[0.13.13] No entity prototypes are available crash

[Kerolm]

Running into a crash a few minutes after starting. I tried turning off all the mods (rail tanker and waterwell) with no apparent effect. It still crashes with a dialog and message "No entity prototypes are available for this building." with it kicking back out the menu.

I'll need the save, please.

Did you cut the log at the end for some reason?

[Kerolm]

That is the whole log. I'll try to upload the save.

This is the game that crashes. It seems to crash regardless of mods.

It could be the same bug, was it ever fixed and is there a workaround?

It is supposed to be fixed. If you don't look for achievements you could run:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces["enemy"].kill_all_units()

once and it should at least postpone the error for some time if not fix it entirely.

Thank you for the tip. It unfortunately had no effect, or very little. The game still crashed shortly after loading.

Try 1: One time killing units, no effect
Try 2: Tried periodically (every minute or so) still crashed, perhaps a bit later but I don't think so.

It was fixed.

Your map has negative evolution factor, which causes the error to appear. Have you ran some commands in your map?

As a workaround for your case you can run command

Code: Select all

/c game.evolution_factor = 0.1

but if something is decreasing evolution factor (which it shouldn't), it can go to negative numbers again.

EDIT: Oh, I see your command history now!

[Rseding91]

Fixed for 0.13.14 by not allowing negative numbers through the Lua API. You'll need to set the evolution factor back to a non-negative number on your map with the console.

[Kerolm]

Thanks for the update. I'll adjust it locally for now to avoid the crash.
