SOTW 0.8.24.18 - Second Act Beta!

[Troyen]

"Oops, my bad. I'll need to rewrite the entire engine in Lisp to fix this. Your saves might not work."

[yayswords]

Xsabor has become a fine item

Anathema has a mild case of not showing up on the action table...

I've got something to say about the experience bar anyway. Could it just show visual experience progress between the current level and the next instead of total experience? At higher levels, it always looks like you're close to a level up. Of course I can read the numbers just fine but I don't see a benefit to the current design

Crash vs. Gamesh Crossbowman:

Spoiler:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

No AI log (can't the game remember that I want logging on? I have to re-enable it every new build)

Also... Scent of Stars...

Gamesh Crossbowman, no SoS: 38 magic, 150 speed
Gamesh Crossbowman, last turn of SoS: 198 magic, 764 speed

Does a little bit more than it says on the tin...

I don't enable logging by default to avoid cluttering the HD, but probably should during beta anyway found the problem in that crash (was actually a wrong action for the gamesh swordman).
The scent of stars mega-buff is funny will look into it.
As for the experience bar you're right, I didn't notice it until now, but better do it as you said.

[jack1974]

Could you send me a save to test the gamesh scent of star? mine don't load

Made the XP bar change, now makes more sense indeed!

[yayswords]

(was actually a wrong action for the gamesh swordman)

But there was only a crossbowman alive

Could you send me a save to test the gamesh scent of star?

Not immediately, but I'll give you one once I'm out on da streets again.

[jack1974]

The problem is that the crash calls the ChangePosition function, which is triggered only by some skills (the crossbowman has none like that) or when you move your character around. So can't be an enemy skill unless was the swordman, and your switch position in party should work (otherwise would have crashed already before.

[yayswords]

I'm not gonna take a blood oath on it but I'm 90% sure there was only a crossbowman alive at best there might have been a swordsman who died from dots but would he be allowed to consider an action before dying?

[jack1974]

I'm not sure but could be possible since the swordman is still using the old AI

[yayswords]

The SoS bug isn't happening again. Also the same crossbowman who had that superperfume was the one that crashed my game. I think that was renke in pixel form.

[jack1974]

Lol that must be the explanation!
