Crash after a while using Bob's mod.

Post by R3DKn16h7 »

I have encountered a crash that appears from nowhere just moments after loading a specific save. I am playing on 0.15 with Bobs mods, all updated to the most recent version. In single player.

Reproduce:
load the save and wait a few moments

What:
the game disconnects with the message:
Oriented explosion (or beam) needs to target to be created.
and reverts back to the menu

I attach the save and the log. The log seems unhelpful, so is there some other log I need to include?

Hi
I have exactly the same issue.
It happens when poison mine (probably slowdown mine too) explode.
Lay down a poison mine and shot at it or wait for bitter to step on it.
It should result in error message.

I had to remove my poison mines in order to stop this error happening.
This is the only solution I can offer you atm.

Oooohhhh awesome, that mke sense since I've placed the mines just to test them out and forgot about them.

In that save I am far away from the mines, so I really must rush before the biters trigger them and remove them.

EDIT: now that you figured out where the problem is, I think I found the fix:

you need to replace

Code: Select all

    dying_explosion = "explosion-gunshot",
with

Code: Select all

    dying_explosion = "explosion-hit",
in "C:\Users\Yourname\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods/bobwarfaremodfolder/prototypes/entity/mine.lua"
