What's with anims? My merc has 100 APs and I want to move him for 60 APs... he moves but when he stops moving (because he spent APs for that task) he doesn't crouch (like before) but he is some sort of "half-step"?
(never saw this before in any build)

That's a feature. If you decide to continue movement you can do so with less AP spend because you are still in the movement animation.

I have no idea. I don't use that. I just click where I want the slider to be and then adjust a little with left/right arrows.

Also I didn't see duplicated medical backgrounds.

I cannot hire Slay. I gave him the disk, and he refuses to join my team. I tried to do it with Miguel (leadership 99) - no success.


Now it is not possible to use rod& spring and trigger group at the same time?

rev 6428.

Bug: While doing nightime sneaking in realtime and hunting last 2 enemies, Ira finished up training militia at another city. The message from Ira popped up normally but the game froze afterwards.
I'm guessing that is should have went back to strategic and ask me if I wanted continue training militia but it never happened. Had to kill the process in taskbar.

This is true. Both are internal attachments which could never be used together as far as I remember. If they could be that was a bug or a special ability of a mod that defined more/other attachment points.

edit: This bug was introduced with GameDir revision 1257 where attachment classes first showed up in the current GameDir. The trigger group got the wrong attachment class and was therefore assigned to a slot that most weapons don't have although the trigger group was still defined to be compatible with these weapons. This was fixed in GameDir 1783.

Some modders have already fixed this bug in their items.xml long ago.

In the moment of closing sector inventory when there are no visible items, SaveSeenAndUnseenItems function will throw exception ("vector iterator not dereferencable"), seems problem is related with recent changes.


Yes, this is missing:worldItemsSaveList.resize(1);//min one element to have an iterator (around line#961)

The tempfile always contains 10 empty items so there should be no issue adding 1 emty in front and removing the last empty one. Otherwise the loop needs a check for the first item or the tempfile needs to be removed - but file was always present if a sector was visited once. Dont know if it has some sideeffects when removing that file.
if ( worldItemsSaveList.capacity() == 0 ) //nothing to do anyways so get out of here
		return;
	worldItemsSaveList.resize(1);//min one element to have an iterator
	//make list of seen items
	for ( UINT32 i = 0; i < pInventoryPoolList.size(); i++ )

This fix seems to work. Shall I commit?

No it does not. It causes items to vanish. Please don't use.

edit: Bug is now fixed in revision 6440.

I think I have found a small bug. I am running one of the latest from Depressivebrot's page (early September).

A few of my newly hired mercs were ambushed without equipment, and I allowed them to surrender. Upon being rescued later, their health bars had turned green and have remained green ever since.

It's possible but it will require to add the slot to all weapons that are supposed to support the rifle sling. Most weapons don't have an external slot in stock 1.13.

If the savegame is from an unmodified installation you can upload it. I can try to find the reason why Slay is so stubborn.

Uhm, no that's not how NAS works. If you define a layout (probably even the default one) with a slot for the sling and only make the sling go in that slot, all weapons should get that slot.

:headscratch:
Now I'm confused. Looks like NAS lost some of its configuration files since last time I knew how it worked.

- AttachmentSlots.xml contains the slots and assigns them to a certain .
- in Items.xml defines which layout an item belongs to.
- 1 already has a slot for "External Attachments 1"

The only thing that needs to be done is to assign item "Rifle Sling" (ID 1525) to 256 which is "External Attachments 1" and all weapons that use 1 get that slot and the rifle sling can be attached if it is compatible (defined in Attachments.xml). Bingo! Smile

Now I really wonder if someone assigned the trigger group to "External Attachments 1" on purpose and me putting it back to "Internal Attachments" in rev 1783 was a mistake. It was there in old NAS but maybe someone said it should be external...

Can you answer this question too?

regarding Quote:
crashing when loading a savegame [..]
Exception code: 0xc0000409
Fault offset: 0x003c9042


This is an unspecified error in a seldom used code - disassembly shows that this memory section is not used. Maybe its used by a external lib (direct2D, windows stuff, lua or sound driver). However I got one lucky catch in debug version and this section showed some values, could not set a breakpoint there as there was no linkage (debugger says) nor do I have an idea how this section got filled and if it has the same meaning as in release version. And now as I am trying to reproduce to show a screen shot of disassembly its gone. I am stumped.

savegame11 - Slay unhireable.

I can reproduce that bug but I don't know which change caused it.

