I was tearing down an old base I was moving out of before the game froze, prompting me with this system message. The base was pretty high up in the sky, On a floating island. I don't remember what exactly prompted this crash because I didn't think this prompt was related to terraria at first.

Bump: It happened again (1.4.0.5 this time), I tried inputting my password; still crashed. I should note that my game was lagging a lot this session, too. I was on a corpse run, and It was the morning after a blood moon, and skeletron prime attacked my world (didn't summon him he spawned), but I think it probably has more to do with the lag than whatever I was doing.

Another thing worth noting is that the world's progress reset to whenever the game last saved, which was most noticable after the first crash, when I had to tear down my base again, and since my character reset at a different time, I still had the items from the base I just tore down, duping the components for the base.

And checking my programs to see which was using the most memory, I saw a program at the top that I'd never seen before: 'talagent' (Developer tools access?) It was using up almost 4GB of memory. No idea if this thing is related to terraria or the crash in any way. And looking at activity monitor again making this post, it's still running.

I hope the information here helps a bit, I just wrote down as much as I could remember

That's weird.

I'm not sure how much of this is Terraria-induced, but the error message is definitely not directly caused by Terraria:

Alert"Developer tools access needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue.Type your password to allow this."

I am using OS X Mavericks with Xcode 4.6.3. I am running the app on simulator as i don't have a developer account. Whenever i run the project on simulator it keeps asking me "Developer tools access...

The error message is something related to your Mac installation itself.

Google also indicates that "talagent" is something like a Mac version of Window's Task Manager:

How to fix weird 'talagent' keychain issue

Are you getting something like following message on your Mac every time you log in? talagent wants to use the "local items" keychain. please log in with

So while it is possible Terraria is causing a crash or an error of some sort, the Developer Tool Access and Talagent elements are unrelated.
