(solved) r2184 SDL: crash when city grows

December 26, 2008, 07:21:19 pm

I can't continue all of my savegames because of this bug appearing when certain cities grow.

I have tried to manually make a city grow by public services tools and it crashed.
But the city doesn't need me to grow so 3 months later, building a new high speed p****engers line, this bug again.

There was a monument with rotations but not definition for those rotations, is my best guess. Which pak?

From the visible parts I guess 128...

I'd also say pak128, since gauthier seems to be playing (and developing) only for that.

Yes it's pak128 (pak64 is too small for me

).

I don't know if it's a monument but when certain cities grow up I have this

Seeing the error message, I guess the problem is in the programm, not in the pak but I may be mistaked.

Without further information most likely a bug around pak128.

How big is the city? I clicked "grow" until the starting map was covered, added land, continued, and still nothing...

Note by mod (whoami): please do not double-post. Posts merged:

it happens only in some cities ...
I'm uploading a savegame.

It appears in English too.

Try to grow the city named "Esthar".

important : you'll need a bus I created for myself (from the long bus which looks like PMNV cruiser) donwloadable here :

the savegame :
=> http://files.filefront.com/Reseau+modernesve/;12838333;/fileinfo.html

You'll need : trolley buses, chrysler building, joker roads, SNFOS stations (contained in MLM dev.), SNFOS High buildings.

Result of my test.

If I didn't add "Chrysler Building", it didn't crash.
But if I add "Chrysler Building", simutrans quit without any error dialog. (****ert)

And I heard similar quit problem in our Japanese forum, he said "In r2195, simutrans quits without any error dialog after 2 or 3 minutes from loading game".

I think this is a problem of program.
"Chrysler Building" is 3*3 monument, which dims=3,3,1 and data has no problem.

@prissi

I tested like this, and same problem happened.
So, you don't need to download other paks.

1. Add building.Chrysler Building.pak to normal pak128 folder.
2. Start simutrans.
3. Do one of two listed below
(1) Set timeline off and start new game
(2) Open "curiosity building tool" window and build "Chrysler Building".

Result:
Quit without any error dialog.

Thanks, Frank. But that is not related to crash problem.
Joker's monuments had no problem until 100.0.

location=city ... This is only for makeobj, and igonred by makeobj.
build_time=250 .. This is ignored by makeobj and not stored in pak file.
chance=100 .. Chance is also possible for monument and default value 100 is always stored by makeobj.
