i dont get the crash error that im seeing in other screen shots. my game just goes black screen for about 10 seconds where i can still hear things moving, and them it just closes and im on my desktop.

i did not make it as far as i had in the previous 2 playthroughs (i don't count the very first playthrough as i got up to pee and came back and everyone was dead/gone and i hadnt even built the workbench yet lol)

for me it came when i was already back to building. so i ran the copper plates around first, then when i went to do the iron gears i noticed i needed to raise the conveyor line of coal so i could just go underneath the line. i uninstalled the conveyors and rebuilt them the right way, and as i was waiting to be able to place the first conveyor next to the stockpile of gears, the game froze up and crashed.

#

i was also mixing in dropping the feeders in the right places at the same time, trying to multi task and keep the lines moving as the conveyors were being placed by the plebs

Alright I guess that might be a different issue. Although with the change it's also possible building specifically conveyors would have been less stable than before the update

yeah... it was that window of my conveyor going from red to green while the raised conveyor was being placed above it

#

it loads fine. its when i start playing with that set up that it crashes

#

most of my crashes i've gone back a save or 2 on my own and tried to attack the build a different way and see whats happening and it tends to always land at this instant. im starting to wonder if our love for stockpiles and hording goods we dont really need in the moment is causing other issues with building and deleting lol. i try to add them to the end of every machine so that the prospects aren't spending so much time hauling goods 2-4 at a time to the other machines and crafting stations. and only my main storage area is left open to "anything" while i compartmentalize the rest of the shit lol... this playthrough in particular i raced to get 3 drills set up on quartz so i would have the 3k in time for that trade objective which probably caused the earlier crash for me. i had been able to get to the 500 lucrum ingot mission on each of the previous 2 playthroughs before i crashed out... one of my other save files for those are in the threads somewhere

I mean in the end it should all work. Its unfortunate that we are seeing more crashes, but also each one we fix is one more thing that shouldn't hit players again. I think this last update also had a very rough edge case we missed.

I have a feeling a couple updates down the line we are going to have a lot of things sorted out. We now have so many great leads of things to fix!

yeah, im really excited for the potential of this game and i will continue to restart as needed and push it to its limits for you guys.

#

i haven't been this locked into a solo game in a long time...

#

i spend most of my gaming time in co-op stuff with my wife, otherwise im working on my music lol

@frigid vigil can you test if this indeed works again?

frigid vigil
#

i will load it up now

#

Can confirm that I was able to do what I was trying to do without an issue
