Hi pals, any idea about this crash?
Code: Select all
[18:38:57][8472]game/game_research.lua:861(global HasUnitTech) game/game_research.lua:861: attempt to index field 'luaData' (a nil value)
[18:38:57][8472]Resume: false, std::exception: 'Lua Error:game/game_research.lua:861(global HasUnitTech) game/game_research.lua:861: attempt to index field 'luaData' (a nil value)'
[18:38:57][8472][C]:-1(global error) ai/ai.lua:0: std::exception: 'Lua Error:game/game_research.lua:861(global HasUnitTech) game/game_research.lua:861: attempt to index field 'luaData' (a nil value)'
This is the script:
Code: Select all
function HasUnitTech(unit, techName)
-- Check if unit has it
i = 1
while unit.luaData.unitTechs[i] ~= nil do -- line 861
-- Check if unit already has tech
if unit.luaData.unitTechs[i] == techName then
return true
end
i = i + 1
end
return false
end

Difficult to say.
I assume this crash is from your personal modification of Potzblitz?
Please give me more info about the situation in the game:
1. when did that crash happen?
2. what turn is it
3. what is happening in the match
I'll need at least the whole logfile.

EDITED:
All the answers are YES, the crash happened in turn 42, while IA (Entente) attacking near Udine. An Italian Cavalry Corps attacking an Austrian Army Corps at hex 100, 34. I have tried to fix the crash, but I have no idea

Where did that Italian cavalry come from?
Italy does not start with cavalry and AI never builds cavalry. Also there is no Spawnunit for italian cavalry in my mod.
That leaves YOU
as the source of the crash!
Where did you mod the script to have a cavalry spawn for Italy?
Show me that part in your script.

I've had another idea: replace
function HasUnitTech
with this:
Code: Select all
function HasUnitTech(unit, techName)
if unit.alive then
-- Check if unit has it
i = 1
while unit.luaData.unitTechs[i] ~= nil do
-- Check if unit already has tech
if unit.luaData.unitTechs[i] == techName then
return true
end
i = i + 1
end
end
return false
end

It works!
How have you learned to mod lua files so fine? In my variant of Potzblitz MOD Italy neither begins with Cavalry Corps, but IA build them sometimes. I think IA takes in account many variables of units.lua file to decide which units to build.

I've never ever seen the AI build a cavalry corps but great the solution worked for you.
That's all that matters.
