Discovery 4.86 General Bugs

[Vaktus]

CTD at random times while using tradelanes in New Berlin in my Rheinland Battleship. No error reports, just minimizes, I can still hear the tradelane sound effect, then it says "Freelancer has stopped working".

I know one thing for sure, I'm staying away from tradelanes from now on while I'm in a Battleship. Probably wise, it looks very weird when I use them.

Yep, I keep getting this one too. It appears to be the "general" error for anything thing it doesn't like.

Happens at random for me, but there's also a couple of specific times it crashes for me to the desktop on any of the multiple Windows VMWare instances I can run (currently tested this version of DiscoFL on WinXP SP3, WinVista, Win7, and under Unbutu WINE 1.3r36):

- Docking at either St. Paul Base or at Duluth Shipyard in the Minnesota System with any Universal ID/IFF ship.

- When a ship launches, and then docks with a "discontinued" ID (it affects alot of people when that happens).

- In general flight (cruise, impulse, stationary, trade lanes, jumps....doesn't matter)

Here's the data off my Win7SP1 VMWare instance, where it's occurring the most (I've CTD'd 47 times now in the last 3 days on this one alone):

Problem signature:

Hope it brings you some comfort that you're not alone with this one.....and it could help point the finger at the problem code.

Cheers!:D

[Wraga]

Okhai, there is something wrong in New York. The game instantly crashing when I try to log in. I dont know what can be the problem, but there were no problems like this in any system before.

At the moment I cant leave the system, since Fl crashing on me constantly.

Game crashes everytime I try to dock Legate on Tripoli in Gamma, also the same thing started to happen when I try to dock at Rhodes Shipyard in Omicron-91.

[Mao]

1) Riom Shipyard, Maintenon Shipyard, Battleship Guillestre, Battleship La Riche. Ship dealer screen doesn't appear. Impossible to buy/sell ships there.
2) Brigand Cuirassier NPCs have a thrust speed of 350, being able to chase other traders that are cruising and fire their weapons.
3) Maquis Satelite near Montlucon Space Colony. It only appears as a red arrow when you're not looking directly at it.
4) Beauvais Production Facility sells Crow, CSV and Collector (junker ships) but the base is EFL.
5) Luxury Liner Belleville... is not a Luxury Liner.
6) When using the vertical lanes, the "lane activation" effect sometimes appears on the other way.

The info card for La Charite Space Port is not accessible. I docked there and selected the base to read the card from the map screen and it shows only generic information. No specific info about the base.

Repeated crashing in a Kujira along the trade lane from Norfolk to West Point and the surrounding area in New York. Happens every time I fly in. I'm trapped!
