Random world generation crashes at start of 'saving roads' step

Did it crash or just stop responding? If the latter can you let it sit for a while and see if it catches up?

No, it crashed (hard).  Dropped me back to the desktop where I had to spin up the client to try other attempts.  I understand there are certain steps in the process that appear 'hung', so I let it be & chug away.

Mine just stops responding. anywhere from 80% to 90% on the "Smoothing Street Tiles" 

Reviewing for Linux.

 

@Rocker1078 That's a different thing, and is known. Although it isn't locked up, just leave it alone and it will catch up.

So far I can't reproduce with Ubuntu. I'll try your distro.

I blew it all away (client files, userdata & used the Launcher/TOOLS -> select ALL) & re-installed.

Ran RWG again, blew up

Installed 'simplescreenrecorder' (screen capture)
Ran RWG (tried to duplicate the settings as best as possible)

Completed successfully *hmmm*. 

Doesn't give me the warm/fuzzies, so I'll be trying again after I'm done w/ work.  Maybe the slow-down via the video-capture??  I'll update after a few more test runs.

Log of success:

Ahh sporadic, I see. I'll make some maps on my linux box and see. I've put the word out for other testers with linux distros available to see if they get it too.

Tell you what, if you don't mind share the seed name you use to generate the ones that break + the size

Hey, someone had an idea to make sure your swapfile is set to 8gb, try that.

@i_robot73announced a new 10k RWG server in Discord just now, so I assume they've gotten it going.

I used the server to gen, not the client (which is where I'm getting this issue).

Here's my gen from A20 I tried to replicate

I'll give that a whirl.  I haven't run w/ a swap in a while (running w/ 32GB)

Well, I setup a 12GB swap file.  Give it another go...By damn, it worked! (~10min)

 

I'll give it another few attempts but this one was most promising (appeared to hang on 1s Saving Roads/final data, but I held tough to see it through ;D )

Give that man a beer, whomever suggested

Ran another few...all gen's properly.  Thanks again for the time/assist

Thanks for letting me know that worked. WIsh Linux distros would automatically set the swap file larger <.< Have fun!
