I was performing a manual save, and i think I hit the escape key while it was in progress. Unsure if that was related or my base is just that cursed.
I got a popup about it failing.
Trying to open the save gives me an i/o error.

Can your reproduce this?

no

Thanks for the report. Looking at the log - it appears to be crashing when saving is almost completed. It has finished saving everything and was attempting cleanup and at that point it crashed. I don't see how it could possibly ever crash in that scenario since everything in the cleanup stage is simply clearing values on things it already touched and validated during the write-to-disk stage.

Without a way to reproduce it, I can only guess what went wrong. My guess is memory corruption and or CPU instruction execution failure. If you do know of a way to reproduce it reliably - please let us know. Otherwise there's nothing we can do.
