Title: Error thrown on startup
Post by: Afterthought on July 16, 2019, 07:19:05 AM
Hi, I get a red error whenever I start the game. Have tried reinstalling, deleting the core folder, and then verifying the files on Steam, but it still shows up. Comes up with no mods.

RimWorld 1.0.2282 rev726
Verse.Log:Message(String, Boolean)
RimWorld.VersionControl:LogVersionNumber()
Verse.Root:CheckGlobalInit()
Verse.Root:Start()
Verse.Root_Entry:Start()

Didn't know how much of the log to include, can include more if needed.

Can no-one offer any light at all? I've just been ignoring it, but without knowing anything about what is causing the error, I have no knowledge of what might not be working properly.
