Circuitry causes crashes
It crashes right after I put down the toString gate.
It also crashes when I try to build an advanced portrait and just move the hologram around with a build gun.

Fiscit Remote Monitoring / Grafana bugs
* Listen_IP config parameter seems to be ignored by the mod
* Datasources are hardcoded which is pretty bad if someone (like me) decides to use dashoards in their own grafana installation. In that case a datasource name and/or ID (which is kinda even worse) mismatch occurs and you must search & replace all the datasource mentions in all the dashboards. A recommended approach is to use variables to select and template the datasource names into PromQL/SQL queries.
* frmcache seems to be misconfigured: there are no PG_* settings, so it cannot connect to the DB, also it cannot use standard pq library envvars to connect automagically. Need to specify
-pghost $PG_HOST -pgport $PG_PORT -pguser $PG_USER -pgpassword $PG_PASSWORD -pgdb $PG_DB args in the init script.
* frmcache seems to be unable to create a database when applying migrations (just for me?), which is easily fixed by adding a POSTGRES_DB envvar to the postgresql service. The missing depends_on is already added though.
* No dockerfiles, no cache, everything is being compiled on every launch by init scripts instead of only on code update.
And then there are dashboards:
* There are sort of harmless but still annoying errors regarding legacy queries.
* Drop pod dashboard didn't work or displayed only collected pods. AFAIK the error was due to the SQL query case. And it was probably a legacy query thing since I was not able to see the real query in the UI (!) unless I open a Query Inspector or go to the dashboard JSON.
* I've had to modify some queries to make Grafana visualizations and variables work. Unfortunately I don't remember which ones, but there's always the good old 'compare versions' thing. Not all dashboards were checked, but I see a lot of broken stuff (at least half of which was broken by me, no doubt).
P. S. I am willing to submit PRs later.
P. P. S. Yes, this is basically what I do for a living, so please try to forgive me if I'm too hard on authors and contributors 😰20 replies

Game crashes after being launched, even if only SML is installed
It crashes when the spinner animation is being shown during the initial loading. I cannot get to the main menu. Some semi-random actions like removing all mods, verifying game (steam) files, re-installing SML sometimes help, but every time after it seeems to be finally working it stops working after you restart the game.
At the same time my dedicated Linux server feels just fine. A few days ago I was playing with the same mods installed and it worked well.
Maybe (just maybe) it has something to do with the recent Windows 11/.Net updates (KB5044285, KB5044033, KB5045993)?
