The above Dropbox link is not valid anymore. Please restore it.

got the 3-way script working well now so that it randomizes opposing teams well; fixed fonts in 3-way screen, too.

[Red Devil]

updated link and info on previous page.

also adding that info to first post in this thread.

[Red Devil]

couple things i forgot to mention:

the reticle on the initial player scouts is loose and hitting escape twice fixes that.

i forgot to change the initial recycler from a building to a vehicle, but it still works.

[Red Devil]

weirdness strikes...

3-way games suddenly fail on their own after ~12 minutes

[General BlackDragon]

Want any help?

[Red Devil]

o thanks; it's more fun when it's weird.

With the latest patch, Into the Fire just silently terminates the BZ2Edit.exe after Hadean builder repairs the bridge. Log and saved game: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/751 ... oblems.zip.

[Red Devil]

yup, terminates for me, too.

interesting that the console msgs say that unit:1 not found after loading saved game.

crash always happens right after these messages:

fixed the ebfact error by removing the upgrade in ebfact2.

[Progressor]

I forgot to write that I got the message like "You have placed the nuclear satchel far away from the destination point..., next time..." while I was far away from the wall, did not place the satchel yet and I was inside the vessel. Maybe this detail will be useful.

[Red Devil]

yes, that is useful; thanks for the good feedback.

[General BlackDragon]

You do know ebfact2 is supposed to upgrade to ebfact, right?

[Red Devil]

i should have posted this before going to home depot:

- More work on mantis #1718. Added code to check for muzzleflash at
the origin, to the editor build, ONLY. It'll spam to battlezone.log
messages like this, when the weapon is fired, max of once every 5
seconds:

DIAG| cannon:215 |22:47:45|8359 |Cannon muzzleflash at origin, for wpnClass 'gmbolt' owned by 'fbspir' in world 1. Squelched.

This should help identify which weapons are going bad. Still
doesn't explain why #1718 only happens with MW on. In the debugger, I
did see that in loading that map, ivscout with faf mmissile had the
same muzzleflash at the origin, even w/ MW off. As I noted, all
weapons (in their base class) look for 'hp_fire' and then 'fire' when
associating themselves for a muzzleflash, and possibly other things.

[Red Devil]

i think i figured out a way around the bad fails.

[Red Devil]

yup, it boiled down to a problem testing for 0; probably related to precision/rounding. ugh.
