CTD when I clicked on the “harvest” menu.

The error messages look like backward-incompatibility with old versions of the new builder. The crash it’s hard to tell - can you upload the log and crash dump?

4

Sure, attached.
crash.zip (54.7 KB)
stonehearth.log (85.5 KB)

The crash should be fixed in the next release. The building error I will pass on to the building folks.

That was fast o.O what was it, that you identifed in 30 seconds?? lol

Oh - also, would it be valuable to have a new game where only the current version of the new builder is being used, rather than potentially rediscovering the same thing?

7

It’s the same error as mentioned in another thread that I’ve already fixed.

8

Ah gotcha. I’ll set that save aside then.
