Continuity mistake: When Galen and Krennic are talking at the farm, in some shots the wind is very strong, judging by Krennic's cape and Galen's hair. In others there's virtually no wind at all. This changes immediately between shots, there's no time for the wind to swell or fade. (00:03:30)

Other mistake: When Rogue One's team runs onto the beach after the AT-ACT follows them at the beginning of the scene it shows Stormtroopers walking next to them on the beach, but that's impossible due to the fact that all the AT-ACTs (excluding one who is moving in the water at the background) are still moving through the trees. (01:40:25)

Factual error: When they are trying to navigate the shuttle through Eadu, the shuttle abruptly collides with a rock, which causes Bodhi to jolt backwards. If the shuttle hitting the rock had caused the shuttle reduce speed so abruptly, in the way that was shown, then Bodhi would have jolted forwards, not backwards. (00:57:05)

Question: 3 questions: Was the planet Krennic goes to to talk to Vader supposed to be Mustafar? If so, why would Vader want to go there of all places? Lastly, what was the reason Krennic went to visit Vader?

Answer: Yes, Pablo Hidalgo from the Lucasfilm Story Group confirmed Vader's palace was on Mustafar. Gary Whitta who wrote the story, suggested that he lived there because "he wants to punish himself" for turning to the dark side. Krennic visits Vader because he wants him to arrange a personal audience with the Emperor and cut Tarkin out of the equation.
