• Added PlayerPrototype::enter_vehicle_distance.

Where did you add it?

Same error for me too. Except, it also requires disabling Bob's Assembling Machines to start as well.

I added "enter_vehicle_distance = 0," in prototypes/fatcontroller.lua just under "ticks_to_stay_in_combat = 0," and it has worked well so far.

GForce4u, I didn't add it, I was showing the update news for the game so that he knows why his mod is now throwing the error, that way he can fix it faster knowing the prototype changed a bit.

add: "enter_vehicle_distance = 0," in prototypes/fatcontroller.lua just under "ticks_to_stay_in_combat = 0," as SebsterPalance advised, and you'll be able to load it with bob's assembling machines, W31D0n9. The reason it mentions bob's assembly machines is a little complicated to explain simply, but the only thing that needs to be done to get the mod to load is add a single line to the prototype. Whether this prevents crashes in game i don't know yet.

@usafphoenix Thanks for posting a solution. I may give it a try if my train network necessitates. Since the error, I just disabled TFC, which allows Bob's Assembling Machines to run no problem.

Fixed by update 3.0.2
