Summary0002649: Crash upon proceeding to ship or weapon loadout after manually aborting a mission
DescriptionAfter aborting a mission from "ESC" menu and loading it again, proceeding to either ship or weapons loadout causes a crash. In debug, this warning message appears:
Invalid model number -1 requested. Please post the call stack where an SCP coder can see it.

Attempt to proceed past it causes a crash.
Steps To Reproduce1. Load a mission (I've tested it on Dimensional Eclipse, Talos Station mission).
2. Exit the mission by the "ESC" menu.
3. Reload the mission.
4. Proceed to ship or weapon loadout.
Additional InformationI suspect that this bug is related to the way the game saves selected loadout, since resaving the mission in FRED after any minor change results in this bug disappearing once you abort the mission from the "ESC" menu again. I've found no other way to get around this bug once it's triggered.
TagsNo tags attached.

Garrrgh, we're seeing a bevy of odd mission-restart-changes-the-world bugs in Diaspora start popping up.

Although it's perhaps incorrect to say they are popping up, as some reports put them as far back as early 2011.

This description sounds very similar.

If the bug can be reproduced though, this might be the easiest place to track it down. It's certainly a lot easier than trying to track down all the reasons a turret might not fire.

Now that I think about it, I wonder if this is the reason I was getting bloody strange behaviour with the key-pressed SEXP this weekend.

Any progress on this?

I'm still of the opinion that this bug was killed shortly before Diaspora was released. We certainly haven't seen the issue in Diaspora any more.

That's good news. Dragon also tells me that he doesn't recall seeing it recently. I've asked him to check for sure with a nightly build and post here with his findings.

Tested with both BP builds and latest nightly. It seems that the bug's been squished. On Dimensional Eclipse mission 03-19, on both builds exiting the mission from the escape menu and going back didn't cause the crash. I've also checked the BP build on my own test mission which was prone to that bug (the nightly is incompatible with the modpack) and wasn't able to replicate it. So, it seems that it's been taken care of.

Awesome. :) I'll count that as a fix.
