Summary0023065: Frequent (roughly hourly) crashes under Linux
DescriptionI experience frequent crashes in AI War II under Linux. I'm running Ubuntu 19.10 with xmonad. My graphics card is a Radeon 5700 XT. The crashes occur under both Vulcan and OpenGL. They have been occuring since I started running AI War II under Linux, around late January / early February.

The crashes occur roughly hourly, and only during active gameplay (never while the game is paused). When I reload an autosave, it's common for me to have another 1-2 crashes, but I don't have a fully repeatable test case.

I autosave every minute, because otherwise the crashes are frequent enough that it's effectively unplayable.

Nothing appears in ArcenDebugLog.txt related to the crashes.

When I run the app from the command line, it exits with code 134 and says zsh: abort (core dumped) ./AIWar2Linux.x86_64


I believe this output from Unity's Player.log is related to the crash:

(Filename: ./Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 48)

The issue has occurred identically in every of the (several) versions of AI War II I've run under Linux, since late January / early February. They also occur in the current, newest version. I've also played several dozen hours under Windows on a friend's PC, and that was entirely stable.

Is this still an issue for you? We've made a lot of upgrades to the game since then. Overall this is rock solid on linux; one of our main devs is doing his work and testing on a linux machine. This definitely hasn't been a generalized issue for folks.

Nope, it's been rock solid since before the latest major release. The instability persisted for some minor versions beyond the report, but has been gone for ages now, as far as I recall.

Sweeet! Thanks for the confirmation.

Sorry this got lost in the shuffle for so long.
