Crash on Join / Respawn
Unsure what's causing this, but a new issue has arose that became more frequent since yesterday
Upon joining my server sometimes or upon dying, I will randomly CTD - The server itself does not crash, I am unsure what could the cause.
This is the debug log from the mod launcher after the crash that just happened 6 minutes ago - I died, going to respawn, then crashed
It also seems to crash (Client, not server) upon first joining the server after a reload/restart
This has the last 2 Factory Game files from the crashes as well

Yeah so it seems respawning guarantees a crash
But rejoining after the crash, everything is fine
I'm gonna test it with moving the hub
Same thing
Respawning triggers a crash for unknown reason
There's no smoking gun towards a particular mod in your logs, unfortunately
>verifysteam
I'd probably start with this
Then if no files are downloaded I'd try fully emptying my inventory and equipment slots and dying to see if it still happens
Already verified, but I will try what you just suggested
Yep
Crashed with empty inventory/equipment
Let me try it on a single player world in case it's a server issue
Ok so
Singleplayer works fine
I will try verifying the server files then
I did 5 respawns on single player, same save, just downloaded and loaded locally - no issues
Will verify server files and report back after
Verified both the regular game installation (in case it matters) and the server tools on steam and relaunching the server - Neither reported files to be nonvalidated
I will report back momentarily if I crash upon entering
I did not crash upon entering, but I did crash upon respawning
Would you like me to upload the new crash? @Sam (Check for updates 🔄)
Assuming that it may or may not be different
or if the server perhaps has any logs that may be helpful?
I'm assuming it'll be the same

I think the next step is unfortunately this

It's weird how it only occurs on the server though
And no new mods have been added either that wouldn't be server compatible
Not really, it's a completely different build target with different requirements
Hmm, that's fair
I'll give this a shot and see what implodes
the fact it's developed with no new mods is more interesting, but often these kind of issues can appear later once certain things have been built rather than just unlocked
the other possibility is something has gone wrong in the save data
Before I jump into the mod disabling rabbithole, I'm gonna do a quick test on a fresh save on the server and see if it occurs
Well, fresh save, I crashed immediately
If it is save related, sometimes uploading the save to SCIM and redownloading it can smooth out some issues
so that kinda gives me some hope that it isn't baked into the save
righto
By fresh save I mean, like completely new just to clarify
odd question, have you rebooted your PC/the server PC since the issues started?
Yes, it restarts daily - The PC/Server
yep debugmods flowchart is the next step, then
Roger that
Is there any way to refresh mods, like verify them?
or would it be uninstall, reinstall and ideally they don't leave any loose files behind
I'm still relatively new to satisfactory modding
it would be turn off mods, empty the cache, then turn them back on
>smmcache
To view the Satisfactory Mod Manager cache folder, or change its location:
gotcha
Ok so on both client and server
I turned off everything, deleted the cache, redownloaded all the mods
Fresh world loaded no crash this time
Going back to other save for further testing
I know it's not exactly as the chart suggested but I've been around the block to be willing to try this first
Crashed on respawn, will try on fresh save again
:smack:
and back to square one, guess it's time to disable half and half
zzzzzzzzzzzz
Now I will be doing the disable half and half and proceed from there
Well, it seems one of the mods I disabled fixed the crash, now to figure out which
That's the re-add half bit :pain:
so far, 5 mods left, 3 enabled out of the 5, 2 after that - let's see if it crashes
:prayge:
ok
I got it down to 2 mods
one of these is the culprit
it may also be a compatibility issue between one of them and another mod since both of those are pretty common mods
fuck
That sounds miserable to try and troubleshoot on what other mod may touch similar things
ok
It's all fluids are gases
I can't get in the server anymore

If this isn't the mod you were looking for, try a different spelling.
@Kyrium fyi
doing one more test to be thorough
does it work if you launch with only all fluids are gasses?
Let me try one thing then I will try that
I'm double checking with all fluids are gases disabled and trying advanced logistics rq
Then I'll do that
This works
I will now test All Fluids are Gases by itself in a new profile
Kinda sucks if it doesn't work as that mod is a godsend for this games horrible fluids
Yep
Crashes with it alone on a fresh save
Same crash as well
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
Righto, it looks like someone's made a replacement mod

Lemme try it out
Lemme get this all back in order and will go from there
Alright, relaunching server
Removed that mod
Will test fresh save first, then go back to main save
well
Even with that mod removed, still crashed
:kek:
Let me try without the remux mod(?)
now I'm becoming stumped
Did not crash on fresh save this time removing remux
I will now try the main save - I've got a manual back up so if it decides to implode
I will follow up with remux only after this
Ok main save works fine without remux - No crash on respawn (I respawned 5 times to be thorough)
I will now make a new save with remux only and see if it crashes on join / respawn
did you try running your save through SCIM?
no, but these issues occur on completely new saves as well
Ah yeah, that is super odd
Testing remux now
Only remux
ok..
So making a new save with just remux and now it didn't crash on join or respawn
This shit is weird
Let me try running my save through scim
With running through scim, is that done through the interactive map or a different way
Yep, there's an upload button top right, then a download button should appear
bet
ok so running remux only on SCIM save (main save) - no crash on respawn
so let me backtrack, go back to my main modlist and then try this with the scim save + remux installed
ok so
Main save > Ran through SCIM > Remux installed > Respawned > No crash
This isn't my first time spending hours troubleshooting mods for a game but this is how it always ends up ^
Fingers crossed it stays functional! All seems pretty bizarre
You're telling me
well, things were missing from the save so I reloaded it and crashed upon trying to enter fml
ok, checked the save in singleplayer, it's fine
I'm about to go mad
Checking again after a reload, on the server
Did you make any pipes shortly before the problems started?
I can't recall honestly, but reloading the save - respawning
now it seems stable
ok
SO I'm gonna back this up again, because right now, on this fresh restart of the save, it seems ok...
This is the SCIM save - Remux and all mods installed - everything looks normal, I can respawn without crashing
I will proceed as normal now, and if anything weird happens, I will report
I am going to check my pipes to see if they look normal
ok everything seems ot be back to normal
Talk about a nightmare of troubleshooting YEESH
I should update the multiplayer compatibility for my mode ^^‘ is mostly broken sine 1.1 I know that
I'm gonna mark this one as fixed in regards to using the remux mod, I haven't crashed since whatever I did last.
Damn we're having the same issue today but I don't have the gas mod
Goodluck
