Ignore.
problem was between keyboard and chair.
true culprit not found, but disabling 5 unneeded mods that were crashing fixed it

crash on opening any armor with equipment grid, even new game.

install is heavily modded, multiple mods are said to be the cause of the crash when one is disabled, another becomes the reason.
what/how can I tell what the root cause mod is?
google fu for hours gives no help.
googling "doesn't contain key name" in quotes gives 0 results

errors read like, multiple mods:

Code: Select all

Error while running event REDACTED::on_tick (ID 0)
LuaEquipmentGrid doesn't contain key name.
stack traceback:
	__REDACTED__/libs/control/gui.lua:xx: in function 'playerOpenGui'
	__REDACTED__/libs/control/gui.lua:126: in function 'gui_tick'
	__REDACTED__/control.lua:49: in function <__REDACTED__/control.lua:47>

some of these mods are recently updated, so I dont think the function names changed, so what is going on here?[/size]

If you want to know which mod/mods is/are doing that, you shouldn't remove the mod name from the error message.

Maybe the mod's name is REDACTED? I know... I know...

The true culprit is one (or a combination of) the mods you disabled. These are mods that need to be updated because of API changes.

The problem between the chair and the computer should post a list of those mods so those respective authors can look into fixing them. Don't worry nobody will be mad at you for posting mod bugs in the modding help forum
