Lightning Strikes Causing Errors (log)

[Magicmoon]

Lately the game has been throwing errors during thunderstorms. I think the error happens when lightning is trying to strike something. Cancel does nothing, and reset stops the rain altogether.

Sometimes the lightning strike and resultant fires do occur, other times the error is thrown.

This issue is believed to affect some older trees specifically, especially CC trees, but a few Maxis "trees", like the infamous Trellis-tree, may be affected as well. Those trees are simply incompatible with lightning-lots.

You could, of course, just turn the weather off with Paladin's weathercontroller, and then turn it back on again.
