Bugs in 9189 trunk

First, the savegame bug from 9088 is gone.

Second, the bugs with negative credits and the missing "build new base" sign are still there.

Third, there is a new bug. When I use the
Code: [Select]
map "whatever the map I want is" function in the console the desired map is loaded, but when the tactical battlescape appears its just a blank map. Oddly the game is paused (?). I can swich between my soldiers, and the weapons change, but the ammo dont (I found that one of my soldiers with a Rocket Launcher had 30 ammo because first soldier had Assault Rifle).

I assume you tried this with multiple maps?

Can you confirm that it still occurs after running the following from your ufo.exe directory?
Code: [Select]
ufo2map.exe -bounce 0 -extra ".\base\maps\<mapname>.map"  Sounds like a bad compile.

Here's some pics

OK you can get the random maps. Didn't realize it was "+frozend". Great, now i just need a release where the "map" function in the console works (ADDED: This bug applies to all maps it try to load with the console). See screenshots for the problem (the console seems not to notice, and I can leave the game and load it again(no crash)):



The "blank screen problem" also appears when moving while game is paused. Screenshots:



Then the firebird bug, present in 9081, 9088, 9189... as far as I know. This time not only the game crashed, it went slow-motion and the computer lagged 5 minuttes before i managed to close the game. Screenshots below:



Sorry about all the pics

[EDIT: Entire thing.  I meant to hit preview and hit submit while things at work got crazy]

Is it possible it's hitting the memory flush, like my map was doing prior, Mattn?   Snow should be the assembly small from frozend.ump, which is coded below:

Code: [Select]

assembly small
{
size "4 5"
title "_Snow"
+n01 "0 4"
+n02 "0 4"
+n03 "0 4"
+n04 "0 4"
+h01 "0 1"
+h02 "0 1"
+h03 "0 2"
+h04 "0 2"
+h05 "0 1"
+drop "1 1"
}


None of these maps seemed to have a significant failure point, and a 4x5 shouldn't cause an issue unless there's some serious light effects or a problem at the seams.

It is strange, when I was using 9081 there was no bug with loading maps via the console, it first appeared in 9189.
It is not graphical problems, as i can get all the maps when they appear as missions.
Might it be something with pausing the game that causes the error? You see, when I type in the console for example: "map mine01d" (Its not only "Snow") I get the loading screen. When the loading is finished the map starts, jet it is blank (see screenshot) and it turns pause on automatically. Thats why I tried going to a mission, which appears properly, pause the game and when i click/doubleclick to move, the same thing happens. Even though the map is already loaded.

Re-downloading, re-installing and adding the newest files does not help.
