| Summary | 0001656: Replace data -> <argument> can be used with a numeric variable resulting in crash | ||||
| Description | When using when-argument or every-time-argument modify variable will allow you to pick <argument> to assign to a numeric variable. This results in an immediate crash. I was trying the idea from this thread: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,53155.0.html Event was: every-time-argument -->rand-multiple-of ---->1 ---->2 ...... ---->7 -->= ---->wing(0) ---->0 -->modify-variable ---->wing(0) ----> <argument> As soon as argument was selected FRED crashed. | ||||
| Additional Information | Originally found in TBP 3.6.9 inferno version of FRED but confirmed in 3.6.10 trunk build dated 04/03. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

As I thought this one is caused by the fact that <argument>s are strings but you're sticking them into a numeric variable. Obviously this doesn't make the slightest bit of sense and the game asserts or crashes as a result. The FREDding solution is to use the string-to-int SEXP to convert from one to the other. It's currently hiding in the training SEXP section for some reason I still don't understand but I'll move it soon enough. The coding solution is to stop FRED allowing you to stick a string <argument> into a numeric variable. |

Changed my mind. You can still use the argument with the variable and now it shouldn't crash. |
