some bugs

capitol · Post by **capitol** » December 24th, 2003, 6:02 pm

Some things (I'm playing 6.1 from freebsd ports)

When I have accessed the preference menu and pressed accelerated speed there is some garbagebuttons floating on the screen (2 sliderulers (is that the word?) Hotkeys, Video Mode and Close Window). They disapear if I press Close Window. It seems as if I only can recreate the bug on the first turn in Heir to the throne. (I don't know any programs to take screenshots, and a quick search on google didn't help me).

When I recall units it doesn't say how much they cost. This might not be a bug?

When I saved on turn 1 (anduin's Isle) and loaded the game, I had to sit through the intro for that level again (I saved after the intro).

Once i almoast killed an enemy and it leveled, I think that units should get experience at the end of the enemys turn, not during it. this might be a bug or not... but it seems quite random when you get experience from being kicked around.

When using the n-key: If you move a unit after having pressed n, the internal pointer to which unit to go to when you press n the next time is reset. If I explain badly please let me know and i will try to be more explicit.

And thank you for the great game =) it's quite addictive.

Ahh and 1 more thing.

When I load a game that is saved on an late turn, it takes quite some time to load it, maybe pop up a small window saying loading or something.

Hmm..I can't reproduce this problem. Where abouts are the buttons floating?

Most desktop environments provide facilities to capture screenshots...

They always cost 20 gold.

There is code to make loading saved games much faster in CVS.

Ok I got a snapshot:

what I do to reproduce the bug is as follows:
Start a new campain, easy/hard/etc doesn't matter, right click, choose preferences, click Accelerated speed 2 times (so that it's activated), click close window.

What happens now might be a clue to what goes wrong. The window dissapear, but the unit I had selected is moved to the spot beneth the close window button, and when I move the mouse over the possitions where the buttons and the slider was they are redrawn.

It's maybe a bug in SDL for freebsd...

Weird, I can't reproduce this problem on 5.2-CURRENT here. What's kind of video card do you have? I am not sure what you should give the more info, so how about what's version of SDL do you have installed.

BTW: I have Nvidia video card, so I am using Nvidia driver instead X's one (nv).

ok I post some info...

this is from my XF86config
Section "Device"
Identifier "nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection

#scanpci
[... my other hardware ...]
pci bus 0x0001 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x10de device 0x0020
nVidia Corporation NV4 [RIVA TNT]

# sdl11-config --version
1.2.5

hmm strange that I'm the only one that is able to produce this...

I tried on another computer in our lab (an debian testing with 0.6.1 build from source) and got the same errors...

my .wesnoth directory contains the following:

capitol@paranor:~/.wesnoth$ ls
preferences saves
capitol@paranor:~/.wesnoth$ cat preferences
fullscreen="true"
grid="false"
music_volume="1"
sound_volume="1"
turbo="true"
xresolution="1272"
yresolution="940"

(If you want I can post the saves here as well but they shouldn't make a diffrence)

Hi!

I cant find the save button in the game. Where it is? (In the current version of the game(CVS))

In version 0.6.1 is it in the menu:

In the current version there are no SAVE GAME button ...

How can I use gdb with wesnoth?

Code: Select all

gdb ./wesnoth
run -v /home/lama/wesnoth

It doesnt work:

(gdb) run /home/lama/wesnoth
The program being debugged has been started already.
Start it from the beginning? (y or n) y

Starting program: /home/lama/wesnoth/src/wesnoth /home/lama/wesnoth
Initialized true type fonts

Program received signal SIG32, Real-time event 32.
0x400a5fc4 in pthread_getconcurrency () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
(gdb)

(The program quit at random when I fight with 'Elvish Druid')

Cheers,

We are currently in a re-organization of how menus work, and some buttons are not present at the moment as part of the re-organization process.

Learn to use hotkeys instead

Ctrl-S for save.

If you get a core dump, you can run

Code: Select all

gdb ./wesnoth ./core
bt

Did you run 'make clean' before 'make' after your last update from CVS?

Can you send a save file just before the problem is produced, with instructions on how to reproduce it?

Hi!

I cannot reproduce this problem either, I have tried a few times. I am using win, newest snapshot.

I can assure you that the problem will be looked uppon. I hope that this problem will not interfere for now with BfW playability.
If you have anymore problems/questions/ideas, feel free to post them.

After receiving another bug report, I am guessing that the problem is with some foreign translations that cause the dialog box to be very big.

I have committed a fix to this to CVS, which will hopefully alleviate the problem.

Hi!

After playing some hours of bfW, I have a save with that bug.

Here is a little howto of the problem(animated gif):

And here is the URL of the save of the game:

That bug appears only with the hungarian language ...
But the older version of bfW works fine.

I have looked at the hungarian.cfg but I cant find the bug.
Can somebody looked at the translation file?

weapon_name_ensnare="tőrbe csal(ensnare)"

This version(0.6.2-CVS) not support the parentheses in the weapon name. With 0.6.1 work fine.

Parentheses(), square brackets[], question mark?, etc doesn't work as well
