[MOD FIX] IndieStone Anti Deletion-Crash Fixinator SQL

Important note: Unfortunately, pre-made scenarios may have problems with this code as it seems units are placed on the map via their IDs and not their type names. Thanks to primordial stew for pointing this out. To avoid this you can remove the unit section from the XML (just search for unit and delete the 4 line segment for units and unitclasses. I'm not entirely sure actually that units cause crashes anyway, I think it's mainly techs, policies etc that do. Basically if you have problems, trim out as much as possible and keep only what types you're actually deleting in your mod.

Hello all. In Civ at the moment there is an issue where if you delete something, say for example a technology or a unit or a policy branch or something. It will cause instability and crashes during game.

In my investigations getting completely new tech trees to work with our tech tree editor (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=395209) I've realised that this is because the deleted thing has an ID associated with it, and Civ uses these IDs to grab the objects when iterating through with arrays.

For e.g.

Code:

for unit in Game.Units() do

end

behind the scenes somewhere, it's looking for unit 0, then unit 1, then unit 2 and so on. When it reaches your missing unit's ID, it will crash the game because it's trying to operate on a null item.

To fix?

Add this SQL file to your Mod, adding a Mod Action to OnModActivated, UpdateDatabase for the SQL (and making sure it's the LAST thing in the action list)

It will go through every table that uses IDs and store them in a temporary table, then use this to generate incrementing ID values to put back into the first table, to ensure they all go from 0 to whatever with no gaps.

This should make your mod safe to add or delete entries from any table in the game without crashes, as it covers every iterable GameInfo type and at the bottom of your mod action list will happen after all your mod's changes.

Also, in cases of multiple mods... providing all mods that delete or add to these tables use this, then it will work, as the first will reassign the IDs when it is activated, then the second will redefine the IDs when it is activated, and so on. Meaning whichever order they activate, you will have perfectly incrementing IDs for all the data each mod added or removed.

Note if one mod doesn't use it, however, and deletes rows of GameInfo tables, then there are no guarantees what order they will activate, so if they activate after one with this fix, they could then bugger up the fixed IDs. That said, such a mod is unlikely to be released as it would likely crash with or without other mods.

Note in the case of technologies, there seems to be some importance in the ordering of them. For this reason I put an order command to order them by their X position on the tech tree (ORDER BY GridX ASC), to make sure later techs don't have a lower ID than a prerequisite tech (which was causing crashes in itself) so the same may be true for other tables, but I've not managed to check as there are so many of them. If you get a crash down to deleting things when using this SQL you could try putting your own sort command in the SQL as this may fix it.

It would be a good idea to check your tables data in the database (Core or Debug in 'cache' directory in My Docs/My Games/Civ 5/) using a tool like this: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=386494 before and after activating your mod and going into Single Player, just to make sure it's taken effect. For one you could have mistyped the mod action, but more likely since there was a s**tton of these I couldn't possibly test them all, and I may have made an error somewhere in adding them.

Now onto the SQL!

Hope this helps! Let me know if you needed to add any additional info such as an ordering command for any of the other types, so I can add it here.

 

freak.

 

shwaa?

 

meant as a compliment^^

 

awesome

 

I love you
(meant simply as a HUGE compliment)

THANKS!

Edit: Actually, what Putmalk says

 

I will test this out.

If it works, I love you.

 

Great! Just remember that if you delete items wholesale, you still need to deal with any dependencies on those items in both Lua and XML/SQL. For Lua, you can at least find those references using WindowsGrep to search Assets folder (I can't for the life of me figure out Windows searches). For XML/SQL (ie, the database) dependencies, there is a lot of discussion of this in my thread here, most especially Gedrin's post #21 and my examples in post #33.

 

Yeah cool, I should have mentioned that really. I'm working on a tool that should take care of that. The tech editor currently does this for tech trees but the system should work for anything with some work.

 

good stuff....yea I already had realised a the problem with ID's and dropping rows when I was doing Eras...had to drop all the Era rows and reassign all IDs in the correct order manually, or else it would assign IDs starting from 6 . But having the technology codes not in order (by gridX) never seemed to be a problem. Also the tech tree will break if two technologies from different eras have the same gridX position.

 

Just dropped by to say that I confirm, I love you

I have changed my mod form to, well, mod form and it started. With the removal of most of the techs and adding 80 new ones, cutting few eras worth of buildings and units etc.

I just deleted all tables from civs, leaders, traits, units, unitclasses, promotions, buildings, buildingclasses and technologies, then added new files created by my xlsm editor, then I have added crash fixinator.

Voila, no crash, I could play the mod

I am going back to expanding the mod, will post details later, probably in Pazyryk's thread on gutted mod.

 

Beautiful. Nice work.

 

Thanks a ton

Nice that some tables start with 0 and others with 1....

Since the units/buildings/etc.. can be reordered, does this mean the only good way to add these to a scenario is using lua? In civ4 the map used the unit name, but is this still done? It will be very punishing to those of us with pre made maps who are also deleting things.

Am still playing around, but I've got a battle map with a bunch of units set down prior to adding this, and while it still looks right in WB it CTDs in civ5. If all the units are deleted then it starts fine.

My other map has a bunch of cities and no units, and that starts up fine. And the units show up fine in the pedia, and look good in sql.

This will be released soon, and alongside this fix will make removing things a cinch.

 

Crumbs. Never thought of that. Bah.

Try removing just the unit / unitclasses sections of the SQL? Should still allow tech modding etc without buggering your scenario?

 

Nice utility again!

I tried removing several units in my mod, but it caused Saved Games to get screwed up and they wouldn't restore. I think it was when I removed the Settler that it went too far, but I also removed the UU's for both France and England. Therefore I am also looking forward to your removal addition to the Tech Tree Editor! Keep it up.

 

Is this saved games saved using the same mod code exactly?

i.e. no changes in between loading / saving?

 

It was using the same versions of the files.

I was unclear in my previous post. The save game problem I had was not while using your utilities. I had it before I downloaded the Tech Tree editor and the sql here, and could only solve it removing the file that deleted these said units.

I was really referring to your note about not being sure about removing units would cause problems and that it's mostly Techs and Policies and such. The removal of units does indeed seem to cause problems and it is because of this, I am waiting for your removal utility where we'll be able to remove stuff safely.

 

Weee! I didn't break anything!

 

No. Instead your Tech Tree editor works very well. My mod is entirely scenario-driven, but I've had no problems at all with the units in my scenarios or anything else, and I didn't remove the references to Units in your sql either. I am just adding techs to the Medieval Era, but I'm not touching the Tech Tree otherwise at all.
