Game Won't Stop Crashing :/
« on: March 19, 2020, 09:03:38 AM »

Hi, so I've been playing Starsector for about 3 months. About a month ago I decided to start playing with mods and have had zero issues with the game. However, last night I was just casually going to destroy a pirate base that was harassing my colonies until I got an error: Fatal Null. I've read through different forums with the same issue as I, but nothing has yet to work. I've tried restarting my computer, changing to every resolution that the app allows me, shutting down every app on my computer (just discord running in the background), playing without sound, and changing the allowed memory usage.

My computer is a 64-bit system and I run the game on 2gb (Xms2048). I did, however, attempt to record the error in progress which seems to be crashing on a sheer amount of intel spam (sometimes it's normal, and sometimes lower relations SFX). I then played around a bit, trying to prevent intel like just simply diving into hyperspace or hyperwarping away from the system, as well as breaking the comm relay.



I also tested out wheater this was affecting the whole game or just that save, so I decided to start up a new game and played for an hour... No crash. Is that playthrough done for or can it be fixed?

Hi - this does look like a crash related to comms messages. It's hard to say exactly what the error is, though - possibly it's referring to an invalid font? Not 100% sure, though. The stack trace also, unfortunately, doesn't make it clear which mod this message is coming from.

I looked above the errors and it appears to be the Nexerelin mod causing all the messages.

Since I can't disable it on this save what should I do?

I don't think it's necessarily Nex - it's logging a lot of stuff, but it doesn't mean that it's responsible for the UI message that crashes the game.

I'm not sure what to suggest - maybe someone with more experience with specific mods might be able to see if anything in your modlist looks dodgy.

I believe I figured out a solution. So, I started up a new game and went through it until it happened again. It only happens when I was apart of an alliance so I used console command to disform the alliance and commission with one of the factions in it. Maybe it has something to do with a diplomatic event of some sort?

Ah - I believe this is actually resolved by the most recent version of Nexerelin!

I wonder if I am having the same issue. Mine is over an hour into the game after diplomacy has started to work. Nexerelin is 0.9.6c in my mods folder. Right now I can't really get further into the game.

Is it the same error? Post the log message.
