Hello,

got the new Train DLC and researched it, but I am not able to build it, as the icons do not appear.
Also have more issues with the game crashing.

I also have a black screen appearing in the data list.

My game also crashes when I want to delete something in one dome it is always crashing in this one Dome.
I can't change anything in there.

I hope you are able to help and fix this.
thank you

Can you replicate the issue?

Neither are known issues so far as I've seen.

If yo run a Verify operation in Epic, does it find anything to fix?

Is this in an existing colony from before the update, or also in a new one you might start now as a test?

 

[Sam_CZecS]

No it does not find anything to fix.

After the update I started a new colony.

 

[LukeHro]

@Sam_CZecS can you add the log and a save please

 

[Sam_CZecS]

How? Couldn’t find it.

 

[LukeHro]

You can attach files here or a link to some file sharing service.
I don't have a mac but according to google those should be in: ~/Library/Application Support/Surviving Mars/
If is an intrinsic problem on mac, may not reproduce if I try to use the saves on windows

 

[Sam_CZecS]

here the save

 

[Sam_CZecS]

I am not able to upload the log: "Oops! We ran into some problems."

 

[Sam_CZecS]

here a link to the data, I guess the 800 mb are to big to upload here?

Will check, 800M of log is definitely a problem in there....

 

[LukeHro]

I can see the issue when loading the save you attached on windows/steam but didn't got to the bottom of it.
Otherwise the cause of the huge log is the "remote farming" issue that, for now, is fixed in the patch mod you can get from here (on epic) https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/42901/Any
Is obvious you ran into it cause you couldn't build stations but don't know why that yet. Unfortunately at this point your game is bugged because of it more than just not able to build stations but the patch mod should also heal it once the game is loaded with it enabled.
Sorry for the inconvenience and still looking into the primary issue.

Any chance that you had loaded an older game made without Martian Express and then hit "Restart Map"? Seems that in such case the techs appear but from the building menu point of view is still not considered as started with new DLCs

I bought the dlc and I had a old save game, but I deleted it and started a new game, as I had not played it for some time and wanted to restart a new game with the new content

 

[LukeHro]

You started a new game from the main menu going through selecting the sponsor, commander, etc, choosing the cargo and location?
Is again like not seeing the stations and track in the build menu if you try to start another new game?

 

[Sam_CZecS]

Yes.
I tried to start a new game and they were now available.

But when I go back in the saved game it is not available.

[...] But when I go back in the saved game it is not available.

It's a proper mess that you start playing, see the add-ons at some point, think the Martian Express will resolve your distribution issues, you purchase it just to find out you can't use it on a saved game.... without LukeHro's mod: mods .paradoxplaza. com/mods/42827/Any (Sorry, one is not allowed to post a link to the mods place, well done security admin)
