I changed to ghost controller with

/c game.player.set_controller{type=defines.controllers.ghost}

then open the permissions window with

Code: Select all

/permissions

Changing permissions in this state does not apply and you can not close the permissions window
I got out of the state by changing the controller type via command again

Thanks for the report. I was going to "Fix" this but after thinking about it more I think i'm going to leave this as is. The "ghost" controller is meant to be used when a player dies and is respawning. If a mod sets someone to it manually it "works" (as in doesn't crash) but otherwise may have other side effects like this.

If you want a view-only controller the spectator controller is what you're looking for.
