Major gamebreaking bug (game shutdown)

[parkeyfinn]

This has happened every time I've tried to load a saved game:
Save loads with no issues, can unpause the game fine.

If I try to either save it again, view the route map, or practically any other action, the entire game just closes. No errors, no "not responding," the window just closes itself and nothing else further occurs.

2.14.2, patch B

Can you send a crash report over?
You can find it in the rootfolder called 'TAPv2.log'

None of them look correct to me so I'll send over the log

Hmm, it looks like it didn't generate a crashlog.

Can you send the save file over?

The game runs fine here. The first week is a bit slow as it has to calculate all load factors again, but it runs fine.


I did notice your game saved into the Temp folder, which might be the cause of the issue?
Have you unzipped the game? Is the game's rootfolder in the Temp folder? Can you move it somewhere else and run it from there?

If you want to continue on this specific save you will have to redirect the location of the TAP rootfolder in the savefile too.
To edit the location of TAP in the save you need a program to open .SQLite files. I use 'DB Browser for SQLite'.
Then go to 'Browse Data' in the tabs at the top, select 'SavedSettings' in the dropdown and update the 'DataDir' to the new location of the 'TAPv2/Data' folder.

If you don't mind starting over you can just copy the TAPv2 folder elsewhere and run the game without any issue.


I will make sure TAP NG saves its files to the user/documents folder which will fix this issue among other annoyances related to saves.
