Error: Running LUA method 'loadSharedI3DFileFinished' - WorkArea.lua:356: attempt to index field 'workAreas' (a nil value)

[zinni97]

Hey guys

Not a huge important issue here, I'm just reporting it to let you guys know.

So I've been playing on the ModHub release CP6.4.0.0 pretty much since it came. Today I checked in here and saw the new V6.4.0.3 so I upgraded.
When I tried to load the savegame with CP6.4.0.3 the game got stuck in a loop while loading. When I downgrade to 6.4.0.0 again it loads fine.
Other savegames work fine with 6.4.0.3

I also tried loading and saving the savegame without CP, basically "deactivating" CP and then loading with 6.4.0.3 upon that, same result.

I've tired loading that savegame with CP6.4.0.1 gives the same result and log as 6.4.0.3.
So in short that savegame only loads with 6.4.0.0. Again other savegames work fine.

Now just to be clear I don't expect a fix, it seems to be a quite specific problem.
Obviously if you can think of something I can try I happily will.

Thanks for your great work guys!

@schwiti6190
We had that Error already in another Issue.
Do you know what have changed about WorkArea in 6.4.0.X ?

[Commissar0617]

i may be completely wrong, but i did a bit of digging, the only place that method is used is in toolmanager.lua

near as I can tell, the only change to that file between 6.4.0 and 6.4.1 was c1ae55d

courseplay:setCpMode(vehicle, courseplay.MODE_TRANSPORT)

changed to

courseplay:setCpMode(vehicle, courseplay.MODE_DEFAULT)

but idk how tf that could cause the nil return tho. maybe im just spitballing. or perhaps GIANTS did something, but last game update was mar 16th according to steam so idk.

[Commissar0617]

it is still occurring with 6.4.0.7. LMK if you want testing or further logs, etc

Should be fixed with 6.4.1.0
