Hi All
I have a game which I've been playing a while, going well. Recently I saved it, at the end of a session, but whenever I reload the game, it crashes after playing for 5 or 6 seconds.
Am using Simurans Ex 111.0 r10.11 and Pak128.Britain-Ex-0.8.3
The file is 7mb, I have a 7mb recent autosave which doesn't exhibit the same behaviour. Can email either/both if required.
Not sure if this is of interest or not. For my part i can just revert to the autosave, but the fact that the savegame runs, then crashes, makes me think it might be of interest.
Thank you for posting it - it is potentially of interest. Can you upload the file to http://files.simutrans-germany.com (http://files.simutrans-germany.com)?
Having trouble uploading... do I need to register seperately for that site?

Thank you for the report and the saved game - this is now fixed on the -devel branch.
Cool. Is it something that will recur at this point in the game again, if I revert to an earlier save?
If I have understood the problem correctly, it is unlikely to recur: it seems to be caused by deleting a station then deleting the ground tile on which it was situated before a convoy that has departed from that station has deposited all the passengers/goods that were picked up from that station at their destination.
Well that's good to know. Glad it's fixed, cheers James. :)
Hmm. The bug is recurring when I use a slightly earlier autosave, and resume gameplay and city editing (which does include deleting bus stops etc...). Is this because the bug is in the code for the game itself, until I update to the next release of experimental?
AP,
yes, the bug is in the code, which will be fixed in the next release.
