Something weird is happening here.. please take a look.

https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Karakaz/ ... sion/21158

I added some lines in color-picker/control.lua to see what the parameters in to raise_event were:

Code: Select all

local function raise_event(which_event, params)
	[...]
	log(type(which_event) .. " : " .. type(params))
	
	for name,element in pairs(params) do
		log(name .. ", " .. type(element) .. ":" .. tostring(element))
	end
	
	script.raise_event(which_event, params)
end

Code: Select all

  68.513 Script @__color-picker__/control.lua:42: number : table

Thanks for the report. I'm not seeing a crash. I see a lua error indicating you tried to pass a function through the event system which isn't supported and the game exited to the main menu.

Posted: **Fri Nov 17, 2017 10:06 pm**

My bad, updated the title now. It doesn't seem there is a function there, at least not in the first level of the params

Posted: **Fri Nov 17, 2017 10:37 pm**

Modify the function and post the result:

Code: Select all

local function raise_event(which_event, params)
   [...]
   log(type(which_event) .. " : " .. type(params))
   
   print(serpent.block(params)) -- this
   
   script.raise_event(which_event, params)
end

Also the search function on github can't find any mention of "raise_event" on your repository ...?

Posted: **Sat Nov 18, 2017 9:00 am**

Code: Select all

  58.323 Script @__color-picker__/control.lua:44: {
  {
    name = 152,
    tick = 5826223
  },
  color = {
    b = 0.6,
    g = 1,
    r = 0.2
  },
  container = {
    __self = "userdata: 0x00007f67987d92d0"
  },
  hex_color = "33FF99",
  player_index = 1
}

Thanks for that function

No, the code is from Mooncat's ColorPicker mod

There doesn't seem to be a function reference in there.. It is strange because it doesn't cause en exception when it is just mine and his working together. It is happening when there are certain other mods present.

Well. As long as you can reproduce the error you might be able to find out where the function comes from. As i don't even know when or with what parameters raise_event is called there. And Mooncat doesn't seem to have a github so i can't check myself right now.

Moved to modding help

I'm not seeing a crash, and Lua errors aren't bugs

If the game fully crashed because of the Lua code, please attach the full crash log here, with a code snippet that can reproduce the crash

Posted: **Sat Nov 18, 2017 10:09 pm**

The first argument is the number 152 (from script.generate_event_name())

The second argument is the table i posted before:

Code: Select all

{
  {
    name = 152,
    tick = 5826223
  },
  color = {
    b = 0.6,
    g = 1,
    r = 0.2
  },
  container = {
    __self = "userdata: 0x00007f67987d92d0"
  },
  hex_color = "33FF99",
  player_index = 1
}

There are no functions being sent into raise_event which is why this is so strange and why I think it should be considered as a bug and looked into by the developers.

To reproduce the exception, see Lezreth's last comment here https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Karakaz/ ... sion/21158

The instructions in that discussion do not reliably reproduce the error you say you're getting. Please provide additional info if you still need help. Steps i tried:

Install two mods from mod portal (color-picker_0.4.4.zip, railway-painter_1.0.2.zip)
Load existing factory savegame
Research "Railway Painter"
Click the lower one of the two new GUI buttons that appeared (tooltip is "Toggle Railway Painter Config")
Click "New"
Randomly click various of the color matrix tiles
No error

Posted: **Sun Nov 19, 2017 10:19 am**

I'll list the whole process to anyone who wants to reproduce it:

1. Download both savegame and mods from https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing
2. Navigate to .factorio directory
3. Place Atarashi no Sekai.zip under saves
4. Rename mods folder to something else temporarly
5. Place the mods folder from mods.zip into .factorio directory
6. Run factorio and load 'Atarashi no Sekai' save game
7. Open RailwayPainter gui
8. New
9. Click a color
10. Error appears

With these steps, it seems obvious that it is probably an error somewhere on your side

To reproduce we will need a simple command we can copy paste to reproduce the error, to reduce any other variables

Ye, I know.. I'm just a bit frustrated because I can't figure it out, that's all

In any case, the error message isn't that helpful. Only reasonable explanation I can think of is that the exception originates deeper than the visible stack trace since there isn't a function being sent into raise_event.

Perhaps the third mod have created a function with the same id as the one color-picker is trying to raise. I don't know if that's even possible though..

Bleh. I'm frustrated too now because i was actually stupid enough to waste lots of time on doing your work.
a) Downloading a huge modpack from a hosting service that is too fucking broken to show the file size before finishing download. had i know the thing was 200MB+ i wouldn't even have tried.
b) The modpack had half of the mods disabled in the first place. Please delete unnessecary garbage before uploading mods next time.
c) You didn't even bother to check if the bug occurs on a fresh map. Luckily i did, because i didn't want to risk downloading a whatever-MB sized map on a metered connection. →Yes, it errors on a fresh map too.
d) I still have no fucking clue why this is happening, but i know the minimum set of mods requried to reproduce this.

So. In order to make you learn something from this for next time i'm not gonna post the names of the other two mods required to reproduce this

. Instead i'm going to link you to the wikipedia article on Binary Search which will tell you how to narrow down the list of responsible mods from 100+ to four. Be prepared to toggle lots of mods on and off again and restarting factorio all the time

.

And maybe i'll have time to look at some of the code until you come back with the answer

----------------------------------------------
@Klonan: Would you be an angel and implement selecting more than one mod at a time for toggle on/off? Binary search is a pain when it needs two clicks to toggle each entry... (i can make a request post if required).

Posted: **Mon Nov 20, 2017 10:00 am**

Hehe initially I tried to disable some of the mods a couple of runs but there were so many so I couldn't be bothered. Didn't think of doing it using binary search, that's the way to go for sure and would have done it had I thought of it

Since you already have done it, let's not waste more time ay?

If you know which mods are causing the error, please don't hesitate to provide their names so we can investigate further.

Posted: **Tue Nov 28, 2017 10:37 pm**

I went through the whole toggle mods process and found that the minimum number of mods to recreate the issue, apart from Railway Painter and Color Picker, is Picker Extended and Squeak Through.

I tried a couple of different things and found this:

* Removing all the code from Squeak Through had no effect.
* I tried to check how ST was being used by PE by looking for it with grep and couldn't find where it was used.
* Then I removed the optional dependency from PE's info.json and it magically worked without the exception.
* After that I tried to remove all the code from PE but then the dependency didn't have any effect.

So to reproduce this: You need the four mods mentioned above. Removing ST from PE's optional dependencies toggles the exception somehow even if you have remove all the code from ST... something is really wierd here...

Posted: **Thu Nov 30, 2017 2:09 pm**

Could we move this back to bugs @Klonan?

Posted: **Thu Nov 30, 2017 2:32 pm**

Can you post a minimal save file and mods needed to reproduce the error? As a zip file.

Posted: **Thu Nov 30, 2017 2:53 pm**

No save file needed, only the four mods:

* Railway Painter
* Color Picker
* Picker Extended
* Squeak Through (Only the info.json needs to be present)

Removing/adding the optional dependency for Squeak Through in Picker Extended toggles the exception.

Railway Painter needs to be researched, then toggle the gui, create new rule and change color in the color picker interface.
