Dedicated Server Crash When Placing or Grinding Certain Blocks

Laurence Knott shared this bug 51 days ago
Solved

After the Fieldwork update, the existing save became corrupted on my dedicated server. I created a new save, but we now have server and/or client crashes when placing or grinding certain blocks. There is no clear link between blocks being placed causing the crash; the latest crash was caused by a floodlight.


Save and crash log attached.

Hello Laurence,

Thank you for reaching out on the forum and for providing the log and save file.

We’ve tried to reproduce the issue using the server save you shared, but we were unable to observe the same crash on our side.

Could you please provide some additional information? Did you copy and paste old corrupted save data into a newly created world, or is the shared server save entirely fresh?

Were any MODs previously active on the dedicated server when the issue first occurred, and were later removed while the issue still persisted? If so, it's possible that MOD dependencies remain in the world save files and may still be causing the issue.

Since you've mentioned a client crash, could you confirm whether the issue affects all clients or only specific ones? If possible, please share the client logs as well.

  • Clients/Players can access their log files by typing %appdata% into their Windows search bar and they will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that they just need to follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.

Kind regards,

Hi, this can probably be closed.

The save file was on the server before the update, the fieldwork update caused the whole install to be corrupted, not just that specific save. I had to reinstalled the dedicated server instance, which then fixed the issue.
