It only crashes with this mod and only on making a new world

Thanks for the report! As I don't have SA, I need some help to figure things out. Please insert these lines in scripts/forces.lua directly after line 231:

minime.show("mod.player_data", mod.player_data)
minime.show("mod.force_data", mod.force_data)

Then go to the main menu --> Settings --> Mod settings --> Startup, enable the setting "Write debugging output to log file", restart the game, reproduce the crash, and upload the log file somewhere where I can fetch it without having to register. If you're on the forums, you can also send it to me in a private message.

Uh, I was following all the steps before I finally got to the "Making a new world" and the issue is gone.
It just works now, I cannot explain how or why because I do not know but thanks for trying, we might have scared it off

Quite a mystery! :-)

I'll mark this as "Not a bug" for now. By the way, don't forget to disable the debug setting unless it's needed! It could bloat your log file considerably (depending on the number of characters available, and how often you switch characters).
