[38c] Infinite Loop After Custom Name
« on: July 11, 2008, 05:54:42 pm »

Fresh install, I used a custom name ("Brackenwood") for a tiny world, and every world after that, custom or random name, and it rejects everything it sees.  I quit, deleted the world out of the save folder, and it still rejects to infinity.  I let it run while posting this, and it got past 6000 and does not stop.

EDIT: I set it to log rejects, and it appears to be "not enough peaks" for every single one.  It does this regardless of world size, seed, name, anything.

EDIT2: I should also mention that on the first world (the one that actually got created), I had accidentally pressed F6 before generating it, resulting in a world_gen.txt in the init folder.

Known bug.  Delete the custom world settings file.

To quote the Unary Frogg:

Nah, it was fixed on March 2nd, I just haven't been able to release.  If it's there, go into data/init and delete the world generation parameter file.  It doesn't know how to load it correctly.

Xcuse me, do you press S anytime you make a new world? To reset the seed.
Also if the S is not the reason then do what the Qmarx said, it should help.
