Can't recall this having ever happened before (possibly extremely rarely), but the game actually crashed on me. Thankfully it was while playing the BOTM 194 Lockdown game, whose deadline passed long ago, so it's not as serious as if it was an active game. But it does make me concerned about it possibly happening during active BOTMs, or HoF play. If it did, the game may well have been disallowed.
The exact moment it happened was when BW was researched, and the popup for it was about to occur, and possibly a resource showing up. I don't know if there is anything very special for that in this particular game that prompted the game to crash (sounds unlikely, but you never know).
As mentioned, I am playing on Linux. That may raise some eyebrows and "ofc it will crash then", but the game has been incredibly stable and I've never had issues with it. It may still be related to Linux of course, or it can be a regular crash that would have happened on a Windows rig too. I don't know.
The backtrace may not say much to anybody, but I've attached it here in case somebody are able to draw something sensible from it.
The attached screenshot reveals map information about BOTM 194, which you may not want to see if you haven't played it yet, but intend to do so. The submission deadline was a few months back.
If anybody knows why this happened or how I can remedy things so it won't happen again, it would be much appreciated. Would hate a game to get disallowed due to a crash, after spending 20-30-40 hours on it.
My system is Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon.
System info bin
