ent_pvs problem - 09/23/10 18:07

i used this code in my test project (taken from manual):

Code:

i = 1;
        me = ent_pvs ( i, 0 );
        while ( me )
        {
            if ( my.string1 )
            {
                draw_text ( my.string1, 350, i*12, COLOR_WHITE );
             }
            else
            {
                draw_text ( "-------", 350, i*12, COLOR_WHITE );
            }
            
            i++;
            me = ent_pvs ( i, 0 );
         }

Sometimes (almost, not all) this code draws one entitie more than in the count of pvs. All the entities in the level are opaques.

A toke a couple of screenshots:

In both cases there is one text line more than in the count of pvs. In the first example it looks that there are two "FNC_Jugador" (string attached to player entitie) and i'm totally sure that there is only one.

I have done tons of tests to confirm it and it looks like a bug.

Salud!

This looks indeed like a bug. But I've just tried your code and it does not happen here.

Can you upload your test project or send it to Support? We'll look into it.

Thanks for the file. It was a bug - ent_next sometimes returned an entity twice. This will be fixed in the next update.
