UDM3 AIO 2 crash on liberation

Post by rawsy »

Hello,

I have been experiencing a crash to desktop on turn processing when trying to liberate a minor.
It doesn't happen on every liberation but in the attached save has happened with the vulcan's so i subjugated them and that worked.
Now it is happening with the zakdorn.

is there a work around please?

Many thanks for your time.

The code fails on "destroy OB" but no OB are present. this might be a phantom OB or saved game is slightly corrupt.

I also suspect zakdorn has been subjugated multiple times, and code might have ran out of possible paths to do a liberation.

If you subjugate zakdorn no crash.

Strange it happened with 2 minors in the same game.

Is subjugation the only option?
Can I edit them to be free perhaps?
Or is there a way of fixing the glitch?

Many thanks

without info on other instance it might not be same issue?

you can wait a few turns until system builds a OB to see if that helps. but this might take many turns.

any saved game editing would corrupt saved game.

any editing of code would more than likely corrupt game (cause conflict)
plus I could not find any patch for this type of issue.

BOTF in general has a tendency to have more errors as game goes on. This is why I try to complete my games before turn 200.
Plus when you add/edit code as most mods do this will tends to fix basic issue, but may still have issues on unusual cases like this. (subjugated, subjugated then liberated)
So you have learn to live with these crashes.
