Anyone got any idea what this error message is about? I'm playing a mod with extra techs, components and resources, and I'm wondering whether there's something in the mod which could cause this problem.

You are not trying to merge maps, I assume?

Is it repeating? If it is you could consider to upload a save game and a short description on what to do to make i crash. You'll also have to upload the mod alongside it.

Hehe, I'm not sure I'd even know how to merge maps!

Is anyone looking at uploads at the moment? Haven't seen much feedback from Matrix for a few weeks now.

Haven't managed to get it to repeat, so perhaps it's a one off ...

I would think so, if it is a repeatable crash. It may also depend a bit on where it crashes, I guess.

As far as I have noticed, there has been crash fixes in every patch. If not repeatable, I believe Elliot can make a fix from the log (like the one you gave).
