Crashes with 1.01.01 update

[Beorn]

Sadly, I started getting a whole lot of unexpected exception crashes, as soon as I applied the Steam update.  I can always re-load and select "continue" and the crash does not re-occur at the same point, but does again a couple turns later.  If you want a savefile, just let me know where to send it.

You can attach the save file to a post.

The same thing happens with the gog version, even without the launcher. The crashes were not reproducible until now and log.txt was always empty.

Edit: Oh, log.txt only works with debug mode enabled, ofc: Ctrl+Shift+S on the wizard screen.)

There were two crashes fixed for 1.1.2.

One was caused by AI cities shrinking to zero size due to bad terrain.
The other was caused by AI cities growing to very high (35-40 or higher) size.
Both were the result of allowing population to grow about 25.
You can probably find if these are related if you enable debug and check enemy city sizes.
For the large size crash, reducing the maximal population cap in modding.ini should also help.
I'm planning to send the update to Slitherine around next Monday.

Sudden crashes during the AI turns no longer occurred mid-game, so I guess that was it. 

But I found another way to crash the game: Scroll down "Advisors" until F10-F12, then press "Tax Collector", then select one of the incorrectly displayed advisors ... See attached image>

Maybe this was known, only I just stumbled across it.

Thanks, I've fixed this for the next update!

Hi @Seravy ,
didn't know where to put this bug report, cause the game only states "report it to the developers" with no further instructions.
So I'll just post it randomly in this thread.

I am on Update 1.01.02 (25.07.2021), and here's a savefile with the game constantly crashing when entering a fire node.
Take any unit from the stack (as seen in the screenshot, last active stack this turn) and enter the fire node to the bottom left of it.

I had to attach the savefile zipped, cause due to some reason the realms beyond forum interface didn't let me attach a  .sav  file.

Thanks for the bug report!
I've submitted a hotfix for this issue to Slitherine, it should be up in a few days at most.

Meanwhile, playing without the "Smart Familiar" score modifier can prevent the problem.
