[Genhis][2.0.76] Crash pasting richtext in combinator description

[Onii-ChanFL]

I was trying to use some richtext from https://wiki.factorio.com/rich_text in the description textfield of a combinator.

When I pasted

Code: Select all

[tooltip=pump]test[/tooltip]

inside it from my clipboard the game crashed.

I was only possible to achieve this crash when I tried using my original language German and not when I have the game on English but another user on discord said he was able to achieve the crash in English aswell. But I cannot garuantee it. It also seems sometimes a bit inconsistent, if text is already in there/overwritten with the paste or not and so on.

I pasted the mentioned lines inside of an arithmetic combinator description field.
Not sure if it is specific and required or not, but here a few more informations in case it isnt as consistent for you as for me.
My setup is as following:

• Game Version Build: 84451
• Mapversion: 2.0.76-0
• Scenario: freeplay
• Playtime: 219:45:00
• Filesize: 36 MB
• Mods:
  • base 2.0.76
  • elevated-rails 2.0.76
  • quality 2.0.76
  • space-age 2.0.76
• Character-State: On a spaceship
• Camera: Looking at spaceship with character
• Location of Spaceship: Aquilo
• Spaceship-State: Manual
• Object: Arithmetic combinator on spaceship open with open textfield to edit the description

Able to reproduce on Linux in English. Copy the text to your clipboard, paste into the combinator edit box, highlight the text in the box, and then re-paste. That should do it.

I tested the experimental version 2.0.77 as well.

This will occur with any string following this pattern:

[space-age]foo[/entity]

To reproduce:

• Place down any combinator
• Click "Add description", paste this string in (using Ctrl-V) and Save description
• Edit the description that you just made
• Highlight the entire description in the text box
• Paste the string again

--------------------

Some extra details:

• The first part of the string needs to be any valid rich-text element that doesn't require a closing tag.
• The word in the middle must be at least three characters. If you make it shorter, the crash doesn't happen, but the paste behaviour doesn't seem to respect the visually highlighted section being replaced.
• The closing tag can be any valid rich-text tag, so [/item] will trigger it (and show as red) but not [/foo]

Thanks for the report, it's fixed for the next release. This seems to be the same issue like 133343.
