**Summary:**

I have tried promote worker to blacksmith, but after promotion he doesn’t do anything and I can’t open crafters menu. I have tried promote him back to worker and blacksmith again, but result is he just stands around half naked. I am not sure, does one of the mods this problem, so I think someone could help me with it.

Here is error code:

This one might be tough to find with the mods involved. I’d ask you to disable your mods just to see if he will promote, but I know that doing so will cause a bunch of errors when you load up the game.

Still, if you clear the errors, retry the promotion, then exit out and re-enable the mods, you should at least be able to tell if one of the mods Is causing it, or if it’s the base game. Worth a shot?

Only mod which I didn’t disable was swamp goblins and I got promotion to blacksmith. So problem is not in the base game. Chabonit mod is my latest download, so problem might be on that?

Sounds like a likely candidate. If the mod designer is still active, please contact them for assistance directly. As you might expect, Team Stonehearth can only provide support for the base game.
