I save, I load it and it breaks?

[That Bread]

I've come upon a terrifying error, one that will kill me and my project(well more like a huge delay) if I cannot fix it. Why? Well I already put alot of work into setting it up in the first place, it only occurred to me recently that this happens

So this is the error. Now someone explained to me that it is not saving my custom formation that I input into the script. Is there a way to fix this?

You have a space inserted where no space should be.  [:x] is not a valid argument by itself, it needs to be connected physically to the rest of the statement.  Delete the space before [:x].

 

[Shaz]

I don't really understand what "regardless of any changes" means.


If the above does not solve it, did you start a new game after adding that script, or did you load a previously-started game and save that?

 

[That Bread]

@Shaz Regardless of any change means... even if I did not change anything in the game it breaks anyway. This applies to database changes, script changes, map edits and other changes I make to the game. I hope this statement finally makes sense.

This script has been in during the duration of my testing. I saved the game, right afterwards I loaded it and then it broke during an enemy encounter. Everytime it breaks it shows that error.

@Kyutaru Unfortunately deleting the space inbetween did not help.

This script has been in during the duration of my testing. I saved the game, right afterwards I loaded it and then it broke during an enemy encounter. Everytime it breaks it shows that error.

Just to clarify, because you didn't state it explicitly:
You started a new game, then saved the new game, then loaded the new game and the error happened?


The "new game" part is the important part - if you didn't do that before saving, then similiar bugs are the usual result.

@Kyutaru Unfortunately deleting the space inbetween did not help.

I hope you did not add the space again just because that tip didn't solve the current error? Because that space is a bug - even if it isn't the cause of the current bug, it can cause problems later and it needs to stay removed.

 

[That Bread]

Yes that is exactly what happened. I literally started a new game and saved it then loaded it. All in the purposes of testing if this would occur, because this error has been in the game for a long time now.

I kept the change.

 

[Zeriab]

Looks like an issue where $game_custom_formation is not saved to the save file. Maybe the code for saving has been overwritten, or is missing?

I would suggest researching that direction first.

 

[Kyutaru]

Wow really?  The space wasn't it?  Being the obvious bug would have been too easy I guess.  Well then, let's analyze the code in technical terms.

I don't think that $game_custom_formation is the issue because the code successfully made it through the case statement.  If the space has been removed, the [:x] part is no longer an issue assuming the matrix is setup correctly.  This means the problem is stemming from $game_custom_positions.  Since it's treating this as a nil class, it's possible you never initialized $game_custom_positions as some type of class variable that position depends on.  It's also possible that you are using brackets when you should be using parantheses.  Brackets are for array values and something like var[2][3] would be an array within an array.

Now given these circumstances I checked your screenshot and did not notice the prerequisite script that Victor lists.  It's possible the initializations are done there.  Have you downloaded the Victor Engine Basic Module script that is linked as a requirement to this one?

 

[That Bread]

I have victors basic module... for the custom set up. I can show exactly what I did below. As a side note I have several other cores.. this is due to the scripters requiring their basic modules for certain scripts.

Looks like I do not use brackets in it and this is the only thing I changed in the script.

Oh dear the script is unavialible through the link I gave you! I suppose it would be appropriate to put the one I have in this case.(If not an appropriate action under these circumstances, I will gladly remove it.)

[Kyutaru]

I have bad news.  Also good news.  But first the bad news.

The script appears to be fine at first glance.  I imported it and the basic module in a brand new project and I was able to run my game just fine.  I was able to save my game, load my game, quit my game, come back to the game, and I tested this with random battles.  Everything was working fine at first glance.

Most of the time this means you have a compatibility issue.  Without dissecting your game, finding it will be challenging.

That's why I just need to dissect your game!  If you can upload it somewhere, I can root out the cause of the compatibility issue.

 

[That Bread]

annnd I have great news! We just so happen to be early testing the game for a demo! So... it's already uploaded with a unencrypted version. I would greatly appreciate it if you can find the issue! As I know nothing about scripts... I just guess and see if it works. Hopefully it is not one of the scripts that are actually neccessary.

Some of those would be the Yanflys text options for the name bubble and galvs message busts.

Others like the status menu are not so important... but if it is one of the important scripts. Please do inform me, this will mean a major change for us.

Expect a PM in the next few seconds.

 

[That Bread]

I've fixed it! I have the slightest idea of what it could have been, but what fixed it was either me adding the patch for Yamis scripts or me getting rid of Mogs battle plugins. Either way it works!

 

[Shaz]

This thread is being closed, due to being solved. If for some reason you would like this thread re-opened, please report this post and leave a message why. Thank you.

 

[That Bread]

Turns out the error still exists! So I have had this reopened, if anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Since we know what the problem is... or at least think so. I have updated the topic.

 

[Shaz]

You probably should not have changed the initial post. Everybody's replies have nothing to do with the image you posted there.


Did you implement Zeriab's suggestion?

 

[That Bread]

Putting parentheses instead of the... well these {? Tried it in the place of the error and the custom formations, all it does is pop up another error right when I begin the game.

or trying to find the compatibility issue? I already got rid of all the scripts I can without having to redo the entire game.

The old screens of the post. One of which is the place of the error

[Shaz]

??? Zeriab didn't say anything about doing that. He said it looks like the variable is not saved with the save file. That's got nothing to do with changing { to [.


If you try something that someone's suggested, and it doesn't work, at least come back and 1- show us what you did so we can see that you actually followed the suggestion properly, and 2- tell us what happens when you do it - if it gives an error TELL us what the error is. The EXACT and FULL text.

 

[That Bread]

Yup I do not understand what he's trying to tell me. Insert some code somewhere? Where? I have no idea.

Really I keep on reading it... I don't get it. Where do I insert the variable he is talking about? How do I initialize it?

There is no point. For me to tell what those errors are, as you said he never suggested to change the parentheses and that is what I did.  It was simply a misunderstanding, as I am blind once it comes to code talk.

 

[Shaz]

Yeah, Zeriab was saying the save/load logic needed to be changed to include that variable. But I just had a look at the script, and it already IS.


So this is a new game that you STARTED after you added the script? You didn't add the script, load a saved game, then save it again?


I know I already asked you that, but your answer doesn't really exactly address what I'm asking. After you added the script did you start a NEW game?


The error you are getting is EXACTLY what I would expect to see if you were trying to load a save file that was created prior to adding the script.

 

[That Bread]

I started a new game with the script. Then saved it... did not add any other scripts or changes, then loaded it. The error occurred.

I've done this multiple times to try to test it, and it usually happens when I load it or close the program. Then load the save file.

I just tested it now and found something peculiar about this. I start a new game and save it, load it and continue it which works...and if I go to tittle screen and load it, it works.

Closing the game Causes it.
However, if I close out of the game and then load the same file that I just tested above. The error occurs.
