[0.17.66] Crash on Lua error in on_chunk_generated

I'm starting a new mod that needs a custom map on it's own surface. I did something wrong so when you press the "PB Editor" button and it starts to generate the map it gets a Lua error. But then the game crashes.
5514.184 Script @__PersistantBlueprints__/control.lua:169: map_chunk_generated([-96, -96]-[-64, -64])
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'ScriptEventException'
what(): The mod Persistant Blueprints caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.
Looks like the async map generation fails to catch Lua exceptions.

Looks like its a mod problem:
Code: Select all
Error while running event PersistantBlueprints::on_chunk_generated (ID 12)
__PersistantBlueprints__/control.lua:188: attempt to index local 'entity' (a number value)
stack traceback:
__PersistantBlueprints__/control.lua:188: in function <__PersistantBlueprints__/control.lua:156>

__PersistantBlueprints__/control.lua:118: in function 'editor_button_clicked'

Moving to not a bug

Looks like its a mod problem:
If you read the log, you will see that is showed "unexpected error", not the normal mod error dialog. However, I cannot reproduce this.

I can reproduce it every time here.
Start factorio:
Code: Select all
0.000 2019-09-01 11:11:45; Factorio 0.17.66 (build 46866, linux64, alpha)
0.000 Operating system: Linux
1.036 Checksum of PersistantBlueprints: 4126365630
Select Play -> Scenarios -> Sandbox -> Create -> Play
The sandbox starts. Press <tab> and click the "PB Editor" button.
The game crashes due to:
Code: Select all
surface.force_generate_chunk_requests()
Without that the normal mod error dialog is shown and the game survives the error in the mod.

Even following those steps, I cannot reproduce the unexpected error.

Do you have multiple CPU cores? force_generate_chunk_requests() says it uses all threads so maybe it's a race condition which thread gets the LuaException first.

Windows 10 here. Couldn't get it to crash, but it had the same error as Bilka and booted me back to the main menu. I set all config thread options to 1 and set cpu affinity via cmd at launch to 1 core. It was noticeably slower to load the scenario map, but no crash. I forced the integrated gpu to do the rendering (still eventually passed through my dedicated gpu though) and still no crash. I don't have a linux machine to test on.
