Spacestation.lua attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

[SkinSz]

Observed behaviour
Loaded my savegame. Went to the already docked station and switched to the commodities or equipment tab and seen the error.

Expected behaviour
Obviously the GUI should function without issues.

Steps to reproduce
Unknown as I don't know what the cause is. Sounds like someone that understands the code needs to do some digging (I can only read a little bit of powershell and that has nothing to do with a real useful scripting language :> )

Duplicate of both #5149 and your most recent issue #5231. I'll leave this issue open, but it's the same edge-case bug where equipment data isn't properly being initialized with the station object.

Well, I haven't thought of #5231 beeing a big deal as it sorted itself. Further having the game in such an inconsistent state seems to cause crashes entering a new system via a hyperdrive jump.

in my playground setup, this bug is triggered even on creating new games, even ending the game and starting a new the error never resets

its further indication it seems that lua is not reset between games

[joonicks]

this function is a prime suspect (SpaceStation.lua)

Event.Register("onShipDocked", function (ship, station)
	if ship ~= Game.player or SpaceStation.adverts[station] then return end
	createStationMarket(station)
end)

Is this the same error? Got it after landing on a station where there was a slave revolt. Crashed the game but could not repeat it since after a second landing I did not get the error.

If you were playing with the release from July, yes it's probably the same error (and since fixed). If you're playing the most recent development builds then it's most likely #5221.
