g game crash if aai vehicle kills

2 months ago

mod causes a game crash if an aai vehicle gets a kill due to there being no player in said vehicle

updating line 182 in control.lua from

if event.cause.get_driver() then

to

if event.cause.get_driver() and event.cause.get_driver().player then

fixes this by ensuring that player is not nil
i have no idea if this supports markdown, so the codeblocks i did may just not work

Hi, I have similar problem (crash on enemy death) with a mod Legio Titanicus: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/WH40k-Titans
Basically, if I kill someone with the primary weapon - game crashes. Laser defence and stomping is OK tho o_o

Error text:

Error while running event ColonyBuilder::on_entity_died (ID 4)
ColonyBuilder/control.lua:184: bad argument #2 of 3 to 'index' (string expected, got nil)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function '__index'
__ColonyBuilder
/control.lua:184: in function <ColonyBuilder/control.lua:157>
==============================================

On the side note - there is fun (probably unintendent) feature - Colony soldiers can embark titans like APC (in the equipment grid).
I wonder:
- Why?
- Maybe you can make togglable setting to allow soldiers to embark in vanilla equipment grids and/or vehicle storage? Spidertrons/modded flyers with dropship troops - sounds cool!

The issue should be fixed now I hope, let me know if it is not.

Regarding infantry being able to be placed in the equipment grids of Titans, that is actually a feature from that mod. It changes all turret-like equipment, which includes infantry from my mod, to be able to be placed in their grids.

I test it in the sandbox, and this error is still there.

I made a small hack that resolves issues with AAI, but I'm not sure how the bounty system works. So, bounties that couldn't be sent to the owner of AAI vehicles will be sent to the host instead.
Changed line 191-195 in control.lua to:

                   local playerIndex = (type(player) == "table" and rawget(player, "index")) or 1
                if ammo == "nonlethal-rounds-magazine" then
                        global.colonydata.playerdata[playerIndex].bounties[event.entity.name .. "_alive"] = 
 (global.colonydata.playerdata[playerIndex].bounties[event.entity.name .. "_alive"] or 0) + 1
                else
                    global.colonydata.playerdata[playerIndex].bounties[event.entity.name] = 
 (global.colonydata.playerdata[playerIndex].bounties[event.entity.name] or 0) + 1
                end

This issue should be fixed now with patch v0.1.5.
