[1.1.74]My game crashes when I try saving
1.What did you do?
My PC crashed a few days ago, because of DRAM. After this, the problem start to occur.
2.What happened?
I can't save my data due to the crash. See log below.

3.What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
Of course, I thought I could save normally.
4.Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
Always.
5.If you can reproduce the issue provide the exact steps!
This problem always happen at around 45:05:00 of my game. After that, I can't save. In other words, I can save normally until then.

I don't use any mods.
If I'm missing something, please let me know.

This save is my first world. So, I really want to save my save.

I hope you've repaired/replaced whatever hardware issue you encountered; Factorio has more trouble on bad hardware than most other games.


It crashes for me too, using 1.1.76, on a manual save just before the 45:05 mark. I've attached the most recent successful save.

I already fixed DRAM problem, but still happen...
Also I have two sub-computers, so I tried that too, but I can't save it well. Is the save data once corrupted useless...?

Yes; once it is corrupted it is corrupted forever. You will need an earlier save that isn't corrupt.

umm....This problem also occur by using an oldest autosave data. So, I have no data which the problem never happen...

Took a shot at salvaging the save. Managed to get it to keep saving at least until 45:10 (did not try any longer). It seems like corruption with the electrical network somewhere was causing the crash so i removed all the electrical poles and replaced them using the editor. Hopefully it will last you, but comes at the cost of achievements being disabled because the editor was used. Hope this helps and happy factory building!

Information that the electrical network is corrupted is very useful. The placement of my wire was really terrible, so it may be good to try to rework this. Thank you.

As you said, I removed the electrical network. Then there's no error. Thank you all very much
