Not sure if these were intended but:

1. Chaos Weaver has both Chaos and Magic Bolts. Also, they're 3-range instead of BMage standard 4 (I assume because Chaos Eater is 3-range due to being a Melee Mage)
   
2. Most of the new units don't seem properly scaled to their expected Tier/Unit damage levels.

Thanks!
1. Strange, I removed the ability, sometimes they seem to reappear. I'll remove it again. As for the range, I'll play around with the unit and i'll see if I can up the range if it needs it.

2. If you can mention which specific units, it helps. Some of them have hidden stats such as armor penetration. But yeah, I definitely didn't scale a few of them yet as I decided to up their tier from 2-3 before uploading.

CTD on New map load but existing saves works for me.

@Sparks @MadGAD just to clarify, these are both with only this mod enabled? I haven't had any crashed yet myself, but I'll look into it.

Please check everything with vanilla as well

Thanks for posting these with the comments. None seem to be related to the mod though as far as I can tell. It doesn't touch anything connected to any of these except perhaps the last one, but I don't have any racial unit with no race.

People are still having a lot of crashes with vanilla and the way that the game loads information from mods is pretty convoluted, so maybe try verifying your game files and deleting your logs and game saves that you don't plan to go back to. I have had old saves get corrupted and cause crashes on newer games lmao

Crashes on new game still, just checked with just your mod running, all files verified.

Works fine with 86 mods if I disable yours as well, and works fine vanilla, so it's something in your mod.

It seems to be failing during generation, so my guess is it's trying to pull something from your mod and generate it as a unit, do you have a placeholder unit with no assigned race left somewhere in there?

Verifying files doesn't always fix things with AOW4 sadly. There were 3 times just on vanilla that I had to do a full reinstall and clear my game files from the computer to get the game to work.

When creating a unit, I start with an existing unit's template, so race is automatically assigned. I've been trying to recreate the crash by starting several new games with different settings and I haven't been able to. I'm not saying that it's definitely not my mod, but I do doubt that it is. I haven't touched anything related to those crash reports. The things in your crash all have to due with locations and vanilla non-faction units that are meant to spawn there.

The game also shouldn't be spawning any of my units. I believe it uses a default template for unit spawning, not a randomized set. Also, if the crash is happening consistently, then that would further discount it as it should only be an occasional and very rare crash for it to be generating one of my units if they were selected at random. But regardless, they all have their culture tags. My units are vanilla units copied, given different modularities (appearances), and different stats/abilities. It should be compatible with anything that doesn't change the native sunderer and warrior appearances (even this shouldn't cause crashes, just inconsistency of appearance) or the evolution paths of some of the core units, which no other mods have touched yet as far as I'm aware.

So why is your game only crashing with my mod enabled? Impossible to tell from your crash logs unfortunately. All I can recommend is to delete all the files from your game folder and your mod folder. The game folder will reinstall automatically on startup and you can reinstall the mods pretty easily too. If that still doesn't work, maybe reinstall the game.

I was finally able to recreate the crash after about 15 game starts of testing other things with the mod. I think I already fixed it (I had a unit using a hero figure, which could while I thought this would only affect modularity, may set it as a hero in the game generation even though it's not a hero tag). I'm not 100% sure that this fixed it, but I at least haven't been able to recreate the crash and I tried using the same default map to get the same spawners.

If you're still getting the crash, please tell me on which map if it's a default map, which settings if it's custom, and if you still experience the crash on different maps with different settings. Also the frequency of the crash. Is/was it every time?

The mod seems to be working perfectly now, so whatever you did has fixed the issue, so I think it may have been related to that, thanks for looking into it, love the work you've done on this mod. :)

I don't know if this has been addressed, but it should be spelled, Halberdier, not how it is spelled on the page advertising the units.

@Pelias That’s funny, I spelt it right in all of the unit data in the mod but not on the display name tag haha. I’ll update soon as I can figure out how to fix a corrupted acp

Ok! I wasn't sure, and I was being lazy. Proofreading is the boring cousin of innovation! ;)
