When changing the vision_distance in the prototypes to somewhere around 50000 the game crashes when starting a new map.

What happens is the game goes on a rampage on your RAM and then crashed without any message. (but your RAM is maxed out)

when combining this with : https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... =7&t=13420 (so both are present)
the game even crashes your pc (yes it did, black screen, unresponsive and then reboots the pc)

sound like a massive error to me.

Maybe limit the vision_distance? (but i want a unit with high vision distance (50.000+) so it will always immediately attack)

error log with vision_distance:

error vision distance

error vision distance and autoplace empty table

both errors are the same basically

I think you just managed to destroy the pathfinder

think i destroyed factorio itself

My pc couldnt handle it, and then rebooted because even the system processes were shut down xD

thanks for the report. I added a upper bounds check to the number so it won't load if it's too large.
