Not So Random Crashes After All?
So looking back through my debug folder where all game crashes are stored, I found that of the last 127 crashes (that would be all since May 2023), 47 of them or basically 1/3 of all of them have been the same EIP.
I check every crash after it occurs, and when this specific EIP has occurred, there has never been any consistency behind it, and like 90% of errors, has no online explanation to it. So I've always brushed it off as "Ah, it's this EIP again. Must be one of those random game bugs that's bound to happen every now and then." Just like how Tiberian Sun used to have no solution to the occasional WaveClass or LaserClass errors.
But I've been doing a lot of testing and AI battles lately, and the last ten crashes have been the same EIP. Now I'm beginning to realize that it may be tied to one specific new country since I have now noticed their presence in every recent instance. Mind you, I've probably had hundreds of skirmishes or tests where this country is present with full powered AIs in full length matches without any crash. But the only consistency is the presence of this specific country, a subfaction of a new faction I added a few years ago.
The only unique factor about this country that might cause some issues is that I gave them the specialty of having many subterranean units, which while it works, is not as smooth as in Tiberian Sun (there are times where they choose to drive instead of burrowing even if it's across the whole map, which never happened in Tiberian Sun). Other than that, I have nothing to go off of, and crashing is not consistent enough for me to point a specific unit or moment causing it.
With all that said, here are a couple except texts of the same EIP. The other values in the stack dump do vary. Any guidance is appreciated!
