Game Stalling/Crashing upon war resolution

[Needle_Fingers]

Hello!

I've encountered a strange crash where upon defeating the opponent i am currently in war with the game will stall and crash on the 3rd day of the following month.

I will attach the save file.
I am not running any mods are changes, the game is completely vanilla.

The manadasura are the people i am at war with, the claimed systems are mandas, Nunki and Teersonia. Nunki and Teersonia are owned by vassals of the manadasura. Upon completion of this war the game will crash.


Edit: I just tried something, Demanding peace whilst not including nunki did not immediately crash the game and it appears that the people in that system were in the middle of rebelling against the manadasura, perhaps that is the cause of the problem?

I think this may be more of a bug report. Can you include the version number and checksum of your game?

Also, go to your "...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\logs" folder and upload your "exceptions.log" file. Go to your ""...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\dumps" folder and there should be a file dated and timed to when your game crashed. Upload that as well.

Let me know if you need any further assistance with this.

Thank you for replying!

I was unsure which forum to put this in and initally it seemed more of a technical problem, sorry!

As for version, Version: Kennedy v1.4.1 (1759)

I do not have an exception.log file or any files in my \dumps folder.

I don't believe any crash logs were generated due to when the issue happens the game stalls and goes non-reponsive. I left it for 15minutes and it did nothing.

ah, that is interesting. I recommend you go to where your game is installed, ".../steam/steamapps/common/stellaris" and delete all files and folder. Then verify game integrity (this will basically reinstall the game)

Also, go to your "...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris" folder and delete all files and folders EXCEPT for the following:

• Save Games folder
• settings.txt
• user_empire_designs.txt

Then see if the save game still crashes

Hello Again.

I played out the rest of that game up to where i was happy to leave it and went through and did as you asked.

After deleting (almost) everything and verifying game integrity, i relaunched the save and the same thing occurred, upon the enemy surrendering nunki the game became non-responsive (left it for 30minutes) and i had to force exit it. Again no dumps were generated nor any exceptions in logs.

Of note, i relaunched the war later in that game against the same people and took nunki, only difference was that they were not in a liberation war the second time.

So did you get by the freeze?

Another question I have was is this game started when your game version was 1.4.1, or was it started on an earlier version of the game?

 

[Needle_Fingers]

Yes i can work around the freeze luckily.

And no, this game was only started 2 days ago.


The freeze does seem to be caused by something to do with the liberation war. Maybe it is bugged out under those circumstances?

Hmm, very strange. Glad you got around it though.

Just post here if you come across it again.
