@Angry parZival Could you upload your crash logs here?
Solution:Jump to solution
Both of you are using a non-beta version.
SMM doesn't automatically update to beta version, so you need to manually select that....

We need more information to help you. Before launching the game again, open the Mod Manager and use the "Generate debug info" option, then send the zip file produced in #help-using-mods. This ensures that your help request won't get buried and forgotten in other, non-help channels!
If you need to access older log files, see https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/faq.html#Files_Logs

OK, so it doesn't crash per se?
Also, the log you sent seems normal, and Cartograph is not installed.
Please generate the debug info after you experience a crash or freeze.

its pissed about a show/hide button
Yeah I know, and that's fixed in 1.1.0-beta. You're using Cartograph 1.0.1, which isn't for SF 1.1.
what you need to do is make it not a beta version so the manager doesn't think it needs an update
I released it as a beta because I think it's still premature to release a stable version.
And yes, I agree that it can be a bit frustrating to find out that you need a manual installation, but we can't set the compat info per version.
But I thought it's more beneficial to release it as a beta, so I did.
... And they left the thread immediately 🙃
