Crash due to other mod not appreciating null direction query

[TeamDman]

https://github.com/Berry-Club/Irregular-Implements/issues/44

Note that the crash is in the client-side logic for determining if fancy cable should connect, rather than inside the SFM server tick logic.

This means that disabling manager execution in the config is not viable to recover the world.

User indicated that they were able to use a console command to replace the block to recover their world.

Will add try-catch-logloudly to the capability discovery logic to make this a little easier for users in the future

Thanks @Sverd for the report!

Does this still happen if you use 1.6.1 of II?

[TeamDman]

SFM has included a fix by wrapping in try-catch with loud warning if things go wrong, now available in the new release of SFM 4.27.0.

Sverd — 2025-11-11 1:38 PM great, it will be in next update of sb4 and will test then, might already be on beta server, I can check later tonight if thats the version there

I haven't heard anything about the issue since the original report so I'm just gonna assume that things are good now, and if not we can reopen the issues
