DCS Crash when flying the Su-27 in a custom mission

[Wizard1393]

Unable to interpret anything myself from the log relating to the crash.

 

Had to remove the track to upload. Track was 20Mb. Can be supplied if requested.

strange

 

before the crash there was a ctld script error

 

2018-04-29 13:04:06.793 ERROR DCS: Mission script error: : [string "ulPoint = Unit.getByName("transport1"):getPoint()..."]:2: attempt to index global 'ctld' (a nil value)

stack traceback:

[C]: ?

[string "ulPoint = Unit.getByName("transport1"):getPoint()..."]:2: in main chunk

Yes. But that was 15 minutes prior to the DCS crash, didn't you notice? :)

No :megalol:

 

go for my crash advice below

 

Fresh saved games dcs folder and a cleanup and repair

 

see if it helps

I isolated the issue to the scripting engine function object:destroy()

 

This code was used:

wh = StaticObject.getByName('WareHouse 001')
if wh then
wh:destroy()
end

 

I use this code after the WareHouse has been "destroyed", when it's smoking and shooting flares forever and ever, why I want to remove it. Then it crashes DCS.

For testing, I called the function before the warehouse is "destroyed, and it did not crash DCS.

Also sorry to say the problem is intermittent. It does not cause a DCS crash every time, but almost.

Thanks chrisofsweden

 

if you get more logs after a crash add them, the dev team will see them also.
