2.43 Changes
EricL:
Can you give me more specifics as to exactly the steps you are taking and exactly what happens as a result?
You enterred challengers in the species dialog? How many? WHich one caused the issue? The last one?
Are you using a chengers file?
You started with a league file? How many there?
Thanks
Jez:
I started with one bot placed as n1 in the league, I added a list of other bots, about ten, to the loaded species list. They all ran fine except that the last bot on the challengers(loaded species) list and the bottom bot on the league list were both non competitive bots. They both took it in turns to die out which is why the rounds reached 108. I don't think it was the bots causing an issue really, I imagine that they both died out at exactly the same time and that's what caused the problem.
My league file has over 90 bots in, all the bots from the existing leagues. I have copied the league file into DarwinbotsII\robots which is where I select all the challengers from. I've done it this way because it's quicker than selecting them from the league file each time.

Bump. 2.42.9h released.
2.42.9h Buddy Drop Download
This drop should be considerred a 2.43 release candidate. I have implemented all the features I planned to for this version (and then some). Please pound hard on it and report any bugs you find or last minute feature requests ASAP. I will likely hold off on releasing an official 2.43 until perhaps the end of the week to provide time for testing. I'm sure there are a few issues with leagues in particular yet to address and I would like to get those nailed for 2.43.
It is likely I will slack off for a few weeks once 2.43 is released, enjoy the holidays and work on my book a little (which has sufferred greatly due to my DB obsession) so I would like to see 2.43 be a particularly solid and stable release. Thanks for your help.
Numsgil:
Once 2.43 is released I'll start to move some of my c++ changes into the VB source code. Especially things that are relatively easy like some of the physics code. Then I'll start working on DNA and setting up a new DNA system with codules as part of an initiative to port the program to the .Net framework (which will make interfacing with the internet much easier).
Jez:
Apart from the last competitor in league appearing in loaded species list, (if you enter one bot in league then when league matches are finished two bots show in loaded species list) and if you have fixed the problem of the league freezing (supposedly if the competitors die out in the same cycle) then I think the only other thing I would like you to change is the F1 league defaults applying to all possible options. Something I am hoping Light will provide a list for soon.
You deserve a break! You've been incredibly quick off the mark fixing problems that people have found. Hope you enjoy your well earned hols!!
