Mask wraith softlock

Postby oneeyedjoe » Wed Aug 09, 2017 12:57 pm

I searched a corpse and mask wraith spawned

And then I couldn't do anything: couldn't move (with mouse or kb), couldn't check inventory, etc. I could hover over demons with mouse though (but couldn't rightclick on them for more details). I closed and reopened the game and wraith disappeared.

Eeek. :( I wish I knew which one that was, but with a soft lock like that there's no way of knowing it. :( At least the problem mostly resolved itself. I'll go through the wraith spawning code and make sure it isn't missing any armor on bad data... though, actually.. there may not be *that* many Tower:7 mask wraiths in the current data set. That might help me narrow it down a bit. :D

Thanks for the report!

From my knolage of programming in general, something prevented it from spawning it's demons. It's possible that it somehow coudn't find any demons or got cuaght in an infinete cycle. Sadly, I can't be sure of what exactly caused it.

Found the busted ghost... there were only 2 Tower:7 mask ghosts to pick from. Investigating now. :D

Interesting.. he ended up with 7 demons in stable, but only 6 slots... how can this be?

Oh bloody... no way.

He must have died right after a recruitment that put him over the discard limit... but before he was forced to discard.

Wow. That's... well, it's definitely a bug.

I'll fix this in the next build: for now I'm just going to delete that particular ghost. Even after I fix the bug there's no saving that one. Thank you very much for the report!
