wrut Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Moving this from general forum as feneur advised. I have just built 0AD with VC2008 Express on my XP SP3, svn was 7296 when i built it, when i have updated to 7297, but didnt built anything. SVN update log contained some binaries, so i'm not sure if i'm still using build ones or from svn. The problem i has, that in my games units can't be killed. They either do no damage or just one unit receives damage till zero health, but keeps fighting. I have tried default Latium map and Oasis. What other information can i provide?XP SP3Athlon X2 4200+ with DualCore optimizer patchNvidia 9800GT latest Forceware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feneur Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Have tried and can duplicate the problem. Turns out I haven't tested to actually kill enemy units in a while, only the economical part of the game, that's why I hadn't noticed it before so I don't know for how long it's been an issue.

feneur Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I'm not sure how high priority it is to fix this though, since it's likely to either not continue be an issue with the new simulation system or even be due to some change which has occurred in the rewriting process. I doubt it's the latter though as Philip has been keeping the new system separate so we don't loose any functionality in the mean time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ykkrosh Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Yeah, I think the changes I've made shouldn't affect the old system (though I could be mistaken) so I'd prefer to blame someone else for the bug . I wouldn't be too surprised if I had accidentally broken it, though. But in any case I'd agree it's probably not worth spending much effort to fix, since all of this should be replaced by the new simulation system soonish, which will get rid of those old bugs (and add a whole set of new ones).SVN update log contained some binaries, so i'm not sure if i'm still using build ones or from svn.If you're running from Visual Studio, and it's on the (default) "Debug" configuration, then you'll be running the ones you built yourself (pyrogenesis_dbg.exe), and the ones in SVN (pyrogenesis.exe) are separate. If you build the "Release" configuration (which has compiler optimisations enabled) then you'll overwrite pyrogenesis.exe, and SVN will complain of conflicts when you update, so you'd probably notice.

Mythos_Ruler Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 (edited) This has actually been an issue for quite some time, so finding the revision that broke it would be nigh impossible.

wrut Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Ok. So i'll wait for the new simulation system When will it possibly can be out? Or maybe you can tell what changes in the svn should indicate, that simulation system has been changed (probably lots of changes)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feneur Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 The simulation system is already in SVN, and it's possible to use the new system rather than the old by using a command line switch. -sim2 Please be aware that it's not as developed as the old one yet, so only basic things work at the moment. Philip is constantly improving it though and is happy for others to help, so it should only be temporary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ykkrosh Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Well, most basic things don't work either . But a few do, and I think it should now be fairly straightforward to get the rest done in the next few weeks, and it should be reasonable to switch to it as the default then. So hopefully it won't be long to wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrut Posted February 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I have tried sim2 yesterday. Yes, it lacks some things (like animations and some functionality, like selection dragging), but at least pathfinding is quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
