i haven't had any issues with the designations, but with the buildings.

Damn, it appears that the save I uploaded had been autosaved over just before I copied the folder.

I was able to recreate the original bugged save, fortunately, and it still crashes frequently when trying to build shale block walls at the bottom of the moat. I've attached two more saves below.


Save 1 - (Original) Post-bug (disabling TWBT and proceeding past the crash point fixed the issue):
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2dQD-3xGxMtanVBUGk2V0pmVWc

Save 2 -  A bit before the point of crash (build shale block walls at bottom of moat and maybe try smoothing as well):
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2dQD-3xGxMtaVM2ZVFhV1NqMWM

Save 3 - Closer to the point of crash (proceed as above):
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2dQD-3xGxMtaEIyNGNBR3NqWXc

Package 1 - The complete Dwarf Fortress folder with DXDiag.txt, save 2, and save 3 included.

Tried on two PCs today - does not crash! I'll keep trying...
What tileset/overrides are you using? Also, when disabling TWBT, are you setting print_mode to 2D or STANDARD - better set to STANDARD because 2D is too different. Maybe other plugins you're using interfering?

[Pvt. Pirate]

so i'll try it woth standard and without any dfhack plugins. once with and once without dfhack enabled.
it could also be possible that this is caused by the mousecontrol plugin.

[mifki]

Can you try just dfhack+twbt, without other plugins (mousequery is ok)? You can temporarily move other .plug.dll files from hack/plugins to somewhere else and then put them back.

Just tried with all plugins disabled and moved, with the exception of twbt, mousequery, and automaterial. Crash occurred similarly, this time when trying to place a door. I used STANDARD print type previously, not 2D.

i currently use the LNP 0.42.06-r02 with TWBT+dfhack+"mouse controls" (is that called mousequery?)
that's where i got those crashes. the game runs at 20-30 fps most of the time and rarely gos down to or even below 10.
then out of nowhere when building walls, bridges, doors, tables etc. it crashes.

[Kebra]

Is there anything we can do to give you more information?

I too face these crashes. It seems to happen more frequently when i build a lot fast. If it's related to doing commands fast or simply that i am building a lot; i don't know.

Are there logs i can find and give you? Some sort of verbose debug mode or similiar?

My eyes cry when playing with TWBT

Hi mifki, I have a question about some of the sorcery behind rendering the screen.  When I use

Code: [Select]

dm = require('gui.dwarfmode')
size_x = dm.getPanelLayout().map.width
size_y = dm.getPanelLayout().map.height
in most modes, I get the size of map panel in tiles.  But in TWBT mode the width seems to be much wider than the actual display, but otherwise acting normally (i.e., the reported width is higher when the minimap is suppressed).  My wild guess is that the reported width is the panel's width in text tiles.

I'm trying to get the coordinates of the center tile of the screen using something like

Code: [Select]

pos["x"] = df.global.window_x + math.floor(dm.getPanelLayout().map.width / 2)
pos["y"] = df.global.window_y + math.floor(dm.getPanelLayout().map.height / 2)
pos["z"] = df.global.window_z + df.global.world.map.region_z
but it's off in TWBT mode.  This might also be related to the odd centering behavior that others have noted.

Is there a spot accessible to Lua that reports if TWBT is active and the width of a TWBT map in tiles, or the widths of the graphics and text cells so that I can scale it myself?

Thanks, TWBT is an amazing tool, and I'd hate for my effort to not be compatible with it

[PeridexisErrant]

Any plans to release builds for the DFHack beta?

[lethosor]

Any news on this? I would really like to address this at some point to stop TwbT from breaking so many other tools, and to avoid the need for the separate automaterial/mousequery/resume plugins. I may be able to help with this in a week or two, if you need help, but there's an example for at least one of the relevant hooks in plugins/devel/color-dfhack-text.cpp.

DFHack offers a way to hook into Gui::getDwarfmodeViewDims(), the C++ equivalent of getPanelLayout(). The problem here is twofold:
a) The Lua version calculates stuff itself, rather than calling the C++ function, which means it can't be hooked into.
b) TwbT doesn't actually hook into that function in the first place (it distributes a couple modified plugins instead)
I suspect that TwbT hooking in and making the Lua function delegate to the C++ function would solve the issue.

mifki: I'm kind of busy this week (hoping to get r1 done!), but feel free to stop by #dfhack or something and I can try to help with the hooks. As far as I remember, you'll only need to add a few functions to twbt.cpp, and that'll fix some issues with Lua scripts and eliminate the need to distribute automaterial/mousequery/resume. (There's an example in devel/color-dfhack-text.cpp if you want to play around with it - not sure if it provides an example of the getDwarfmodeViewDims() hook, but it should at least be similar.)

Any plans to release builds for the DFHack beta?

I'll test for a bit more tonight (still hasn't reproduced a single crash!), and will make a build then.

Got any problems? Because tonight is over already

he didn't mention reporting back

[mifki]

Exactly. New build is on http://build.mifki.com
