a EDB puzzling error

[Seth Krn3ll]

Can't understand what is wrong now with a minor issue, maybe someone can help.

I am adding some region-markers buildings to EDB, and they all works perfectly BUT the gondor one.

If I add the gondorian ones, game and campaign loads fine but when I quit the game appears a "RTW crashed" error. Not really a major issue but pretty annoying. Moreover, this ending error may hide some other important error messages, and I would love to have them in check.

I first thought maybe I hit the buildings limit, but its not, I can add more or cut some and it does not affect the error.

I then made some tentative changing names, levels, capabilities to find out what was triggering it and to my surprise i find out the problem is the "carthage," reference.

If I just change it to any other faction or I simply remove it (both from bonus and building requirement) the error disappears.

So i thought maybe that was a new limit of the game, something like a maximum number of references to a faction in EDB. In my EDB there are now 215 occurrences of "carthage," references, excluding the "gondor region" ones. I tried removing some from other buildings, but again, that does not affect the error.

So now I'm puzzled... suggestions anyone?

Not had the message you describe, iiuyc, but you are aware of problems associated with the carthaginian culture I assume?

Dol Guldur you're my hero!

I feel a bit dumb indeed, because I had a similar error months ago and i solved it exactly by modding the DUB and then i just forgot about that file... Enough to check it and no more error on exiting :)

Thanks again.
