Crash while loading a save with an accepted mission

[kinderhead]

Observed behaviour

Loading a save after accepting a contract and opening the sector map crashes the game.

Expected behaviour

The game does not crash when opening the sector map.

Steps to reproduce

Accept a mission (eg one of the corporate transportation ones)

Save and exit

Reload the save

Open the sector map

My pioneer version (and OS): 20220203 Windows 11

Without providing the save file in question we will be completely unable to act on this crash report. If you are able to provide the save that causes you to consistently crash, we can hopefully reproduce the issue and try to fix it. :smile:

_exit.zip Had to upload it as a zip because github wouldn't accept it otherwise

У меня точно такая же проблема. Игра вылетает при попытке открыть карту сектора. I have exactly the same problem. The game crashes when trying to open the sector map.

I think we need a back trace to get further on this, (I'm on the wrong machine now), so anyone with february release should be able to get that, using the save above, I hope, e.g. using gdb (if on GNU/Linux). See our wiki FAQ for how to do it, if not familiar.

Hi, looking like a very similar problem to what I have, however I do not have a mission accepted, I load the save, can open pretty much any menu, but if I open Sector map, game crash to desktop.

Although it happened once before, I reloaded a previous save, and it let me open the Map, so I just continued, this time, no matter what save I load, it crashes

Tried on 2 PCs, same result, I have attached documents pioneer folder for all output/opengl/saves Pioneer.zip

Version: 20220203 (9c06c9f)

Hope I got the backtrace instructions right, included the popup the gets thrown after the crash:

'Exception thrown at 0x00007FF62CDD03F3 in pioneer.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000014.'

Perhaps it was already in #5349 ? In the last message there is a link to the corrected artifact, as well as workaround.

[Compiemunky]

Hm ok, that one didn't come up with that issue when I was searching, may have forgotten to take off issue:open though.

Well anyway, the workaround in #5349 works for me, just have to run it every time I open the game, which I guess is expected with a console code, I'm not versed enough to know/see if there is a way to run on start automatically (Hobbyist coder that only learns what I need to get by :P)

Hope it works for OP too.

@Compiemunky You probably noticed that there, in fact, the sector map has 2 display modes - "far" and "near". It seems that the crash should not occur if the sector map is in "near" mode when saving.

[Compiemunky]

As I'm playing right now, I just tested, yep, far mode crashes, near mode doesn't. Just have to remember to save in the right mode... but at least there's the script to fix if I fail XD

[kinderhead]

The fix in #5349 works for me, but now I can't click on any stars in the near mode.
