UniginePtr.h pointer is NULL error

[Walters.Robert]

I randomly started getting this error late yesterday.  I'm stumped as to what is causing it.  I've tried reverting my code to before I started receiving the error and it still pops up.  I'm running 2.9.0.2

Hello Robert,

By randomly you menat there's no any pattern?

Usually pointer errors occurs when some node or asset you're reaching via code is miising. Have you made any chabges to the scene recently?

Thanks.

Randomly as in I couldn't see any reason for the error, however, the behavior was consistent in that it crashed every single time.  I had moved a node to act as a child in another node but even after reverting back to the original scene I kept receiving the error.  I ended up reverting to a previous version of the project that I had as a backup.  If it happens again and I can pin-point it I'll let you know.

Hello Robert!

Try to recall the objects (inherited from Smart Ptr) that you added in the code, probably some of them were incorrectly initialized.

So I've created an additional world with a different terrain to load in my simulator (running 2.9.0.2).

When I run the original world in either master or slave mode no problem.  When I run the new world in master mode no problem.  When I run the new world in slave mode I'm getting the pointer error.

Unigine fatal error: c:\unigine sdk browser\sdks\sim_per_channel_windows_2.9.0.2\include\unigineptr.h:54: Assertion: 'pointer && "Unigine::Ptr::operator->(): pointer is NULL"'

I'm selecting the world to load through the .bat file

Hi Robert,

Have you tried to build debug version of your app and do a step-by-step debugging in IDE? If you can't find the root cause, could you please send us your project (data and source directories) with a build instructions and reproduction steps?

Thanks!
