem is not guaranteed to occur at a specific time in a specific save. In the attached save, the clock is very likely to freeze within the first minute of loading, but not always at the same second.

The exception log (also attached) is then spammed with:

Code: Select all

23/08/2023 18:00:00 -- B1328.8 -- Index was outside the bounds of the array. -- Scen : Black Tiger I, 2015 -- DB :  --

I already posted about the same problem in May. Back then, I only encountered this bug very rarely, but in the current version, it is so frequent that it is a complete showstopper.

I am having the same problem. Two scenario saves both with this issue attached and one exception log. The simulator is unplayable with this issue, so I hope it can be fixed soon.

Is this still happening under B1328.9 ?

[aceydog2]

I'm on steam and seem to be version 1328.7, it just updated a day or two ago. The problem seems to be gone for me.

Is this still happening under B1328.9 ?

Has so far not occured in 1328.9. Thanks for the fix!
