Bug Description

KiCAD 5.1.4
the AC analysis (after breaking the circuit, adding the stimulus, etc) will partially work, will spit wrong amplitude/phase values, and it will crash without completing a sweep. The same circuit works in transient without problems. The AC version works in any other simulation program without problem.

You need to provide more information in the bug report. What exactly is the problem? What are the steps to reproduce the issue? Can you upload example files to help recreate the issue? Maybe provide a screenshot/screen recording demonstrating the problem.

@Michael
Upon further review, I am not anymore sure this is an AC analysis bug. I think the right course of action here would be to clarify the bug reports I sent regarding KiCAD schematic input/processing. I suspect it is a general KiCAd schematic processing bug. I will get back to this thread after I figure out how to avoid errors in the KiCAD schematic.
