[BUG, build 1307.12] Minimaps Crashing the Game

Post by artao5 »

I only just noticed this last nite. Today I decided to give it more testing.
Open the game. Open a save file (two plus an autosave attached below) OR open a brand new fresh scenario. I used A Helping Hand, 1979, which is included in the Standalone Scenarios; the very first one listed, for convenience. ;) (I have not tested with others as yet)
Hit play, then open any minimap -- tho the scenario map seems to do it most consistently -- and the game freezes an indeterminate amount of time, then crashes to desktop. This also happens if you first open a minimap and then hit Play. I am also attaching the exception log I got after enabling the "debug logging" feature.
All three files are in a single .zip, for convenience.

Game build - 1307.12
OS - Win 10 64-bit Pro
CPU - AMD FX6300
RAM - 16 gigs DDR3 1333
GFX - Radeon RX580 w/8gig VRAM
Audio - Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 2nd gen audio interface

It seems fine now with freshly loaded scenarios. However, it crashes with my current game save for Kobayashi Maru, which is quite unfortunate as I've done a lot of setting stuff up and it's one of the scenarios where the scenario mini-map in particular is very useful. I can totally just play it without the mini-map tho. I have tried several other saves and they're fine.
In my Kobayashi Maru save, I can bring up a mini-map with the game paused and leave it paused for any amount of time and the game doesn't crash. But moments after hitting play the game crashes. Conversely, if I load the save and let it play for any amount of time, it crashes moments after I open a mini-map.
Perhaps the scenario can be "fixed?" But also, as I said, I can play it just fine without mini-maps open.

Indeed not fixed. With the option Log debug information to file checked, a huge exception log file will be created.

Hey there,

I can confirm that the issue still affects rev 1328.15.

That Minimap could be so useful in some cases. :)
