I thought he meant it turned them into the current creep, aka Goblin Spearman, Mudcrawler, Vampire Bat, etc.

DoTM broken in 1.1.5

Post by alchemist »

DoTM is broken in 1.1.5... creeps only appear visible to 1st player, all other players do not see them (creeps are invisible).

Any ideas???

I suspect every player has to have downloaded DotM for it to work.

You misunderstand, I think. Even when all players have the DoTM map and era properly installed it does not work. Creeps remain invisible to all but 1st player.

I and others really miss this map... is there any way I can help in the debugging of this problem? Maybe provide some errors or failure cases or logs?

Would the problem be fixed if someone had an older copy of DOTM?

Thanks guys :)
You've already helped me by finding this bug. But to help me fix the bug, you must know WML and its engine well. If you do, I'd appreciate your help very much!

I don't think older version would work either.

So Wesnoth 1.1.7 is out... we shall see if the problem will still occur in the new version. If it does, I'm gonna seek help from sapientx or Tomsik.

DOTM is still having issues in 1.17.

Same bugs as before with creeps not appearing to non host players and OoS errors related to this.

This one is next on my list after fixing sounds playing in quick replays. I am not completely sure about it but i doubt if you can fix this bug with WML. It looks like there have been some changes to the processing of events inside the code. I will let you know if i find anything.

OK, i found it, it is a code problem: Side turns are not fired if it the side is set to AI. I wonder why that hasn't been discovered earlier since it should break some campaigns as well.

Anyway, i fixed it, it works and i will commit it soon to SVN (maybe tonight).

For all those unhappy windows users who don't know how to compile themselves: If there is going to be a substantial amount of time until the next release, i might be heavily tempted to upload a windows binary (only wesnoth.exe, not the whole rest) to sourceforge that puts you back in business again.

I will think of the definition of "substantial" later, after i checked on the release schedule 8) .
