Mod broken after 1.08 update?

[joverton13]

I just installed the update, and it looks to have broken the mod. If I click "RPG" in the GUI, nothing opens. I see the Spells menu, but trying to use fish to cast a spell doesn't work; the screen flashes red, I lose some HP, and nothing else happens (nothing is summoned).

Will be happy to provide more information; just let me know what you want and where to get it.

Thanks! (I love this mod...was sad to see it broken!)

Hi!

Happy that you are finding the mod to your liking! 👏 What version are you currently running?

I'm using 1.0.8 in the video below. And afaik everything seems to work?

So sorry for the delay; I was away for several days.

When I installed 1.08, it stopped working. If I downgraded to 1.06, it started working again.

Not sure why, but maybe it has to do with other surfaces? I'm playing with Mobile Base and Space Exploration, and I have always found that while I could open the RPG window on other surfaces, I could not adjust stats or use the fish powers unless I was on the main planet surface (things like crafting speed, run speed and inventory space still worked, at least most of the time).

I will try to find a time in the next day or two to reinstall 1.08, and record it to show you.

My installed mods, if that helps. Keep in mind, this broke when going from RPG 1.06 - 1.08. I don't have 1.07, so I don't know if that's when this happened or not .

[Gerkiz]

That seems indeed odd! Could you provide a save? That way I can fix this rather quick 👍

[joverton13]

Absolutely!

1.06: https://www.dropbox.com/s/94emxr07wt3q2sx/RPG_106_test.zip?dl=0 1.08: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dcpyuve9s3i68nt/RPG_108_test.zip?dl=0

Please let me know if you have any issues accessing these.

I see the issue, I will try to fix this!

[Gerkiz]

This is now fixed in 1.0.10*.

Sorry about the migration issue!

Also, your save has the mod: RE:Storage Energistics which is making your game lag crazy. Consider removing this mod or report this issue to the author 👍

[joverton13]

It works! Thanks so much!!

Yeah, I know SE is a hog...However, for my manner of playing (more "idle") it's not so bad, and the QoL it provides is much better...but thanks for the suggestion :)

I see you added more spells....very cool! But what does "Charge" do?

Thanks again for the fix :)

[joverton13]

So....Odd thing happening here...

First time I load a game, everything works fine...however, saving/reloading seems to break the mod again...the "RPG" is only grey (even if I have points to spend), and the main gui window stops at STR.

Any ideas?

Sea_001.zip Sea_000.zip

[Gerkiz]

Thank you for your report! I'll check out the zip files 👍

[Gerkiz]

How odd. I can't seem to reproduce this?

I tried loading Sea_001.zip, and I checked the rpg menu, looks like this:

I then tried to add points to various skills and that went well.

Thereafter I saved the game as Sea_002.zip and loaded that. Picture below:

Could you please post your factorio-current.log and factorio-previous.log found in %appdata/roaming/factorio

Thanks!

[Gerkiz]

I tried creating a new freeplay run and did the same as you. But everything checks out? ✅

[joverton13]

factorio-previous.log

Hmm...No idea what's going on then...

This is the only log with data - not sure if this helps at all...because it's dated today, and currently it's working on my end.

If It happens again, I'll post the relevant logs.

Quick question: Do you know if there's a "cache" that could be corrupted at all? Recently I've gotten weird mod errors that I don't know why they are happening, and this issue above with the truncating everything after STR have been weird, and I can't figure out why (I'll enable and disable mods, but can't think of any rhyme or reason why it's happening).

[joverton13]

I'm trying to still figure out the conditions that this happens, but haven't had much luck.

I'm playing on two machines: a desktop and a laptop. At one point, everything was working on my desktop. Saved, synced, and loaded it on my laptop, and the truncation error happened. So, I deleted the %appdata%\factorio folder on my laptop, copied it from my desktop, loaded the same game, and no truncation.

However, when I tried to load another game that has the truncation error was occurring on, it still happened...So, shrug.

[Gerkiz]

The factorio-previous.log does not show any errors. If you do manage to find a way to replicate the issue do reopen this issue.
