Hi Excessus!

Yes I'm getting crashes. Most of the crashes are in my level 3.

The line in the preceding message is not working
It is never true.
I can't use //! or breakpoint; to find out why
because the breakpoint is not recognized...
When I put debug_mode in main (is it where it's supposed to be?)
I got a blank screen and ESC did not work, so I had to reset my computer.

A sections of the script code that (as far as I know) is the same in
Cscript and Lite C made a function crash.

At this time I'm thinking it's my fault so I keep on reading
and trying different things.

Entity skills are of var type. You can look it up in the header fiels of the sdk:

Code:

---

typedef struct ENTITY {
...					// or view pointer for a layer entity
	var		skill[100];	// entity skills (skills > 40 only available for A6.2 or above)
...
} ENTITY;

Your crash problem might have to do with some later part in your script.

One lesson I learned: While C-Script ignored calls of empty function pointers, Lite-C crashes . You have to do a NULL comaprison before calling the function pointer.
It gave me a headache until I found out what is causing the crashes...

Hi !
Just to let you know that the line that was giving me a problem :
if (var_green == MyEntity.skill16) {}

is now

if (MyEntity.skill[15] == var_green) {}


I’ve also changed all the other .skill16 to .skill[15]
I know that skill16 is the same as skill[15] but for some reason they are processed differently.

Could you give me a short example of what yours saying here.

Thanks Firoball

I'll be experimenting with this code and get back to you.
