As the title says. Runtime error appears and it had to terminate the program. The non-SDL version. The latest SDL version works fine but the curses version not.

EDIT: build #389 didn’t work either. Latest build that worked for me was #386 (non-SDL)

I’m getting the same thing, for what it’s worth.

This should be fixed in the next merge.

Fixing crash-bugs is (somewhat) fun 🙂

Was this merged into the Git repo? I just downloaded the latest build, it compiles without issue, but I get a segfault on startup. I’m on a Mac trying to use the curses version, but I’m wondering if this bug applies to all builds.

It looks like this doesn’t fix it for me. I tarred up my save folder and deleted the files there, but I still get a segfault before it even loads the splash screen. I’m trying compiling with different optimization levels (i.e. not using -O3), but nothing has worked yet.
