Bug in vector to raster tool

When I run the vector Polygon to Raster tool as shown below it crashes with the error:
PolygonsToRaster National_Nature_Reserves_England nnr_name C:\Scratch\test.tif true 10 #
Start Time: Tue Feb 25 23:37:33 2020

On looking at the code at line 2671 the line:
desc = arcpy.Describe(base)
Implies that the parameter base is not actually an optional parameter, code needs modifying to resolve this, I am unsure how you are passing in "nothing" into the WBT when base is nothing?
wbt.vector_polygons_to_raster(i=i, field=field, output=output, nodata=nodata, cell_size=cell_size, base=base)
I can also replicate this error in the vector line and vector point to raster tools. Same issue when base raster is nothing.
@Hornbydd Thanks for reporting! I just committed code to fix this bug. Please re-download the toolbox and try again.
Can confirm that bug is fixed, allows tool to execute.
