Stat Bug

[mikker]

When you are editing your status, you can sometimes go beyond the border. With that, i mean that sometimes you can drive the cursor outside the allowed limits (below 50 acc., above 80 acc.). This makes the game crash.

 

Hadn't seen this before. Quite annoying when you forgot to back stuff up

[Serge]

Could you please provide more details about how to reproduce this bug. Do you change soldier attributes using keyboard or mouse? What version of UFO2000 was used?

[mikker]

The 0.6.627 version.

 

I simply point the mouse at the cursor that you can move, and move it extremely to either one of the sides. So much, that you exceed what you can possibly have (like 20 strength). Doesn't always do it, but after some time (customizing all the units) it crashes.

[Serge]

Thanks. One more question, the game should have created the file ufo2000-crash.html in UFO2000 directory, can I have a look at it?

i did it a few times, just to make sure.

[Serge]

Thanks for the information, looks like it is this bug. Now we at least know a bit more details about it and can try to find a reliable way to reproduce it.

[mikker]

no problem

[Gallen]

I'm running 6.627 and having this same problem... only most of the time I don't have to do anything more than just click on the sliders to crash it- sometimes I'll be moving them well within the range the stats are allowed and it'll freeze. It happens nearly 50% of the time for me- very, very problematic.

Just started poking around with the beta and haven't recreated this problem yet.
