| Summary | 0002077: Unnecessary CTD on debug builds | ||||
| Description | This is a random error encountered sometimes on debug builds: Int3(): From d:\scp\builds\trunk\code\mission\missionlog.cpp at line 346 The error itself is not particularly useful and certainly should't cause a CTD, only warning or error to the log. It's a separate issue, but it'd be awesome if someone could actually make some sense out of this error. In its current form its nearly impossible to track down what exactly causes it. | ||||

This is not the only point where a simple INt3() is fired without any further comment. Sadly those are quite common. |
|

I had added a cmdline option to my Xt code to not let Int3()'s error out, just log the error and move on. Then if I were debugging Int3()'s I would just change the cmdline option and let the breakpoint get triggered so that the source of the problem could be found. Maybe something like that is what we need here, having it log but not exit unless a cmdline option is in use (so only devs would get it). Int3()'s are very helpful when running a debugger so it just makes things harder when they are removed or replaced with a simple warning. |

It would seem that use of sexp ship-vanish may in some circumstances trigger this Int3(). |

I think this is caused when a ship belonging to a wing is destroyed while the rest of the wing vanishes (disappears from the mission neither via departing nor by being destroyed). Then when the code in missionlog.cpp checks the data it finds 'missing ships'. I have been unable to reproduce the issue but that might be the cause. Proposed fix, missionlog.cpp, line 333: - if ( Wings[index].total_destroyed == Wings[index].total_arrived_count ){ + if ( (Wings[index].total_destroyed + Wings[index].total_vanished) == Wings[index].total_arrived_count ){ I'm not that familiar with mission scripts that i would be certain that this will fix the issue, so some one else please check the proposed change. |

Fixored, i hope. Please report if this causes issues. |
