[Crash] Techtree Requirements - Any Altar crashes game

[GrapesOfWath]

So I'm trying to add an Altar to the techtree requirements for a building in my map, and for whatever reason, selecting either Any Altar from the Equivalents menu or an actual specific altar from the Units Menu and adding that to the requirements list makes the game crash as soon as I click on the building that requires an altar in order to upgrade. I removed the altar from the requirements list and had no crashes at all. Is there any explanation to this or any workaround that won't require more triggers and dummy research upgrades and all that?

Which version of warcraft 3 are you using?
Maybe in addition of finding a workaround you should file an error report?

Have you tried copy/pasting the "Any Altar" field from an unit in the base game?

I believe no base game unit have the any altar requirement which is probably why it could be broken without blizzard seeing it.
For example tier 3 town halls all asks for a particular altar and not for "any altar".

I've tried it with asking for a particular altar as well as "any altar" though, and both caused crashes :<

As far as I'm aware, I don't have any other units in the game that have an altar in their techtree requirements

was on 1.30.3, now on 1.30.4 but I haven't tried putting it back in after the patch because I doubt that it changed anything with that
Also, is there a manual way to file an error report somewhere? It didn't give me the usual error report box after the crash.

Did you try copy pasting the requirement of the base melee tier 3 human town hall?
If it does crash I guess we will need at least a partial version of your map to test(but I use something like 1.27 so I would not be able to open but other people would be able to open)

Yeah, copy+pasting it still breaks the map :<

Hrm, I remember my brother having a weird altar related bug that caused clicking an altar to crash to game ages ago. Could you post a copy of your map / code excerpt?
