For some reason I can never link to Gahreesen a 5th time during one log in. I can link there 4 times, but if I try to link there a 5th time it ALWAYS crashes while on the loading screen. It doesn't even have to be 5 links to Gahreesen in a row, I can go to other ages in between visits to Gahreesen but will still crash by the time I try to go to Gahreesen a 5th time.

Can anyone make it to Gahreesen a 5th time (without restarting Uru)?

This is with a full-sized personal instance of Gahreesen

Confirmed. It looks like an "interesting" (read: difficult to debug) crash. We'll see about getting it fixed in time for Gehn 18.

Indeed an interesting crash which I can confirm as well ... I wonder how you, Ehren, got the idea of having linked in there five times in the first place, but however, I've archived the modified files as of today (not the whole log folder as requested in the error/crash message) in a zip file in case that could be of any use for you, though you might have gained sufficient information from your own test ...

I think I managed to bandage it. I'm not totally certain if my fix is totally right though, it still needs some testing. If it is, there are a lot of variants of this crash to fix.

yes, great catch, Ehren

Glad there will be some testing to do on the fix; will you give us a hint about the other variants to look for, Adam?

The symptom I fixed is spread all over the code and will take some time to fully root out, so it could re-manifest in a lot of ways that are just as subtle as this one . There's no way I can have it all fixed by Monday, but the Gahreesen linking will be bandaged. I say "symptom" because I don't think I've identified the real problem yet.

As my brother asked me just a moment ago: How can it be coincidence that the crash happens every fifth visit? After all, this is the D'ni...

Wow, awesome answer, Deledrius ...
