Spring RTS Engine

Hi spads users,

Spads returns an error with the new version of spring 0.88 :I did a private message to bibim to inform him the update he should fix.

I could suggest you one thing, with vbs, we found that for keeping your spads autohost running without UnitSync version check, you have to disable cheking version, like this :
1. open spads.conf,
2. Search for 3. Replace byClose and save (or save and close, but more actions ).
By waiting bibim update, this will fully works, you'll get only a warning.

Code: Select all

NOTICE   - [SPADS] AutoHost restart scheduled (reason: requested by [ACE]FabriceFABS in channel #[ACE])
NOTICE   - [SPADS] Game is not running, exiting
NOTICE   - [SPADS] Initializing SPADS
WARNING  - [SPADS] Lobby server requires Spring 88.0, UnitSync is using Spring 88
NOTICE   - [SPADS] Close battle scheduled (reason: Lobby server requires Spring 88.0, UnitSync is using Spring 88)

Actually it's not an error, just a warning about a version inconsistency. It does what the NOTICE message says: it closes the battle. But you can re-open it manually with !openBattle

Thank you!
Problem should be fixed now.

Close and save (or save and close, but more actions ).

Indeed this works, however now that problem is fixed I strongly recommend restoring the original "onBadSpringVersion:closeBattle" value, to avoid outdated autohosts staying open on next Spring release.
