Startpos = 1 -infinity Problem?

[OMFGcookiecrisp]

I am receiving an issue that states something along the lines that the start position = 1, and that it is -infinity. Being totally inexperienced and just wanting to try this tits mcgee game out, I'm in the dark here. Any tips? Thank you for any help.

tasclient singleplayer mode bug

[OMFGcookiecrisp]

First I start up the Multiplayer client, then I go to singleplayer after logging in. I get to the main menu, from there I hit skirmish. After getting to the skirmish screen I receive the Startpos = 1, - Infinity Error. I try to add the AI, and get it again. Here is the log:

tasclient singleplayer mode bug

*bingo*

just start a regular multiplayer game with a password. add the AI(s) and you're ready to roll! (tip: use fixed or random start pos, none of the AI's can handle startboxes afaik)

[imbaczek]

simpler way without having to connect to anything - use springlobby.

[OMFGcookiecrisp]

I did try using Spring Lobby, however I could create the game and it said it couldn't find some LUA UI Component...I looked for it in the specified folder but did not find it.

Apparently I'm also unable to initialize the AI... XD. The problems just keep coming back. After I create the game, using Spring Lobby, I load up nice and fine until I realize there is no enemy due to the fact the AI doesn't load.

use KAIK as AI
