[kovarex] [0.17.49] Crashing when building rails/signals after clearing cliffs

Post by Rynowm »

My game seems to crash when I'm trying to build new rails where cliffs once were. I have a few Bob's mods (Not all) in my world.

It seems to happen when I:
  1. Use cliff explosives to clear the cliffs that are marked for deconstruction. Can be done using three explosives.
  2. Build rails over the ghosts that have already been placed.
  3. Build signals where the intersections are.
However, the moment I select a chain signal is when the game suddenly crashes. By select, I mean pressing 'Q' (Default) when my empty cursor is hovering over one of the ghost chain signals.

Here is the log from my latest game, it's unusually unfinished: https://pastebin.com/PqbJN5Wq I saved the game just before trying to place the signals.
Here is an image (Night time) of my rail and signal placement just before the crash: Image
You can see the holes from the cliff explosives I used earlier. Three of them are on or close to rails, the fourth is just using my last explosive.

So... If the game keeps crashing when I'm trying to build/'grow my factory'... It's literally just unplayable.

Log is corrupted (you opened factorio before pasting content of factorio-current.log).

Can you provide:
1/ log after crash but before running factorio again?
2/ save-file?

The log does not show a crash, if you can reproduce this, then post your save and describe what to do please.

1/ I'm afraid the log provided is the latest one I can find on my PC. (As of writing this.)
2/ That, I can do. See the attachment:

Simply select one of the signals using 'Q' after placing the rails where there are ghosts. I've actually tried to do this about three or four times.

Hello, I loaded the save, and I didn't see any ghost rails to build over, and I couldn't encounter any crash, so I'm moving it to pending.
