Hello everyone, in the system Canti (3,5,-2), any attempt to reach Mccullough's Grave (Ibarrez), ends up in an "Appcrash". Any idea or help? I'm using win7/32bit.

2 things spring to mind:With a class 3 military drive I can jump 81.5 Light Years in the Amphiesma Courier!!!Holy cow Canti is a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG star system. When I jumped in I was over 1014 AU away from Ibarrez :suicide:I... I don't think I can test this for long enough tonight :tease: I just can't leave the PC on until morning when I might have gotten... half way :biggrin: Hmm, no need it seems, I get a divide by zero whilst still 993.78AU away. Looks like I will be debugging it before morning! Andy

Ok, I've submitted a patch for review that... so far... seems to fix the issue I had. It's still testing but I'm now down to just ~943 AU from the destination and I'll leave it running whilst I get ready for bed. Once the patch is accepted it'll get into the following build so you will need to grab a new build of the game when that happens. My advice would be to check when this pull request gets accepted and then grab the build the following day :) One other thing, I get very long pauses when flying across a star system this big.I don't know why they happen but the game hasn't crashed it's just temporarily stuck. My advice is to avoid taking jobs to systems this big ;) Andy

I couldn't reproduce it myself, but its a good defensive patch anyway so I've merged it. It'll be in tomorrow's build - just missed the cut for today.

Thank you fluffyfreak for solving the problem!With version 20131109 I could make the whole way to Ibarrez. Unfortunatly the docking bay 1 is inside a mountain of this asteroid, so my hull integrity was down by smashing on ground. Was lucky to reach another bay for repairing ;-). Canti D is a really impressive read sun! Best regards!

Yeah, that sounds like another bug (bay inside a mountain) that has bugged us for ages! :)Glad you made it and that the bug is fixed!
