CA + KAIK = crash

[Smiff]

hi, this has been happening for a week or so (of SVN and CA builds) and no one seems to have noticed it?

start any game of CA with a KAIK bot and Spring crashes right after the bot loads.
"there is no disk in the drive. please insert a disk into drive D"

btw.. what the heck is with that error? thats the error almost any time Spring crashes and it's totally confusing for newbies! i've asked before about that.

have reported to CA, no response there.. not sure whose fault it is, probably Springs?

thanks for your attention:

[KDR_11k]

AIs for Spring are notoriously crashy, we know it happens, most people just don't care.

[clumsy_culhane]

also, AI's have to be recompiled to run on SVN (or any version that the AI wasn't compiled for) spring don't they?

[Smiff]

ok but it worked in 76b1 and SVN until recently.. is there a newer compile of KAIK please? this was the only bot that could play properly for us..

[Forboding Angel]

After seeing all those errors in the infolog, in a way I'm surprised that your copy of CA runs at all.

[Pressure Line]

one thing to note is that SVN builds arent neccesarily stable. that of course being the point of a TEST build, you introduce new features then hand it out to testers to see what breaks.

if you want consistent, stable gameplay you really need to use the release version of spring (ie 0.76b1). i thik therin lies your problem.

[Smiff]

076b1 doesn't work on my LAN, CA in particular won't sync (have started seperate threads on this and am waiting for b2)

topic, crash still isn't fixed as of
SVN 5411
CA 1252

no response from CA team AFAIK but Kloot has been trying on his end.
i'm just really good at finding bugs for some reason

thanks.

[fliebel]

problem still exists... CA 3393 + KAIK 0.13 = CRASH
I'm on ubuntu(46 bit, iMac), running Spring 0.78.2.1 (installed by package manager)
CA = fine
KAIK + BA/XTA = fine

ps: I'm not absolutly sure about version number since I'm running Mac os X at the moment and have not yet found a way to access my ext3 partition or run spring on mac.

[hoijui]

The CA site seems to be down since at least a day already.
so i could not get it to test myself.
Though it seems your version of CA is quite old already (they are now at 41xx), plus most AIs in the current release crash on Linux 64bit anyway. then again, you said KAIK worked for BA...
well, there have been a lot of bug fixes in AIs since the release, and especialy for KAIK! best is, you get current master of spring, compile it yourself, and go on wiht testing then, sending us the infolog.txt for the crashes, if there are still any.
This is the best way to uppen probability that KAIK will run with CA in the next release of spring. If it is too much work for you, send us the infolog.txt of your crash wiht KAIK + CA at least.

"thank you for your contribution, and we wish you a nice and pleasant stay in our community, as long as you consider it your own."

[Kloot]

The probability won't be upped much, the long and short of all these crashes is that KAIK needs a Lua parser to play CA again (a fact of which I've been aware for quite some time). I plan to expose part of the engine's internal toolkit through the AI interface in the near future, maybe before .78.2.3 / .79.1 rolls around.
