crashes when island transfer happens

kaizerkat

Freebooter
when i sail to another island and when the Land HO screen appears, sometimes i get a crash and start over from my last save and then again it will crash at sail ho. third time i get through, although i do not see as many enemy ships anymore in my own waters meaning around my home island or any other friendly island, i can sail to an enemy island and there are a few ships there. anyway here is what the error message reads "
RUNTIME ERROR - file: seadogs.c; line: 751
Save - ARef to non existing attributes branch
RUNTIME ERROR - file: seadogs.c; line: 751
Save - ARef to non existing attributes branch

more concerned about the crashes btw
 
Those error messages are something to do with saving a game. I often see them and they don't appear to cause any trouble, even to the saved game.

Have you changed anything about ship encounters in "PROGRAM\InternalSettings.h"?
 
b14 final and no i have not touch the ship encounters, wait, maybe i changed the type of ship of ship size for example, pirates ship size max was 4 and i changed it to 2 thats all, did not touch fleet encounter still at 0.0
 
these two crashes happen quite often, the first one u already have been informed and this one
RUNTIME ERROR - file: NK.c; line: 4511
invalid index -1 [size:1100]
RUNTIME ERROR - file: NK.c; line: 4511
function 'CheckCharacterCurse' stack error

this occurs when i leave shore and the port and when im on ships deck to sail from just to clarify. i.e when im on the ships deck and i hit the sea icon and boom get a crash i will try it again sometimes twice then i can go to sea, but wonder did i lose something cause in the past versions there was always a pair of enemies lurking off coast not so much with this version so it seems...lately i have to sail to enemy waters to battle
 
one more thing which is a different issue, when i go to pick up cargo floating in the sea after sinking a ship, even though i sail over the cargo sometimes it does not bring it aboard, yesterday i sailed over it twice and no pick up, my ship is the RN_Neptunis.
 
Next time it crashes, post the files "compile.log" and "system.log". Don't copy and paste the contents of the files; use the "Attach files" button to add the files themselves to your post.
 
Can you upload a savegame? You'll need something like 7-Zip to compress the file first, otherwise the forum will not accept it.
