How do I report a bug in CMUD?
If you think you've encountered a bug in CMUD or something isn't working the way you think it should, try searching the forums to see if the issue has been reported. It's possible that the problem is just a difference between CMUD and zMUD, or that it's already on the bug list.
If you're sure that your issue hasn't been reported before, then post a new thread. Be sure to mention which version of CMUD and which version of Windows you're using, including whether it's 32- or 64-bit. Try to describe your problem in as much detail as you can - give the exact steps you used to encounter your problem. Pressing Alt-L is different to choosing "Load" from a menu. Describe what it is you expect to happen and what's actually happening. Above all, try to be clear - read back what you've written and see if it makes sense. A sentence like "I created a button in a window and now it doesn't display" isn't helpful because it's not clear whether or not you mean the button or the window.
The first thing someone's going to do upon seeing your bug report is to try to make it fail for them. For that they need to be able to do what you did, so don't be offended if people are asking for more information about how the problem happened. Intermittent or complex bugs can be very hard to track down. |

Cmud has an integrated crash reporting system that can be used to report many errors.
If the error reporting fails, or you find unusual behavior, or a non-crashing bug you can post the relevant information to the forums.
Since your using the BETA version, please post to the BETA forums to keep things nice and... somewhat organized.
Additionally under the help menu there is a "Send Feedback" option which can be used, but I've always just run over here and posted on the forums. |

Sorry Fang. But it's not really a bug. It's a crash. It happened when one of my triggers fired off, not sure which cause i got so many. I am attempting to isolate it, but it has happened many times in different situations, so it's hard to pinpoint, but here is the error report anyways.

Turn on the Script Debugger window and it can show you what triggers are running when you get a crash.

Thing is, it's not all triggers, i use a bunch of alias's so i can have one fire off another without sending input to the mud. However, i think i solved it by rebooting my computer. I haven't gotten the error again, yet. I am stress testing it to the max to see what could have caused it to crash cMUD so many times. i got a rather large error report of it crashing, but i think it had something to do with my computer being on for a few weeks without a reboot. Will post more if/when i figure it out.
Thanks,

Ok. It's not what i thought it was. Maybe it's something with my script, or something else. I keep getting different stuff like :
List index out of bounds (200).
List index out of bounds (274).
List index out of bounds (287).
List index out of bounds (290).
Access violation at address 00D674CA in module 'CMUD.exe'. Read of address 0000009D.
Access violation at address 00D67372 in module 'cMUD.exe'. Read of address 0000009D.
The "List index out of bounds" errors don't crash cMUD, but the Access violation ones do. I tried running script debugger and i even tried running each trigger//alias on it's own. When run on their own, no issues. When using one to trigger off another, i get one of those previous messages, among other numbers for the out of bounds and addresses. |

In the Messages window of the Script Debugger, make sure the last option (something like "Show all script execution") is turned on. Then it will tell you when an alias is called from a trigger, etc.
The "List index out of bounds" is definitely a problem. If you can narrow down how that error is happening in your script, that is probably the root cause. Typically once you get one error, it will often propagate and cause multiple other errors and eventually the access violations.
Once you find the combination of triggers that is causing the error, post the XML code for the triggers so that we can all try it here ourselves to try and reproduce it. |

It's part of a whole script. It's just an attempt at creating 'texas hold 'em poker' for my mud using triggers. I am probably gonna just scrap the project and start over, hopefully correcting the issue somewhere down the lines. If someone wants the script to test it out, possibly finish it without any errors, PM me and i'll send you the XML for it.
If you do want it, keep in mind, i still consider myself a newbie scripter, there might be a whole bunch of unneeded stuff in there, so expect the worst :)
Thanks for the help anyways.
*NOTE* I seem to get the List index error less often than the Access violation error. The last one i got before i decided to start over was Access Violation at address 00000000. Read of address 00000000. |
