Got wrong scene code 22 at the start after a round of survival.
Oh no! This should never happen... ;)
But seriously, thank you for reporting the bug! Code 22 points to the tutorial system. I went through the source code, finding possible ways of creating a constellation, where this might lead to an error, but to no avail.
Do you remember anything that is related to the tutorial? Did you just click "continue" (or press enter) or did you abort it? Did it actually happen in the first round? Did you re-activate the tutorial at any point in the game?
Anything can help identifying the bug.
It did happen in the first round and wasn't game breaking. I could continue after, but it was spooky. I was going through the tutorial, and it occurred right after the survival phase and before the propagation phase. I had selected the Amorphs as my player race. It being a day ago I don't remember if there was anything specific that caused it.
Good to hear that it wasn't game breaking! Thank you for the additional info. I will look into the code a bit further and at least change the logic such that you don't get an error if the game manages to recover from the problem (as it was in your case). The error should only pop up if the game crashes fully (which should really never happen).
