[0.9.8] game crashes while loading save game

[Kantario]

Hey community,

as I was looking through the forum to see if this bug is already known, I found out that it happened in earlier versions but apparently not in this one yet.

I have a playtime of about 6 hours on my savegames (own as well as autosaves) and after i saved before attacking a base (and died), I tried to load a savegame (doesn't matter which one as the problem occurs every time) and the game crashed on me.

Factorio.exe has stopped working

As this is a problem which already occurred in a previous version, I thought the fix would be the same (downloading a new version) but unfortunately that didn't work.

Edit: A redownload and reinstallation while using the same savegames has not fixed the problem either.
Also, starting a new game works just fine.

I think it'd help if you uploaded your save somewhere and posted a link to it.

I experience a very similar bug using Factorio 0.9.8 (Build 9400, linux64) on Ubuntu 14.04 x64 with the MESA Radeon video drivers on a Core 2 Duo E8300 with 8 GB RAM and a Radeon HD 4670 with 512 MB VRAM. The attached save was saved at the very start of level 2 in the new hope campaign. Factorio will consistently segfault whenever I try to load this save. Loading autosaves from level 1 works fine.

A GDB backtrace (not very useful because of the lack of symbol information):

Code: Select all

Hello, thank you for the report, it was just fixed for 0.10

Fixed unloadable save with train in station with no stations left in schedule.
