Game crashes when I click into the League Reports Home Page

[Syd Thrift]

Below is the offending-looking part of the debug log. It looks like it's just the League Reports Home; I've been able to access the "Under the Knife" and the Injury Log pages from the drop-down dialog successfully without a crash. I was previously seeing this happen only sometimes from May 18 to the 24th in my save but now it's always occurring. I've made a backup if you all need it. This is a brand new save for 22; in fact, the league is only about 5 months old in game time.

This doesn't appear to be happening anymore after the latest patch, although to be perfectly honest I'm not sure if it was the patch or if there was just an asset that couldn't be loaded on the League Reports Home page that now isn't asking to be loaded anymore. I guess we'll see if it persists next season...

[Syd Thrift]

Nope, still seeing it periodically when opening HTML pages. I’m not seeing any rhyme or reason. I did turn trace logging back on so that when this occurs again hopefully I’ll have something to show for it. The league isn’t very large so it shouldn’t chunk things down too much.

Just happened again when I advanced to the date Managers of the Year were named. I'm saving daily (since I've had numerous crashes now) and the point where it crashes is exactly the same as before:

Unfortunately the trace there doesn't tell anything specific what might be happening. If the issue is repeatable on a certain day, could you upload your files (https://support.ootpdevelopments.com...p-developments) and we can have a look? There's likely something going on on a specific day why the league report is failing to load a player or coach.

[Syd Thrift]

Yeah, the last time this happened was on the day the Manager of the Year award was announced. One of the managers has non-traditional characters in his name and that might be the root cause. I was able to open the league reports home page the next day and that particular was no longer one of the top 3. I do not have this latest crash saved as a backup but I do have the first one I listed; I’ll push that out to you all shortly. I believe that save will crash the moment you open League Reports Home (don’t advance a day).

[Syd Thrift]

I've copied the file (League of Nations.lg.zip) to your FTP site.

[Matt Arnold]

Thanks! Yeah, it looks like there was an issue with some characters. We'll fix it up for the next patch.

[Syd Thrift]

Oh no! Is Little Bobby Tables in trouble again???
