Library Problems
Elexxorine
21 Aug 2007, 16:05Right, I load my game up and everything is working fine. Me and my brother have both been playing HavenHold today (only works with LAN IP's though, as there's a router firewall). I'm having a really weird problem. Basically I have most stuff in libraries (practically all except the define game block). Now one library does all the commands, it says in the logs it was loaded fine but when I try to do any commands, it doesn't work... Other libraries are working fine, as the maps have loaded and all the character creation stuff works fine... No idea what the problem is, anybody got any ideas?
((WOOT HavenHold!!!))

21 Aug 2007, 22:30When you say, "it doesn't work," what does that mean? Is there no response? Just blankness?

22 Aug 2007, 11:10Well, it's like it hasn't loaded it. All the commands in it come back with 'you can't do that', even when they have custom error messages or just print one simple line.

22 Aug 2007, 20:22Two main possibilities:
The commands themselves have something wrong,
or there is something wrong with you !addto game bit.
Remove all but one simple command from the library and test...
If that doesn't work you're maybe missing an !end or something.
If not, then it's probably an open/close bracket missing somewhere, and adding the commands one by one will show which one.

22 Aug 2007, 23:07It was working before, and I haven't changed anything in it either. The !add code is fine I double checked that, especially as the other libraries are fine and working...

23 Aug 2007, 11:17... But have you done it though?
It's obvious you're missing something, so you need to take steps to find out where it is, then elliminate them.
That's how logic works, you rule out possibilities after they are tested.

23 Aug 2007, 11:54lol. Remember how I always say it's the little stuff you miss, how about not having '!addto game' and '!end' in your library. Shoot me now!

23 Aug 2007, 15:22I know. Just delete this or something....

23 Aug 2007, 15:40Nah - it's a nice proof that I'm right.. at least some of the time
.
Follow the rules of logic, eliminate all which has been tested, and whatever remains - however improbable - must be the truth.
