Mod Build Failure

[S3rgeus]

I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this while building a mod in ModBuddy:

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Firaxis\ModBuddy\Civ5Mod.targets(129,9): error MSB4018: The "PackageMod" task failed unexpectedly.
SevenZip.SevenZipException: The execution has failed due to the bug in the SevenZipSharp.

I seem to get it most often after adding a new version of a DLL into a mod and pressing build soon after that. (Doesn't occur if I wait 45+ seconds.) Closing and restarting ModBuddy fixes it (build succeeds with no changes after restart), but it's become quite aggravating!

I get this pretty frequently these days, and it's pretty frustrating.

Something that seems to alleviate the issue a bit, at least for me, is to always load your projects by using File -> Open... and manually finding your .civ5sln file to load, rather than using the list of Recent Projects. It's not a foolproof way of preventing it, but I've found it makes it happen far less often.

It looks like this error has been fixed in one of the recent ModBuddy updates. I haven't run into it in a while.
