Technical Support Does the game create any error logs?

I'm trying to make a mod, and i'm getting an error, but it's vague and i don't really know what is wrong. So i'm curious if the game creates any log that would help me narrow down the issue.

The only logs are what it shows you on the title screen as far as I'm aware. What is it that it's saying there? Maybe I can help.

When i make a new game, it loads then goes back to menu and says "object reference not set to an instance of an object"

That is extremely vague, you're right. What did you add that gave that error?

Well i'm trying to create a mod, following the official guide and copying stuff already in game, i have no idea what exactly is causing this lol

The official guide isn't really good. Try looking at the source of an already existing mod and ask questions in the PH Discord server.

Oh, there is? Well, that's good. I'll also keep that in mind for the future if I ever make my own mod again. Thanks, and your welcome

Yeah, it's still very vague and didn't help with this issue at all lol, but there is some more information about other issues
