Bug #5055
"<" and ">" in vessel/flag name corrupts the save-file
100%
Description
Game Version: 1.0.2 (the bug-tracker here only allows to chose 1.0.1)
OS: Linux/Xubuntu 64Bit
Mods: No Mods (Pure Vanilla)
-
After setting the name of a flag to ">>>KSC<<<" I was not able to enter the science building any more and the game froze.
After killing the whole game I can restart it, load the save file and enter other buildings (VAB/Tracking station). As soon as I try to enter the science building again the game gets unresponsive again (going to main menu is then possible).
It seems that the "<" and the ">" in the flag name evoke "nullpointer exceptions".

I attached the KSP.log and the save-directory. In the log I only did the follwoing steps:
- Start game
- Load save-file
- Enter VAB
- Return to KSC
- Enter Science building
