[2.2.0.4] START_CHARACTER causing crashes in mods

richvh · Nov 2, 2014

If the character with the ID specified by START_CHARACTER in defines.lua does not appear in a mod's history/characters, the game will crash before the map pan unless the tutorial has been disabled.

This is unchanged from 2.2.

I looked into this issue previously and fixed one crash related to it. However I am not able to reproduce this crash in 2.2.0.4. Could you provide me with a repro-case so I can look into it further?

Thanks!

Download mod Nova Monumenta Iaponiae Historica from the Mediafire link. Delete settings.txt, so the tutorial is enabled. Enable it in the launcher. Crashes.

Disable the mod, start game and disable tutorial. Exit game, select the mod. Does not crash.

(The Workshop version does not crash, because a character with ID 108500 was added at my recommendation. The crash is unchanged in 2.2.0.5.)

Thank you! I'll make sure this is fixed until the next patch.

Looks like the fix got into today's patch, by the change log. I'll test it when I got home.
