Error pop up using Game of Life about ledfx HOT 12 CLOSED

Please join the discord and ask there in general...

Also describe there what your current status is, as I am aware that game of life caused you problems, but assuming things work for you now, without a problem statement.

from ledfx.

Could you share the config.json from the .ledfx directory please?

Likely some corner case of your configuration we will want to get to the bottom of.

OK, don't worry about the config, pretty sure we have no protection for running game of life on very small matrix or 1d strips. Its a legitimate crash. when on a beat we try to add an entity with elements outside of the matrix size.

Will be reasonable enough to fix, thanks for reporting

from ledfx.

If you need help recovering your config.json from the poisened config, just ping.

Next release will have --clear-effects to help with this

are you back to working?

config.json
Found it!! Dang my old ass did it!! Not back to working, deleting then unpacking it again to get it working on my end.
edit2: up and working after deleting the old and reunpacking and initiating the file,

from ledfx.

All your existing virtuals are set to crawler or magnitude effect, so I am assuming you are not stuck with a poisoned config and its all working for you.

Just don't activate game of life on your 1d strips until we get some protection in, and you will be fine

from ledfx.

if self.board_size is < 4 for rows or cols we should just return silently from add_random_entity

from ledfx.

So what should I do?
Edit: How do I get magnitude to work for just one string? ie the window set? I'm sorry if I am a pain in the ass. I'm not savvy like y'all when it comes to this stuff but I have a huge desire and willingness to learn. I'm attaching my current config file.
config.json I'll check back in a few hours. it's 7pm here.

Fixed in v2.0.92
