(test build v1.31) Broken save after major Advent bug

from Sins2 Forums

Was testing out Advent to see if old bugs were still present but while using new Unity abilities on a battle I saw at a distant star system all 5 abilities were suddenly disabled. I don't remember exact message but hovering over it stated "abilities disabled while crippled" which should never happen for Unity abilities. I am unsure what triggered this, I was on a phase jump with my fleet including a Coronata Titan while having over 1500 Unity meter. A few minutes later all my Unity abilities were gone as seen on the image below.

Closed the game and attempted to reload save but it stopped and a window opened with the following message:

ASSERT(entity != nullptr)

 

version=1.31.0 (202)

log=C:\Users\Zeiram\AppData\Local\sins2\logs\sins2_log_2476.txt

 

The only mod I had on was skybox related which never conflicted with my plays.

Hello! The team is aware of this issue and actively working to resolve, thank you for sharing these details, any additional related files you can supply like saves attempted are appreciated.

Not sure how I can post log files here but it's nice to know that a possible fix is underway.

I can confirm this on 18 of December. I have always started my games with the Progenitor Mothership and I believe this bug might be related to the Unity Meditation ability because the Unity points from the Progenitor are behaving in unexpected ways:

- If you start with a Progenitor you can't use Unity points before unlocking the first tier of harmony, is this a feature?

- Sometimes the Unity points from Meditation are not recognized right after upgrading the ability.

- The Meditation ability description does not match its current effect, it still says that it grants maximum Focus, which is not the case after the update.

In my particular game I had 2 Progenitors and a Halcyon and around mid game the Unity mechanic just stopped working like "Not usable while crippled". 

 

Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the additional details, I'll be sure to share them with the team, but it likely won't be directly addressed until after the upcoming holiday
