Refresh crashes the Game Server

Just did a pull today. Now any time Refresh is cast the server crashes. Not sure where error logs would be, but since the server crashes nothing is shown in the server window. Anyone else experiencing this? I haven't made any new personal edits, so I don't think anything I did caused this.

Ok, I ran the game server from inside visual studio and crashed it by casting refresh. I got the error that the program reached a break point. I clicked to Break. Now I am not sure what to post here to really figure out what is wrong. What should I do to dump the data for posting?

Ok, this is what I am getting:
> DSGame-server.exe!CLuaBaseEntity::getMod(lua_State * L) Line 5053 C++
Line 5053 is the following:
DSP_DEBUG_BREAK_IF(lua_isnil(L, 1) || !lua_isnumber(L, 1));
If I am reading that right, there is a nil value being returned. Not sure why.

Either: your status.lua is missing a MOD_WHATEVER, the status.lua file is broken in some other way (bad edit conflict resolutions) or your refresh script is calling a wrong modifier. Likely related to custom something or someone manually changing files in some way.

Thanks for the help, I was able to fix the issue. I was missing mod values in status.lua and modifier.h. I am betting I will hit more of this issue moving forward as I hit items that don't have mod values, but I should be able to deal with it now.

Those files shouldn't be missing things from darkstar's version like that. Are you pulling updates via git?
