    Solo Game. I was warping from the just destroyed GLaD base to the High Security Star. It takes 3 jumps. On the second jump, got a COQ. Corrupted game so that save file gives COQ on startup. Reloaded old save (just fine) and tried warping again with same results. COQ emails were sent with details, but it looks like no more testing for this build for me.

    Hey Radgrim, can you you possibly add your savegame with a state before you warp right here?

    Was just watching a streamer get the same thing at the same place as soon as he warped into that system, lots of error and then crash and his save was corrupted also!
    I am about to do it in next step and will say if it happens to me also!

    Yep so warped there and got error and red logg spammed.

    Update: Ok so tried something, did not logout to try get rid of the error msg from hell but instead sat there and spam clicking them away while running thru the prison in gm to finish it and then warped out of the system, then logged out and back in, the save work and seems the continuios nightmare errors are gone for now.
    But its defenitly something seriously messed up with that zone that need attention!
    Cant upload save cuz its to big even after compress and zip for some odd reason (19055kb)

    Thx a lot for the feedback and retesting - we are tracking it already :)

    Btw - is it only when going to the High Security system or did you notice that in other systems as well?

    I just did another CoQ and this time understood to attach the log files. Not sure how to send you the save game. I zipped it, and then got the message file too large. Sorry - new to the forum, not new to computers, lol.

    P.S. Only noticed this in HighSecurity.

    +1 also having this kind of trouble.
    Obersvations:
    - First Warp attempt to HighSec throws NullReference. After warp animation is completed you are where you started to warp.
    - Second try triggers SQL Errors everytime the game tries to save your position.

    Attached a log vanilla / single / freedom mode.
    Also applies to vanilla / single / survival mode. (to tired to find out which of the logs that would be.)

    Tested every star class available today (ehrm, by now yesterday), and every special suffixed one. Only HighSec triggers the problem.
    Read the involved yaml's and haven't found any oddities from a glance.

    Tried to revert affected yamls to pre 1.5 to see what happens. Same problem.
    Thats odd. So it seems no to be the yamls as such but rather a problem in the code itself.
    Maybe some of those pesky little sytax errors compilers will never complain about.

    Maybe use after free, last ref gone, or gc cannibalism?

    (Personal note: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. I hate that. It's somewhat ambigious. An object is an instance.
    If it means "Object reference not set to an instance of an Class/etc" the NullException would make sense. These sometimes happen for what ever reason. This time it seems the reference to the warp start playfield gets lost while transitioning. The next time you jump (just tested that case) to anywhere in the galaxy you jump from NULL to destition. Which SQL don't likes. Also tested the click away approch.

    Jumping from HighSec to anywhere gives you a valid state again. Conclusion: From HighSec to x works. x to HighSec not.)

    Next testplan, analyse the sql database and manually correcting invalid values. Then test if game loads and problem is gone.

    Yeah.. this is really a strange one. I found a few other occasions .. but even spending half a day I could not track down any typo or misconfiguration error .. so it might be code related (or there is simply a . or , somewhere set wrong and I read over it half a day :D

    We are looking into it already. Thx for all our feedback!

    This happened top me as well, I emailed the save game and log to the support desk.
    I am turbo charging through the story line now and will let you know if this happens again in 3366.

    Issue happened again in version 3366.
    Log file and a save 1 jump out from the high security system is enclosed.
    All you have to do is jump in to cause the error.

    At least the jump did not complete this time and I can jump back to the starter system, but every time I try to jump to the high security system the game crashes.

    I had this same issue with the High Security location. I was able to finally complete the quest line with some perseverance by loading a prior save but it was very buggy (Alex and Talon NPC were invisible) and I received constant error messages. I saw the attached in the console.
