Bug in 2.37.4
« on: September 04, 2005, 11:45:13 AM »
When I try to create a 'custom' colour for a bot, everything is fine. But when I try to remove the 'custom colour' pop-up (the one with the RGB sliders), the program freezes and I have to terminate it via CTRL-ALT-DELETE

Not major, but annoying.

I'll probably look into these sorts of menu bugs/features when I get internet up in my new place.  Otherwise, I'll never remember by the time I get home.

After extensive testing I cannot reproduce this reported bug.

The color selection works absolutely perfectly, no matter what I do to it.

I've seen this happen myself.  I think it happens if you hit the x to close it instead of committing the changes.

or soemthing...

anyway it definately exists.

In fact it has NEVER failed on either of my computers.

If anyone knows how to provoke this then please post exact steps to cause it. Maybe I'm just not doing it right (wrong that is)

I had it happen when I was playing with Light's install on the webspace (you have to access it via FTP, it's not listed).

He had a really sweet color selected for Animal Minimalis 2.4.  I loaded up the custom color, may or amy not have played with the sliders, then hit the x to close it, and my whole program died (either froze or crashed, I forget which).

Anyway, you might try dling his install and seeing if you can reproduce it that way.

Yep just tried. Changing the sliders then clicking [x] cuases it to hang, no error produced, just non-responsiveness. A bug I'd say.
:D Ulciscor :D

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

Light's install? or the regular code that I gave the link to at the start of this project?

I can't fix this unless I can make it happen.

Regular code I just downloaded:

Start a new sim
Add a bot
Goto custom colour
Clise the top slider along a bit
Click [x]
Voila!

Light uploaded his entire DB directory to the webspace when he got a bug I couldn't figure out.  I think it's still there.  It's under the directroy "Light".

Whether or not anyone else can replicate this error is irrelevant; more than one person has noticed a problem and that makes it a bug.  :D

Bugs are awesome! You can just see Db getting better every time we find one.

Now we just have to isolate the cause. I still can't make it happen
