hint for stairway problem ?
« on: January 17, 2009, 11:00:12 pm »
Hi,

i tried today to understand deeper the stairway problem (it stopped my progress in playing the campaign :-) ).

After several tries to debug under win xp with code block, i finally suceeded in (re)starting a debug session.

I set a breakpoint in the callback function CL_ActorDoMove() and tested on the village map.

With PATHFINDING_MIN_STEPUP on 5 debug_map 1 shows the stairs as not accessible.
Increaseing PATHFINDING_MIN_STEPUP 6 further resulted that it was shown with a green box.
But on clicking on the first steps of the stair the actor did not move.

Debuging with a breakpoint in CL_ActorDoMove showed, that no event from CL_ExecuteEvent (cl_parse.c)
was forwared. If I made no mistake there was NO EVENT from the left mouse ...

Going back with the actor brought the expected events and the callback function ...DoMove was run through.

I tried this two times but i am not that sure how reliable the debug info might be.
Processes are very unstable in debugging!

Perhaps somebody else can verify?

Regards, Stefan

The fix for stairs problems are on the way AFAIK. Bit more patience. ;)
