[2.36] Argument Still on Stack
|
My copy of cMUD is crashing on me a lot at the moment, and I can't seem to work out very clearly why. However, I am getting a lot of 'ERROR: argument still on stack's, and a lot of 'ERROR: Operand CONCAT requires two parameters' or similar, and they seem to come moments before a large number of the crashes. What kind of things might cause these errors, because I'm having trouble tracking them down as the errors are very generic. :(
[Edit: Weird stuff like this...]

It looks like you need to use #send {blacklung} in a function instead of just having it in your list of commands.
So I would do a search of your packages for the word blacklung and try replacing it with the above. |

Sounds like you have a bad script or trigger somewhere. Try turning on the Script Debugger window and enable the "Show All Scripts (n)" Message. This should show you what scripts and triggers are being executed when you get the error.
Once you determine which trigger or script is causing the problem, then you can post the details here for us to look at. Just right-click on the setting in the tree view on the left side of the package editor and select Copy and then paste the text within [CODE] [/CODE] tags here in the forum.

You don't need #send in that case, so I don't think that's the problem. You can put a MUD command on it's own line just fine. It's when you do this in a function that it's the problem, but without seeing the original poster's scripts, I'm not sure he is using a function. |

I'll do the best I can with these weird bugs, but the majority of them are either too random to set up and catch, or end up causing cmud to crash and close, so I can't save the debug messages. This one, as far as I can tell, caused the database variable 'mechanics' to be emptied. If you need more info to decipher this please let me know. *hope*

But I don't see any "argument still on stack" error (or any other errors) in that one. That's what we are trying to catch.
If you are getting CMUD crashes that cause it to close (where you can't just click on Continue Application), then there is something seriously messed up or corrupted in your installation. If you have used a lot of old beta versions then it might be time for a clean install. If you can click Continue Application then you should be able to copy/paste the text from the script debugger window.
You might also try cleaning your settings file by going into the Package Editor and select File/Export to save your scripts to an XML file. Then exit CMUD, rename your PKG file for that session and then open the session offline to let CMUD create a blank package. Then go back into the Package Editor and use File/Import to import the XML file that you previously saved.
Also, if you have ported your script from zMUD, be sure to run the File/Compatibility Report in the settings editor to make sure that all of your scripts are compiling properly. |

Hum humm. I missed the debug report this time, so I don't know if this will be any help. But I was just bashing normally and suddenly cMUD flooded me with a list of all my triggers, then some errors.

And then something else weird is this: the 'elxkdb<>-' bit of my prompt normally has colours attached to it. (it would be high,green). However, the prompt after the final ERROR: ... is the last one to have colour. When I noticed this I thought hmm and just typed '#co 12' into cMUD's command prompt to see if colouring was working properly. Anyway all it's doing now is colouring that line, even now that I'm a lot further on. Probably isn't helpful without debug so I'll make sure to keep it up all the time. Is there any way to have debugging automatically be saved into a text file as it goes along? |

No, but I'll try to add that sometime in the future.

Correct...without the debug there is no way for me to see what it is doing. |
