2017-01-06 build crashing frequently

#1 Post by UrshMost »

I am getting frequent program crashes with the new build dated 2017-01-06. It seems to crash randomly around every 5 - 30 turns. Crashes are not yet reproducible; I can load an autosave from the turn before the crash and it plays successfully. I reinstalled the previous version of Freeorion (2016-12-26) and loaded an autosave from the 2017-01-06 version the and was able to play it for a hundred turns without crashing. Reinstalled the new version, loaded an autosave, and it crashed within 10 turns.

The windows application error log shows:

Fault bucket , type 0

Problem signature:

Probably the same weird issues that have been appearing with one of the many C++11 range based loops conversion commits.

If, as it appears from the crash report thing, a crash in the client, then presumably there is something that you're doing in the UI that causes the crash. If that can be identified, it would be easier to attempt to fix.
