After a bit of gameplay I ran into this bug attempting to sell something, seeing that the code shows the attempt, there is not much more to add other then “attempting to sell” if you need more devs, I have the save and can look into it or send it.
=============================================

Hey there @xnode, thanks for your first bug report!
First, do you remember what you were trying to sell (which item specifically)? Sometimes an individual item can cause issues (versus the entire trading system).
Second, have you encountered this bug again?
Third, with your save game, can you repeat the issue consistently?
Summary:
Not sure what this is. Might be tied into some idle worker issues I’m having.
Steps to reproduce:
Honestly, I have no idea what is going on. These errors just keep coming.

Ever time hitting F5

Hey there @Dragonfuri, welcome to the Discourse! Thanks for the report. It looked the same as this one here, so I went ahead and merged them. Just for your information, pressing F5 resets the UI, and unless you have closed the error permanently, it will likely come up every time.
Thanks @jomaxro for merging the tickets, I had clicked the Close permanently, but when hitting F5 the error still come up every time. I have begun a new game. no issue so far selling stuff.
just additional systeminformation:
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

Is there anything special I need to do with the save?
I fixed on error in it that was on load, but it wasn’t the “attempt o index field ai” error.
I waited until the merchant came and then sold all my stuff. it seemed to be okay … Maybe fixing that initial error fixed the other stuff too.
Thanks

@yang:
Certainly possible the first fix got both…in my case I actually got this error when buying items. Forgot to read the title, just saw a matching engine error. I received the error after the UI crashed from the Tooltipster’s error, it popped up when I hit F5.
Just got this again, but I accidentally clicked Close Permanently instead of Copy to Clipboard. Going to re-request an Are you sure? dialog!
No useful save at the moment, as the error will not appear again…will keep trying! dev-2807, by the way.
