This mod is very stable, even robust - my save is big, it has other mods in it, and there are no major issues, until save hour 1163, where a corrupt deleted provider station created a fatal error. I tried to add a if-clause to catch the error, but failed due to my lack of knowledge of LUA. I've ended up to comment the faulty line out, load the game, do what the error triggered, saved, removed the comment and played for another hours without any issue. I'm writing this to give a level of ease to the priority, as I'm again am able to access my save and I'm not in severe need of immediate help :)
So what happend?
There was a station which requesting Sodium hydroxide solution. A train fulfilling this delivery throws the following error:
The mod Rail Logistics Dispatcher (0.0.18) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.
Error while running event RailLogisticsDispatcher::on_train_changed_state (ID 25)
RailLogisticsDispatcher/script/SurClass.lua:581: attempt to call method 'removeDeliveryFromStop' (a nil value)
stack traceback:

When trying to remove the train differently, a similar error appears:
The mod Rail Logistics Dispatcher (0.0.18) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.

So, in case you have this error, what helped me is the following:
- unzip the mod, so that it loads the files instead of the zip.
-- i need the move the folder and remove the zip for this.
- go to __/script/SurClass.lua:581 and -- comment the line out.
- load game, mine the train, save game, use regular mod.zip again.
-- I have no idea if there are follow up error due to this fix, but for now it's better than a fatal.
But how did I end up in that situation?
tbh - I don't know. But I have an assumption:
- In the hours before the event I've restructured a lot of stations. Picking them up, placing them somewhere else, etc.
- Train was otw.
- I've removed the provider.
- Train waited for a few hours due to train issues.
- Somewhere the connection to the provider was lost.
- When the delivery has to be removed, the provider stats are updated, but there is no provider, but a nil value.
When removing a station i usually remove the requests of that station and wait until all running requests are fulfilled. In case of fluids, I flush the stuff because I don't want to turn a requester into a provider. Once the trains are not inbound anymore I deconstruct the station, mostly with bots.
I've done that several times without issues, but I think this is the way the corrupt train came to existence. Still, I have no proof.

When loaded in, the train to your right is the corrupt one. Mining it gives you the error. The train to your left is stuck, and when you send it away and wait until the Sodium hydroxide solution is unloaded, you get the error.
Ah, and when you try to open the GUI of that station, you will get this error:
The mod Rail Logistics Dispatcher (0.0.18) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.

And mining the Station throws this one:

I hope this information finds you well, I'm available for questions!
I still highly recommend your mod, and taking a look into the code... it's beautiful :)
