[Bug]: Viewing Cargo Drone Encyclopedia kills the map

Post by Kumba42 »

What happens:
Trying to view the encyclopedia entry for the cargo drone consumable will "crash" the map module in the game. Meaning, you cannot re-open the map at all. You have to quicksave, then quickload to get it working again.

Steps to reproduce:
  1. Dock at the wharf in Argon Prime
  2. Activate the map
  3. Find the Argon shipyard and right-click -> Buy ships
  4. Select "L" for ship size
  5. Select "Incarcatura Vanguard (Freighter)" as the ship class
  6. Go to Consumables
  7. Right-click on "Cargo Drones"
  8. Select "Encyclopedia"
Note: I did not test multiple variations of this yet. Might be the same regardless of shipyard. I also didn't try to view the entry while docked at a shipyard, just while at a wharf and using the map to access a shipyard's buy ships menu.
  • Edit:Trying to access the encyclopedia entry from the shipyard itself still crashes out the map module. Save/reload will fix that as well.
