Test version available (2.4.0)

Huh, strange about the 'update-down' thing. Thanks for the heads-up. Still think you need some way to exit out of a full-screen launcher, though.

The new update broke Extensions to some extent. If you load more than a handful FG locks upon loading.

Thanks for the explanation, Goblin-King. You're right in that the details become very important, and I appreciate the breakout.

Another thing I noticed is that the auto-save appears to not be working. I do not receive any 'Campaign saved.' messages while idling; and the db.xml file isn't updating, so it doesn't seem to be doing it in the background.

Cheers,

Would be nice to have an onValueChanged for all standard fields (i.e. diefield).

Right now, I can't find a way to get diefield change events. I tried tying to the onUpdate function for a diefield node, and when I use getDice() in the handler, I get the value of the node before the dropped dice are added.

function onInit()
getDatabaseNode().onUpdate = onValueChanged();
end

function onValueChanged()
local dice = getDice();
for k,v in pairs(dice) do
local msg = {font = "systemfont"};
msg.text = "Dice #" .. k .. " = " .. v;
ChatManager.addMessage(msg);
end
end

Thanks,

Another kudos for the message of the day. I learned today that you can:

* Temporarily enable shortcuts by holding the CTRL key
* Quickly creature pointers and areas by clicking and holding both mouse buttons on a map. (default = line, SHFT = square, CTRL = circle, ALT = cone)

Sweet,

Ahh, I thought everyone knew those ones.

We're still investigating the multiple extension lockup bug reported, and will be pushing the release date back until it is done. Hopefully, not too many days.

Thanks for the update.

Looks like the whole "test vs. release" idea is turning out beautifully.

Investigating this issue, I found one possible dependency extension checking error, but I am doubtful it is to blame here. Other than that, we haven't been able to replicate this. Can you list the extensions you are using when this happens or narrow it down to some specific extensions?

Has anyone else ran into this problem with the test version?

[Oberoten]

As far as I can tell it is when an extension tries to replace a piece of graphic allready replaced by another extension.

The extension affected seems to be a skin for StarWars which replaces the basic character-sheet graphics with a more modern set. (Datapad)

It loads fine when loaded alone, but as soon as I start popping in others FG locks when I press the start button. The problem seems to come up early on since it doesn't get to consume more than 57 Mb of ram (as compared to the normal 200+ mb. )

This worked fine in previous version of the ruleset but locks in the curent wether the extensions are loaded into the foundation or my own ArsMagica set. (Yes we run StarWars with ArsMagica. )