When we try to recruit Slay the game checks if fact 155 is true. Fact 155 has no enum but I found out that it means "Slay offered deal". This fact is never set to true. That's why you can't recruit him. When I gave him the disk he got out of his wheelchair and said "I appreciate that." and that's it. I have no idea who changed his code or if it is related to some LUA script externalizations or something. I don't even know where to start looking. Sad
Also I can shoot at him and he never fights back. He doesn't even get out of his chair when I shoot at him. Looks like his code was completely broken.

quicksave - 2 bugs:

Where do all the rotting bodies come from in D5? When I enter the sector from the west I don't get attacked but there is dead bodies everywhere. When I started a new game and went to D5 from the North I didn't get attacked and there were no dead bodies so I don't know what you did there...

By the way Slay unhireable bug introduced recently. I remember I could hire him last time I played aprox. 1-2 weeks ago.

Dead bodies are enemy patrol, I killed them with my 2 mercs by attacking/retreating few times. Also I accidentally wounded boxing club guard Spike but after fight he did not fight back and I spent 1 boxing match. next time I went to tactical - kingpin people started killing my mercs, so I retreated in map view and next time I entered sector crazy things started to happen.
Usually I use this sector as source of money in early game and prison, all done by Bull.

What about bug when enemy do not finish their turn?

Thanks for external attachment for rifle sling by the way!

edit. I just had exact same kingpin bug in Arulco folding stock mod. I did nothing except 3 boxing matches. Darren gave me money, Kingpin invited me and left. few seconds later siren goes on and everybody become hostile. just before match there was enemy patrol so I left sector and returned later when they moved somewhere else.

@Uriens

did you try to put MIN_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS to e.g. 2 and observe will they still came 2 turn later or never?

just for precautions I turn off this fetaure in latest ja2_setttings.ini


Ok, finally managed to get into position to test this.
I have set up following parameters:
MIN_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS = 3
RND_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS = 3
MIN_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS = 64
RND_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS = 64
MIN_DELAY_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS = 3
RND_DELAY_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS = 3
MIN_ENTER_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS = 64
RND_ENTER_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS = 64


At the end of enemy turn 4 militia reinforcements showed up.
At the end of the enemy turn 7 enemy reinforcements showed up.
Seems that feature works fine since reinforcements should have showed up in 4-7 turns period. Or is it 3-7 turn period. Does random number include 0? Is 3 meaning 1-3 or 0-3?

Thanks, finally confirmation that this feature works somewhere else then at my PC only Smile

In this case random numbers are generated from 0 to your RND value e.g. (0, RND_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS), so return 0 as random value is possible.

Finally get time to finish fix for APs showing/deducting for grenades and launchables, while doing that hope not too much screw up other things :headbanger:
Well, if something else is still not working with APs deduction will try to fix that too :wave:

r6447 contains:

Brief: //dnl ch72
- Fixing bad APs deduction when using hand grenades, mortars, rocket launchers, grenade launchers and attached grenade launchers from different stances and need turn to your target.
Details:
- Add APs cost for stance change and turnover for mortar and rocket launchers.
- Rocket launchers cannot be fire from prone any more as there are no animation for that stance.
- Attached grenade launchers now take raise gun cost for launcher instead for gun.
- No more problems with APs for grenades from different stances and turnover, add proper costs for crouch too as someone add animation for that.
- Fix wrong APs deduction for grenade launcher from prone and turnover in general.
- Fix incorrect values for APs cost under throwing/launching cursor.

By the way Slay unhireable bug introduced recently. I remember I could hire him last time I played aprox. 1-2 weeks ago.

I traced the conversation now and found out that Slay will only offer the recruitment option if the player has the "Kill Terrorists" quest active. In your savegame this quest is already solved and therefore Slay's NPC record 1 will not trigger which in turn doesn't activate Fact 155 which means that you can't hire him. I have no idea how you managed to solve that quest without killing him however...

hm. If I remember correctly I gave 3-4 heads of terrorists to Carmen except Slay's of course. After that I did not meet him for money. Maybe game thought that it is enough to finish this quest.

Try to fix punch APs deduction but not understand why we use MinAPsToPunch for bare hands and brass knuckles, and for any other punching stuff MinAPsToShootOrStab ?
Why not put all punching under MinAPsToPunch ?
v1.12 source showing that all punch part was calculate in MinAPsToPunch.

