Error Database

Aurora has a robust error system used by Steve to help debug when things aren't working correctly. At times, things can go wrong either due to a bug in the game or through the machinations of players (e.g. DB editing, etc.). While it's not known how many error conditions live in Aurora, over the years some of them crop up and Steve is happy to explain them. We try to keep track of them here.

Where possible an error should have its #, and associated version if you know it, Steve's explanation for what the problem is, and the known solution, if any. Please note, that occasionally the solution to the error is to edit the game database, which can really truly break things -- so back up your database before pursuing some of these fixes.

Error #111

Reported Oct 10, 2026

"Error 111 is a function that checks mission capable status for NPR ships. Its very unusual to see an error there." -- Steve

Resolution: The player had created a multi-NPR Sol start and given each of the NPRs on Earth a diplomatic station. When they deleted/destroyed the stations the error stopped happening.
