The getcircuitcondition scripting function seems to crash the game in a specific case I've managed to isolate:

1. A smart inserter is connected to a pole using red wire
2. The inserter circuit condition is set to some value (like belt = 1)
3. The smart inserter is polled each tick using getcircuitcondition(0)
4. The pole is removed (mined) -> crashes the game once getcircuitcondition(0) is called on the same (or possibly following) tick.

Same crash using green wire and getcircuitcondition(1), maybe even logistic condition but I haven't tested that.

It doesn't seem to matter whether the condition is fulfilled or not.


I encountered this in my mod, where i use hidden smart inserters to control other behavior.

Just checked and verified that the call to getcircuitcondition doesn't need to happen in the same tick to trigger a crash.
A crash also consistenly occurs when the function is called at any time after the pole has been mined.

Hello, thank you for the report, the problem is fixed for 0.11.4 now.
