[2.0.15] Crash when using map preview

Post by LaNc3Ic3 »

It ain't the first time I'm reporting this bug, apparently it was fixed at some point but I couldn't help myself from testin' it anyway. Similar to the first post, playing only vanilla Factorio.
  1. What did you do?
    1. Singleplayer -> New Game -> Freeplay
    2. Preview
    3. Randomise seed OR Update OR change a lot of map settings (do this step repeatedly, either slowly or quickly)
  2. What happened?
    If you press Randomise Seed or Update multiple times, regardless of whether you do it quickly or slowly, eventually it will crash.
  3. What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
    If pressing randomise seed, the preview for the new map should appear without crashing.
    If pressing Update, the preview should regenerate but not change if map settings have not been changed and should most definitely not crash.
  4. Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
    This crash occurs always. Tested it maybe half a dozen times now?
If I close the preview and press Random seed repeatedly, crash never occurs.
If I change map settings with preview closed, crash never occurs.
Current workaround is to open preview, close it, make changes as necessary (change map settings or randomise seed) then reopen to see new map preview.

[edit] Okay so, I managed to get it to crash just by opening the preview? Attached a log file to go with it.

Thanks for the report however I am unable to reproduce any issue here. I can spam the refresh and randomize button over and over and it works fine.

It’s possible there is still a game bug here but nobody has any solid reproduction steps and for the people that have had this issue have ended up having other hardware issues.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
