Starsector crashes when my fleet enters hyperspace i.e. right after the screen transitions from regular space to hyperspace. Extract from log file as follows:

Code

Any ideas?

This is a vanilla bug.  PM Alex to move it to the correct section.

[Alex]

This is already fixed in vanilla. The issue comes up when there are no pirate markets at all in the Sector; for the moment if a mod makes this condition possible, it should probably also either replace the MarketProcurementMissionEvent code or add a dummy pirate market somewhere.

[Dark.Revenant]

By bug in vanilla I typically mean the code path breaks in the API or engine without explicitly being given incorrect inputs.  Ideally it would fail and print an error in the log rather than crash.

[Alex]

Oh, yeah, I totally agree that it's a bug in vanilla. Didn't mean to imply it wasn't; just pointing out the cause and possible workaround until the next release.

Thanks guys, that makes sense, as I had just wiped out the last Pirate market.

Galactic justice – was it worth it?

[Weltall]

Lesson from the crash; Balance should be kept. There is no good without evil!

[Histidine]

In the meantime you can use the console command setmarketowner <market> pirates to return the pirates to the Sector.

I think either SS+ or DynaSector also fixes the bug?

[Dark.Revenant]

Nope, SS+ just changes the creator script, not the event itself.

Thank you.
