Better forum search for modders: Enclose your search term in quotes, eg. "font_color" or "custom-input" - it prevents the forum search from splitting on hypens and underscores, resulting in much more accurate results.

Re: [0.14.14] Crash on startup
It happened again, log file attached.
Only things that changed recently are: update to 0.14.14 and also installed load of Bob's mods (although most of them are currently disabled). Also, doing some work on my own mod so that could be potential cause?
When it crashes, screen looks like this:

The crash occurs at the point when the main menu would normally be displayed.
Like previous crash, subsequent attempts have been error-free.

Done 
Will let you know if there are any more crashes. With the modding, I'm restarting factorio > 50 times per day so shouldn't take too long to see if it's helped.

50+ launches of Factorio over the past day and no recurrence of the crash. It seems the launch param has solved the issue
