1.5 , sending wingman on reconnaissance can crash the game

[nitrodust]

Sending a wingman on reconnaissance can sometimes crash the game to desktop. There is a freeze first and then crash to desktop. This seems to be an issue ever since 1.5 was released.

 

I have this in the logs:

I have 3 crash logs so far with this RtlUserThreadStart()+34 related to this crash.

I also have a .dmp file, but I don't know where to send it

 

This one is a bit strange and I sadly have not found a reliable way to reproduce it. It has happened several times now, it only seems to happen when I have played for a while. It has happened in the campaign, the insurgent instant action. As I said I have nod been able to reproduce it reliably. It does not seem to be related to the distance the wingman needs to travel.

 

So far I have :

play for a while

send wingman to reconnaissance

crash to desktop.

 

Edit : I managed to reproduce the issue:

In the Deployment Campaign:

Narzan Valley mission

fly to the ingress point

shoot a few trucks and AAA

command wingman to scout 2 km ahead

player pilot speaks the commands

the AI does not respond

crash to desktop

 

This issue is not tied to this mission. however I have only been able to reliably reproduce this in this mission, mostly due to the easier timing.

I had this crash two times yesterday in the last mission of the Deployment campaign. It's not really reproducable for me either, but if it happens it happens directly after my Pilot gives the Radio command, when the Wingman would normally acknowledge.

Same here about, quick start insurgents mission.

Radio command to wingman1 to recon 1km.

It crash immediately after radio transmission.

I'm experiencing the same crash with the Ka-50 module in 1.5.1. It doesn't happen all of the time, so it took me a while to figure out that sending a wingman on recce was the trigger for the crash.

 

Here's my crash log, for whatever it's worth:

In my case it tends to only happen on missions with long flights before engagements. Fortunately the flying part is just as fun as the weapons part, so redoing missions isn't a big deal :).
