NullReferenceException on custom map server

[Lil Boi Loui]

Hi,

 

I've been working on a custom map for some days now. I took a procedural then modified it on Rust Edit.

The server was running just fine before and after the update but now when I try to open the server with the custom map it just stop loading at this error: NullReferenceException: object reference not set to an instance of an object. I've been trying to find a solution on the internet but none are working.

Here's the full error from the log:

I'm new at this so I don't really know what all this is.

Thanks.

Hey Lil Boi Loui,

Did you update Oxide and RustEdit.dll?

Hi Skirow,

Yes I did update Oxide and RustEdit.dll

Thanks.

Most likely you have an entity on your map, try removing all entity / broken prefabs from the map, rename it and start your server.

PM a link to your map if you want. I will take a look at it.

I regenerated the map, redid all of my modifications and it works now. Probably something with entities like Disguise said.

Thanks guys!
