[2.0.5] Sanbox creation fails

Replication:
  1. Select Sandbox in scenario selection screen
  2. Use default settings
  3. Hit play
It would seem Sandbox worlds are not permitted or initialize-able at the moment. Any attempt to results in an error:

Code: Select all

The scenario level caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the scenario author.

Error while running event level::on_init()
__level__/sandbox.lua:148: attempt to index global 'global' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
	__level__/sandbox.lua:148: in function 'on_init'
	__core__/lualib/event_handler.lua:69: in function <__core__/lualib/event_handler.lua:64>
If this is intended or expected behavior during early access my apologies :)

Thanks for the report. This issue will fix itself automatically on 21st october. Sandbox scenario was removed in 2.0 so it should not be there. You only see it there as a side effect of steam default branch being set to 1.1.110 with expansion adding its own files overwriting stuff but not deleting files. Once steam default branch is set to 2.0, those files will dissapear.

Since this issue will be gone automatically once 2.0 will be officially out, i can move this to "fixed for 2.0" without taking any actions.

Hi there - wondering what the reasoning behind removing the sandbox scenario was - I can't recall a mention of it in an FFF and only just now found it in the changelog for 2.0. Is it so people don't rush ahead to see every planet without having to put in any of the legwork? :D

Thanks!

I think it is because editor mode and cheat mode are just better. `/editor` to toggle editor, and `/cheat` `/cheat off` to turn cheat mode on/off.
