Fatal: Null, crash. Main culprit: Nexerlin (???)
« on: September 11, 2019, 09:46:37 PM »

I'm not really knowledgeable when it comes to identifying these sorts of errors but I think this has something to do with Nexerlin (???).
I tried updating all of my mods but that did not seem to work. I don't know what to do after that so if anyone can help I'd be very much grateful! :D


I think it's also worth knowing that I did some tinkering with the game files, specifically I made the Radiant class boardable by removing the code that doesn't allow me to do so.  8)

Here's a screenshot of all my mods:
 
Here's a snippet of the starsector.log that shows the error:

Did you get the error after ordering an agent to lower relations? If so, what was the faction that controlled the market where the agent was, and what was the target faction?

If not, were you doing anything in particular at the time of the crash? Did you change the base game's settings.json?

(It's hard to see how this crash could have happened in either case...)

I didn't get the error from ordering an agent to lower relations. I got the error when I go to the Intel screen. The game still runs, as long as I don't go to the Intel screen. I don't know why

Also, I didn't change anything in the settings.json file.

If you zip and upload your save somewhere I could investigate what's going on.

Okay, seems one of the agents was lowering relations with no third faction specified. How this could have happened is beyond my ability to figure out right now, but you can fix it by editing campaign.xml in Notepad++ or similar:


Right now, lines 323270-323271 look like this:
Code: xml
<daysRemaining>70.64815</daysRemaining>
<relation2>0.0</relation2>
Change them to
Code: xml
<daysRemaining>70.64815</daysRemaining>
<thirdFaction cl="Faction" ref="11797"></thirdFaction>
<relation2>0.0</relation2>

Or download and extract this.

I tried to use your file; it didn't work. So I tried to manually change the code like you said.
It worked to say the least!

Right now, I'm just trying to figure out what I did wrong so it wouldn't happen again.

But other than that, thank you kind sir!