This one is v1.12 MinAPsToAttack:

	if ( uiItemClass == IC_BLADE || uiItemClass == IC_GUN || uiItemClass == IC_LAUNCHER || uiItemClass == IC_TENTACLES || uiItemClass == IC_THROWING_KNIFE )
	{
		sAPCost = MinAPsToShootOrStab( pSoldier, sGridno, ubAddTurningCost );
	}
	else if ( uiItemClass & ( IC_GRENADE | IC_THROWN ) )
	{
		sAPCost = MinAPsToThrow( pSoldier, sGridno, ubAddTurningCost );
	}
	else if ( uiItemClass == IC_PUNCH )
	{
		sAPCost = MinAPsToPunch( pSoldier, sGridno, ubAddTurningCost );
	}

and this one v1.13 MinAPsToAttack:

	if ( !(pSoldier->inv[HANDPOS].exists()) || Item[pSoldier->inv[HANDPOS].usItem].brassknuckles ) 
	{
		sAPCost = MinAPsToPunch( pSoldier, sGridno, ubAddTurningCost );
	}
	else if ( uiItemClass & ( IC_PUNCH | IC_BLADE | IC_GUN | IC_LAUNCHER | IC_TENTACLES | IC_THROWING_KNIFE ) )
	{
		sAPCost = MinAPsToShootOrStab( pSoldier, sGridno, bAimTime, ubAddTurningCost, ubForceRaiseGunCost );
	}	
	// thrown items
	else if ( uiItemClass & ( IC_GRENADE | IC_THROWN ) )
	{
		sAPCost = MinAPsToThrow( pSoldier, sGridno, ubAddTurningCost );
	}
	// for exceptions
	else 
		sAPCost = MinAPsToPunch( pSoldier, sGridno, ubAddTurningCost );

why v1.13 had IC_PUNCH for MinAPsToShootOrStab? :whoknows:

Not exactly that but you caused me to check that function again that creates Carmen's terrorist counter and guess what I found...

Well, the function was not changed but it assumes that all terrorists are placed randomly across the map. All randomly placed terrorist add to a counter and this counter is given to Carmen. In the current MercProfiles.xml two terrorist are preplaced, MoM and Tiffany.

So the game goes through this list:
Elgin is always there +1
Slay +1
MoM preplaced, skip
Imposter +1
Tiffany preplaced, skip
T-Rex +1

We end with the counter at 4. When you killed 4 terrorists (edit: and handed in the heads) the quest is done. This is probably what happened to E1vS.

How to solve that? We could simply assume that the data in MercProfiles.xml is valid and end with several terrorist in the same sector or a terrorist in an inaccessible sector.

Need to think about that and implement a solution.

Well, the function was not changed but it assumes that all terrorists are placed randomly across the map. All randomly placed terrorist add to a counter and this counter is given to Carmen. In the current MercProfiles.xml two terrorist are preplaced, MoM and Tiffany.

So the game goes through this list:
Elgin is always there +1
Slay +1
MoM preplaced, skip
Imposter +1
Tiffany preplaced, skip
T-Rex +1

We end with the counter at 4. When you killed 4 terrorists the quest is done. This is probably what happened to E1vS.

How to solve that? We could simply assume that the data in MercProfiles.xml is valid and end with several terrorist in the same sector or a terrorist in an inaccessible sector.

Need to think about that and implement a solution.


I killed 4 terrorists, so for new game one should not kill more than 3 to hire Slay?

Thanks for fixing bug with M.E.R.C. mercs availability!

The terrorist counter is now fixed in revision 6451. The game will increment the counter no matter if the terrorist has a fixed or random placement. Unfortunately this will not fix older savegames because the counter is stored in the savegame.
If you want to hire Slay with an old savegame you shouldn't hand in more than 3 heads before trying to hire him. For new games the counter will be correct so you can hand in as many heads as you like because you cannot end the quest prematurely anymore.

If a fixed placement of a terrorist is invalid go blame the person who did that because you will not be able to solve the terrorist quest anymore. Razz

silversurfer,

thanks for quick response!

Did you see the bug in my savegame when enemy soldiers could not finish their turn?

I saw the bug but I didn't find the problem in the code. I don't do AI stuff because I have no idea how that is build. Sorry.

Thanks anyway!

If you can handle this bug to someone that could look at it that would be great.

We don't "hand over" bugs to anyone. All of the work is voluntary. If someone wants to fix bugs he will look here anyway.

I found a bug in the latest build but I'm not sure if is just my build.
When you kill all hostiles in the map, TRIUMPH_MUSIC doesn't play. Instead it skips over to MUSIC_NOTHING. Autoresolve plays TRIUMPH_MUSIC though.

This could be related to the new music system that was revoked lately. Maybe one instance of the code still uses it. As long as the game doesn't crash because of that I would be too worried. As soon as the new music system is fixed it will be activated again.

Why was it revoked? Did it not work?
