Crash on Planet Generation

Post by S-Wes »

Hey,

So love every SR game since 2010. Bought multiple copies off steam and private before steam.

Would love to give GR a try but since release I crash on galaxy generation. Always at 19/100 planet or 25/70.

Any help?

Thanks!

1st question - anyone else experienced this?

@S-Wes, what version are you running? It shows in the bottom left of the main menu. Have you changed any settings? Have you tried generating a Very Small galaxy? You can set that on the screen when you select your faction, left side.

11.0.654

I changed resolution to 1900x1080 cause my native 4k had super small icons, UI scaling would be nice. :P
I may have changed some other settings like windowed etc but I am not sure what the originals were. I spent a few hours messing with it when i first got it just to get it visible and match up to monitor resolution. Which was extremely hard to do when buttons don't line up with mouse cursor.

Scaling for 4K is high on our priority list.

As for the crash, we'll watch for it. I'll likely ask you to test again in a later version.

I totally understand. But your example is why I feel Early Access process like this are important. We've probably got about 20 different configurations between the whole team and no one has had an issue like this. We need wider testing to find more issues.

I'll come back to this issue in a few weeks and see if you're having any more luck. That will get a few more builds out.

I had something similar with the first version. The windows "circle" would appear (small world gen). All I had to do was wait a few minutes when it got stuck and it would figure itself out (just leave the computer alone until its done it). I haven't had it on later versions. Maybe its worth you trying with the small world and seeing if you have the same problem.

It doesn't crash (haven't actually had a crash yet), it just goes none responsive on world gen, then after 30 seconds ish it is ok and finishes the world gen and its totally fine.
