             Bug #: 32541
           Summary: Endless Space crashes when activating certain options
                    in the menu

terminal output

The game Endless Space uses the Unity game engine and Mono.

In the options menu there is an option called "Auto Upgrade Ship Design in
Queue" which is disabled by default. If I enable the option then the game
crashes. The crash happens immediately when clicking in the checkbox, you don't
have to accept the change by clicking on <Apply>.
It should be noted that the crash happens only when you activate the option
from the main menu (without starting a new game). If you invoke the menu while
a game is running and activate that option, then the game doesn't crash.

Workaround: winetricks ie6. With a native shlwapi.dll the crash doesn't happen.
Let me know what debug log would be of help.

It could be a feature of the Unity game engine that whenever Wine crashes the
backtrace doesn't show up in the terminal but in the game's own log file
(output_log.txt).

There are bug #31336 and bug #32302 about crashes in the game. If you look at
the backtraces in those bugs, you should see that they're very similar to the
one attached here.

Tested with wine-1.5.20-22-ga701528.
