"Engine error" crash
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When attempting the 2nd mission on Victoria crater in the Space Program game mode, doing the soil analysis, the game crashed with an error message stating:

"Engine error

Index out of range (-4 >= 256)
Class: 'Vehicle_WidgetHandler'
Function: 'SetWidgetDefaultColour'
Stack trace:
scripts/Entities/VehicleWidgetHandler.h:108
scripts/Entities/Controllers/Modules/VehicleHUD.h:547"

The error appeared as soon as the analysis completed when doing the soil analysis. The game's sound effects could still be heard in the background, but the game window itself was just solid white and I could not do anything but shut it down using task manager.

Attempt to complete soil analysis during 2nd Victoria crater mission.

I have not attempted to reprodue the error yet. My progress in the Space Program was not saved due to the crash. Will re-attempt as soon as time permits.

I also struggle with this, no idea why it does this. Perhaps do a cache-check on Steam, or delete some steam-files?

I just had this issue as well. I just finished the second Victoria mission and was about to click the CTR button in the Searcher menu when the game crashed with the following:

Engine error

Index out of range (-4 >= 256)
Class: 'Vehicle_WidgetHandler'
Function: 'SetWidgetDefaultColor'
Stack trace:
scripts/Entities/Vehicle/WidgetHanlder.h:108
scripts/Entities/Controllers/Modules/VehicleTabs.h:518

I'm also getting the same error when in a rover, I've just started a new save and this has just started after the recent update
