Summary0024991: Exception when "The monarch" outgard dies
DescriptionWhenever "The Monarch" outgard dies, it throws a fatal error. I'll attach the exception from the log.
I'll also attach a save if you want to call it and try. I suggest calling it in the "Steyliff" system, it'll die quickly.
TagsNo tags attached.

I'm adding this save because when you unpause the game, the fatal error will trigger

zeus, there seems to be a problem with this outguard group
5/19/2021 11:40:06 AM 3.000 SINGLEP Could not find group data for Starburst #93459 Outguard on Steyliff

This error is causing all of the problems. Something is wrong with this outguard.

Think I know what it is.

This group spawns a unit called a "Viceroy", which is copied from the "Splash Cruiser". That Cruiser has these lines:

            build_points_per_damage_taken="1.5"
            unit_to_make_with_build_points_from_damage_taken="Starburst"

Outguard Groups break if they try to spawn units like this, or via Drone guns. There was a fix put in almost 3 years ago, for the "Automated Construction Swarm" which spawns things on death.

Commit 3472, near bottom of the commit message:

* Protections and logging have been put in that should solve the problem of nullref exceptions after a mercenary unit spawns another mercenary unit on death.
** This hasn't been tested, so if it still breaks in the next version then we'll need a savegame, but that wasn't possible prior to now.

And above the Mini Automated Construction Bot unit XML:

" <!--Note from Chris: the game will find the proper faction for these by using the tag, which
   matches "Automated Construction Swarm" as the InternalName of the Outguard faction we want to add them to.-->"

*Fixed the Monarch outguard (the viceroy, specifically) from causing the faction from shutting down. Removed the starburst from it so it doesn't trigger drones the outguard faction can't handle
