Even more errors appeared when I loaded a different save. Factions shut down from fatal error: 7.

For some reason these wouldn't upload.

From a quick glance, it looks like the game is not able to find some xml in general. I'd do a verify of your steam files and the problem will probably go away.

Chris, I've hit this error running on my dev build as well. It looks like the problem is that after reloading the XML, the game can't seem to read the ExternalConstants for a faction.

I verified my steam files, and I don't see these particular errors when starting an existing save file.

I encountered a different issue when attempting to begin a custom start. Not sure if this is related.

The error with the custom start was a separate thing, and fixed in the prior build.

Thanks!

* Fixed a bug in the new hot-reloading code where, after changing some mods or expansions, various "External Data" fields would not be able to be loaded completely properly. This was pretty much just limited to the "custom data" that is added to those fields by a variety of factions and mods.
** Restarting the game in prior versions would fix it, but now it just works correctly from the get-go.
