Game freezing at "Generating Map for New Encounter" with all mods off

[RandomHero]

I got a quest where pirates set up a weather controller, and to stop permanent Fog, I have to caravan to kill the pirates. But the game hangs at "Generating Map for New Encounter". I have about 12-15 mods that are just regular quality of life things, and 3 of them are for 1.1. I disabled all mods, and it still hangs. I don't see any errors in the debug log with the mods enabled. When I disable the mods, I see a bunch of errors about missing mods, but that's it. And when the map tries to load, I don't see anything because the game seems to be frozen. Might be unrelated, but I've also recently started getting hangs when I exit/exit to menu after saving.

CPU and Memory is low/normal usage when it happens too. My caravan has 19 pawns in it and there are 41 pirates.

Hmm. I loaded a 3 minute earlier save (mods all loaded) and it didn't hang. So I guess my immediate problem is solved, but still seems like a problem with the game.

Hi,
when error's show up at the log window's it is allways a sign that something is wrong.
In this case Rimworld grouses that he can't find the def's at your safegame from all the deactivated mods.
This mean the picture is pointless (but at last you made a good quality screenshot and not a shot with a smartphone :-) ).

But that you encounter some lag/freeze on a raid or when you got a new encounter map is normal.
Rimworld focus to generate the map/raid and the normal map activty got interrupted.
Depend on your progress/wealth status that freeze is minor to a few seconds. That is unavoidable.

When after/during the freeze show up some error's at the logfile then there is something wrong, but mosttimes a mod issue.
When this happen, you should post the logfile ! At the option you find a button "Open saved data folder" where you should find player.log the actual logfile.
When you use Reply button you should see file attachment options.
The logfile normaly include the modlist if you loaded a safegame, otherwhile at the safe location you find the Config folder and inside the ModConfig.xml the modlist (better way then you used).

You don't need it, but you could add Hugslib mod, it offer some feature like upload a complex modlist,patch,logfile and give you a link to share it. (Green "Share logs" button at the logwindow).

And you should verify your mods, i never saw mods like Outfit or Crafting (and couldn't find them at the workshop either).

There were no errors until I turned off the mods, though.

Unfortunately, the freeze is for minutes+ (i waited 3-4 minutes and nothing in the log on screen, so I kill the program)

I will check this out. Thanks.

The mod name has commas in it, so its a bit confusing. It's called "[KV] Save Storage, Outfit, Crafting, Drug, & Operation Settings", which just lets me import/export my storage/configuration from game to game. Hopefully I can get Hugslib which will give a better mod list.

(The problem was resolved by restoring a slightly earlier save file. I don't know why it resolved the problem, though, because the offending save file worked normally in all respects except resolving this map encounter quest.)

Yes Safe storage is familar, didn't know that Kiame used a that long modname.
Hugslib is a very popular mod, you can get it over github or workshop.
And when you are looking for workshop mods as non-steam user you should take a look at:
https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=52498.0

But when no error's show up after/during these freezes then it is hard/impossible to say anything.
And none of your mods should change anything at the quests/encounter.


Permadeath colony, i think you are doomed anyway. You can't experiment much with it anyway.
