[b24] Crash on new game creation

[haenlomal]

Steps to replicate:
1. Start a new game with a character that starts in the Trollmire. (Personally, I used a Higher Fighter)

Expected Results:
New game is started successfully.

Observed Results:
Game hangs. (Not 100% reproducible)

Comments:
This is the second time this has happened to me. I forgot to save the log file the first time, but here seems to be the relevant messages from the logfile the second time around.

Code: Select all

Loading tile	tactical_self.png
Loaded texture for particles: /data/gfx/weather/grey_cloud_07.png => 191
L(1532478) Particle updater error 5e53fe8 (5, 7): attempt to call a number value

The updater error part is repeated over and over in the logfile, a modified version of which is attached. The original logfile is 973kb long. This attachment is 150kb long. So that means that about 823kb of the logfile is the updater error line repeated over and over again!
