Dont click and drag, just shove the mouse to the top of the screen

It seems the officer bug only happens if you dont run a program once you get to the drawing screen. If you do as you normally would, and release Alt without having run a program it will crash. However, run a program and release Alt and its fine. Can anyone verify this?

Rob

Yeh same. Not much point putting a pic, seeing the one already there shows it all.

Here is a screenshot of some disobediant Darwinians. What I did was create an officer and send everyone over to the radar, so that they just wondered around and around the radar in a circle. I then changed the desination the officer was telling them to go to, and moved him to stand next to the darwi...

I tried to re-create this. First I made an engineer and sent him off to take over the first radar. Then I made an officer and sent him to stand by the radar, then it froze, even tho none of the darwinians were insight.

OK, here is the debug log, if it's any use to Chris or anyone.

OK, well the first one doesn't apply, becuase like I said, they all went through the radar. No-one stayed behind. And the same thing applies for the second one. Please read what I've said before telling me it's like some other bug. Just in case I wasnt clear. Both squads got through the radar, becas...

Here is a pic of the 3rd radar tower. I send both my squads in quick sucession and, as you can see below, one of the squads is fine, but the other squad is trying to make its way back over to the 2nd radar tower and cannot be selected as the program is apparently no longer running, as can be sen in ...

To add to that, it doesn't crash if you re-select the officer and press Alt.

Yeh, except I didn't get the mem location thing. First I upgraded all my reseach, then I got a squad, then an engineer, then sent him to take over the control tower thing, then got an officer, then pressed Alt, then let go of Alt and the game crashed. I'm gonna do some research into whether it alway...

Yeh holding right click is quicker. Also there seems to be no limit on level 4 research, well I only went to about 2000, but there isn'tany point in doing any at all, so the fact it even gets that high is probably a bug.

I think there should be some sort if limit, but limiting it to the taskmanager number is too extreme. I guess there are kinda self-imposed limits, as it would get a bit impractical to have too many officers?

Rob

Is that on exit or on crash? Assuimung you can exit without it crashing?

Yep, I have exactly the same problem and I'm gonna hazard a guess at the reason. Look below and you will see that we both have the same sound card. Running Darwinia through Visual C++ and looking at the debug output tells me: Creating ResourceManager: 24541.7 Creating SoundSystem: 24542.8 Creating C...

You put the same pic 3 times But yeh, the infinately high thing was something I noticed too.
