(multi-user) ASB crashes for one user when another adds creatures

[dketcham]

I am in a group (4 people) that share an ASB database file using OneDrive. For the last patch or two, when one user attempts to upload a new dino of any sort to the database, all other active users receive an error (see image), and crash out of the application. The new dino appears in the database upon opening the application again.

I'm sorry that this issue hasn't been responded to yet. I saw it and forgot about it myself. I have no experience with OneDrive myself when it comes to ASB and don't know how it may differ from other file sharing services. One this that is important for ASB is to make sure all users are using the same version.

One thing I can suggest is to make sure that you are only sharing the library file (.asb). Each user should have their own local version of ASB, installed or extracted, to prevent potential conflicts with the file sharing service.

Another thing is to make sure that all users' OneDrive accounts have the proper permissions.

If all of this checks out, I can take a deeper look into how OneDrive behaves and see if it's a specific issue with how the data is synced. I believe we have had other users using OneDrive for quite a while without issue so I'd be interested if it's something that we changed to cause this issue.
