Random Map Generator sometimes Crashes

[Radaral]

Often when I make random maps I get an IE right before the ore, buildings, placements, and vegetation spawns.

Did you read the last few entries of debug.log? I'm betting you enabled Urban Areas without the right structures.

[Radaral]

Uh I see warp able and mouse as the last entry. And what right structures may I have unenabled or disabled that are needed for urban areas? It's really bothering me.

[DCoder]

Do notice that you uploaded syringe.log and I referred to debug.log, which is a different file entirely. Check your game's debug/ subfolder and debug.log will be there, and I can bet the last lines will be "generating urban areas" or similar.

A new checkbox – 'Place Urban Areas' – allows the user to add an assortment of streets and urban combat buildings at random spots throughout the generated map. The objects placed by this feature are hard-coded to the following list for the time being:

* Structures: CABUNK01, CABUNK02, CAARMY01, CAARMY02, CAARMY03, CAARMY04, CACHIG03, CANEWY01, CANEWY14, CANWY09, CANWY26, CANWY25, CATEXS07
* Vehicles: TRUCKA, TRUCKB, COP, EUROC, SUVW, SUVB, FTRK, AMBU
* Infantry: CIV1, CIV2, CIV3, CIVA, CIVB, CIVC

I'm unable to recover a debug.log file. There's a Debug folder with an except and a .dmp file. And yes I said yes to the error report.

This is me btw. Somehow my log in got eaten or I sat afk for to long on here and it logged out.

[DCoder]

Well, I gave you the list of structures it uses, is there anything else?

[Radaral]

Why Am I not getting a debug.log file? I never did a windows search? I know it's on my end maybe the launch base could be disabling the creation of that? And I checked those buildings and nothing seems off about them in the coding.

for sanity's sake, i recommend moving all your old unneeded debug files and dumps from your /debug folder, and then running the game once. Produce the error, get the crash, tell it to produce the dumps/error reports, and then check your /debug folder again. Sometimes I can't find a specific file simply because it is hidden among an array of other old useless debug files.

Also, I have a feeling launch base DOES have some option to toggle Ares logging. Since I don't use Launch Base in favor of an easier and simpler manual approach I wired up myself, I can't tell you exactly where, but it should be relatively easy to find.

[Radaral]

I fixed by Launch base setting and still not crash.logs being created. all these worth anything though?

[DCoder]

That crashed in placing tech structures. Do check that your [AI]NeutralTechBuildings= are all correct.

[WoRmINaToR]

also, you're not looking for "crash.log"; the file DC is looking for is called "syringe.log" or "syringe.txt"

Thank you. One of my buildings had wall=yes on it. So the game confused what it truely was and probably crashed. the error is fixed.

On a side note which seeds in random map generations generate the most Urban Areas and Which seeds also generate the most water? Or have high influences in those two things.
