Hi,
I'm playing Laser general and the game crashes every time i train a soldier after purchasing the chem suit upgrade. The ones i train before the upgrade are fine though. I haven't tested with vanilla or other gens yet. Can you check this?
Thanks in advance.

This error

In the Zero Hour Data folder, there is a file called ReleaseCrashInfo.txt. If you copy that text and paste it here, I can help you further with this problem

Any chance you modded your game?

That background of your error message looks a lot like the background image of TibEd2 editor.

In case you changed something:
Chem Suit has hardcoded effects. You cannot use the default ChemSuit upgrade with any other Armor than the default ChemSuitHumanArmor and vice versa, iirc.

So if you added a new armor for infantry, you'll have to use a different Upgrade.

Above is my crash info. I'm not using any mod other than SWave. I only modify for my guys to get heroic veterancy from the start though.

Posted by: Iohk 22 Nov 2016, 7:50

Ok. After removing the veterancy gain, every thing is fine now. However i still don't get why the crash happened.

The veterancy gain module and the chem suits module simply don't work together, it's an engine bug.

Yeah, it's one of the oddities of ZH. If you want veterancy on units that also use the Chem Suits upgrade, you will have to turn these units into bikes (i.e. make them use Bike Logic) and make the riders gain the vetereancy bonii instead.

This explains a lot if trouble I had in the past.
