InfoAddict Crash on Exit #180

Open stackpoint opened 10 years ago

stackpoint commented 10 years ago

So I was looking into possible solutions to the InfoAddict crash on exit bug (that I was reminded of when I made the mistake of looking at the large list of complaints on the steam workshop page) when I came across a possible solution. Adding a reference to CAT:

<Mod id="aec5d10d-f00f-4fc7-b330-c3a1e86c91c3" minversion="0" maxversion="999" title="InfoAddict" />

I'd like someone else to check if this works for them since I don't know why this would work. I'm pretty sure that the crash has something to do with the external database that InfoAddict/CEP keeps (MapModData) since it crashes on exit of the game. I can't find any code to suggest that though...

What is/isn't supposed to happen? I have not seen the bug. How is it triggered?

When CEP and infoaddict are active you crash to the desktop when you try to exit the game (whether to menu or desktop). I'm guessing load order has something to do with it which is why you may not have encountered this bug.

I've seen this problem before and I use Infoaddict.

I don't think the load order is the problem though. I did the following tests, where I started a new game and exited to Main Menu:

Strange. I wasn't getting crashes after I had made the reference in CAT.

I have just tried the two options, and as with @skodkim I crashed on both tries. The reference in the CAT modinfo doesn't look to be doing the trick.
