When upgrading a map made in 0.9.3 to 0.9.4, it seems that Filter Inserter settings are not migrated correctly.

Environment
Factorio Windows x64 0.9.4
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Other System Specs, if needed.

Reproduction Steps

1. In 0.9.3: Make a filter inserter transferring from a source of provider chests (e.g. an assembly machine or chest) to a provider chest in a Roboport's supply zone.
2. Set the filter inserter's logistic network condition to [Provider Chest] < 10 (or some other condition. MUST use provider chests as condition).
3. Save.
4. Restart Factorio, upgrade to 0.9.4.
5. Load map.
6. Right-click filter inserter created above.

Expected Behavior
Opens filter inserter settings dialog for editing.

Observed Behavior
Game crashes to desktop in all cases I've tried.

Workaround
Rebuild inserter.

Suggested Correction:
I know this is version specific, but it'd make sense to make the settings processing for filter inserters a bit more robust in case this happens again. A good way to do this would be to fall back to a blank setting if a problem is encountered.

Hello, thanks for the bug report. I tried to reproduce this, but without a success. Could you please post a link to the save?

Hello, it is fixed for 0.9.5, thanks for the report (Tomas was wrong about the non-reproducibility)
