I get a script crash in l00. Any Idea? the level string is exactly the same as the rounds before: "playground.wmb"

is level an actual string not a char? did you str_create it? does it contain invalid characters (unicode or something)?

Maybe I should've added: 90% of the time, this works perfectly fine.

Do you use a temporary STRING object created via _str()?

Does it matter? The logging function 4 lines above the level load logs correctly...

Have you got some global functions that access entity pointers?
Have you tried to load the level a few times without any players, turrets, and the like?

Yeah, I've tried it.
IF there is global functions that access the pointer, then they certainly cannot run between the logNewMessage and the level_load...?
There's no wait(1) inbetween, and logNewMessage doesn't actually modify the string it gets... unless the file_str_write command modifies a pointer...

When you dont use a level load event and you get the crash in l00, its probably your level that crashes and not your script. Otherwise you would get the crash in 102 or at other places in your script.

I don't talk about the string, I talk about other global functions that access f.i. entity pointers, which become invalid during level_load. Additionally, be aware that pointers only become invalid, but are not set to NULL automatically.


EDIT: The level_load process usually takes several frames, otherwise you could not display a loading bar with on_level as an example. I don't know if global "wait-functions" are executed during these frames, though.

I'm pretty sure level_load happens within a single frame. Otherwise you would not need an on_level event for displaying a loading bar. But entity actions are started during level_load, so there could also be a possible crash.
