Arcanestomper Posted September 27, 2025 Report Posted September 27, 2025 Me and my friends are playing on a server, and we have encountered a problem with a certain area of our game crashing us every time. We've trying the remapping and repair commands, but nothing seems to work. Fortunately it only occurs in one area. Unfortunately that area is one of our farms. We can keep playing elsewhere, but is there a way to rescue players at that area. They crash as soon as they log in. So can I use admin commands to move their location. Maybe a mod, or even editing the save file?

I'm not sure that you can edit the save file in this manner, or that there's a mod to fix the issue. I know that my friend and I had similar issues recently on our server, and we were able to use the teleport command to perform a rescue--you do need to be fast with the command though, as there isn't much delay between the player hitting connect and actually joining the server. 2 hours ago, Arcanestomper said: Me and my friends are playing on a server, and we have encountered a problem with a certain area of our game crashing us every time. We've trying the remapping and repair commands, but nothing seems to work. Fortunately it only occurs in one area. Unfortunately that area is one of our farms. However, I think the more serious issue is the fact that the game is crashing. Speaking of mods, this would be my prime suspicion, assuming you are using them. Mods are what caused the issue on our server--specifically, Fauna of the Stone Age had issues with certain creatures spawns, that would crash the game if one ventured into an area with those creatures. Removing FotSA mods fixed the issue, however, to my knowledge FotSA mods have since been updated properly and are no longer causing problems. If you are using mods, make sure that they are up to date and/or otherwise working correctly. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if you manage to rescue your players and move elsewhere on the map to play--the issue will still be there and likely occur again. If not using mods, best to submit the crash reports over on the github bug tracker, as that's an issue with the game itself that will need fixing.
Arcanestomper Posted September 27, 2025 Author Report Posted September 27, 2025 It actually happens even if I disable all the server mods. It seems to be a problem with the game itself. Though it may well have been caused by some mod corrupting something. I checked the bug tracker and someone already submitted a bug about this. In the meantime I managed to restore a backup of the server that doesn't have the problem. So I'll just keep an eye on it and hope nothing gets corrupted again.
