No errorlog was created, but the unhandled error pop up can be found [here](https://pastebin.com/52XATSvk) this happened on the windows BOTD after engulfing “Kytinsonceae vister” (on the [attached save](https://filebin.net/yljy6j013my1xw61), eject the cell to verify) i have absolutely no idea what “AABB” is so cannot give any info as to why it happened ---

i tried to reload the save which then crashed and did produce an [error log](https://pastebin.com/sBgtHavQ) ---

I’m pretty sure this is a very common bug with little to no impact on gameplay ---

Yes, this has been a very prevalent problem for years. It has not real effect on gameplay that I’m aware of so this gets no bugfixing priority. In fact I basically also myself see the same error print almost each time I’m testing something else in the game. I was a bit surprised that I didn’t find an existing issue being open about this. So I guess I can open an issue to track this but it’s not likely to be fixed anytime soon: > > > Is a very common error log message that happens.

Other than the graphics missing for endosome and that error it seems engulfing otherwise works fine after loading such a save. * * * Edit: to answer this: > [@Scyobi\_Empire](#): > > No errorlog was created, but the unhandled error pop up can be found [here](https://pastebin.com/52XATSvk) ```auto exception: Condition "p_arrays.size() != ARRAY_MAX" is true. ``` Is actually a _totally unrelated error_ to the AABB issue. And I’m pretty sure it is a random engine issue so it is very related to: > > > \### Describe the bug > > I was playing as usual, clicked the reproduce button, but …the editor screen has loaded without anything. > > \### To Reproduce > > 1.
