Error listed above also resulted in loss of new squad (bug 2 reported above).

[Captain Deathbeard]

does it give you a crashdump file in the game directory?

[utpriest]

Apologies. yes attached. I believe the last crash i had corresponds to the 2nd bug. I'll try and reproduce now and upload that file as well.

[Captain Deathbeard]

Ok, I need someone to get me a crashdump for the same bug in version 0.23.1, the latest update. That will have a good chance of finding the problem for me. Try to get it to crash again, so far I have not been able to get this crash, even if I save rapidly.

[utpriest]

I tried for an hour earlier. Rapid saves, in/out of buildings, while looting, etc. I couldn't produce it after the update. I'll try again tonight and let you know.

See if it is fixed in 0.23.2
