Was running and placing the big electric pole then the game just froze and crashed (log file below)

This is also occurring for me since the latest update. Happens when dragging large power poles and you happen to drag over an object.

same. i tried to replicate it and restarted the game twice so now sadly the log is lost...

Seeing the same crash as of this morning.

Log file in case it helps:

Same thing happens with me.

Tested on different save files and locations.

From my testing i assume it comes from going over the same valid placement option again in a different direction.

Also leaving your building reach and entering it again seems to trigger it also.
Also dragging from an existing big pole to a free spaces triggers the error too.

Or just leaving your building reach after going in circles in your building reach.

Just a lot of ways to trigger it i guess ^^"

Reproductionrate is 100%

Hi, sorry about that. Fix will come soon. Thanks for the help.

Since I only see reports for large poles here, is this also fixed for substations (yes, im that rich ) ? Dont wanna open anther report if it was a fix for the whole power pole class

substations .... happening to me too.

Same. Here's my log file.

Thanks but as you can see it is already in the resolved category. The fix is in 0.17.23.
