Title: dancepositioner and the Borkdancer
Post by: seelindarun on 2008 October 25, 20:21:52
On a comm lot, the borkdancer throws a steady trickle of errors.  No other CC or hacks, all EPs.  I know the dancepositioner is in test, but I've liked using it in my older 'hood, so I hope it won't be discarded.

Dancepositioner has no influence on breakdancing because I have not implemented it yet, as I don't have any breakdancers yet. Therefore, the cause is due to unrelated issues, either default EAxoid or Tight Pants.

The playable sim is not the one breakdancing; it's an NPC breakdancer on an unowned comm lot, like the firedancers in BV. 

EAxoid borkage is not to blame because without the dancepositioner, the NPC dancer doesn't throw errors.  It's not necessary to interact with the breakdancer, s/he errors as part of regular programming.  Also, it cannot be tight pants as I tested with no other hacks in the game, not even other awesome ones or clean templates.  I even tested in a newly generated 'hood, so the errors cannot be due to one borked NPC.  Is there anything else I could have missed?

The dancepositioner isn't placed anywhere in the 'hood, but perhaps something in the globals interferes with the NPC breakdancer code.  Anyway, it looks like the dancepositioner is not compatible with AL.

I don't see any apparent reason for it, at least not in the current version, but I've repacked and reupped it...where did you GET it, anyway? I don't remember giving that to you. That was another one of those Gwilly-People-Only things.

I got it from ffs/AL/test, I go there to shop for all my Gwilly hacks. 8)  The one I was testing has a datestamp of 10/5, and I checked to make sure I had not missed an update before I posted.

ETA: Yes!  Re-packed dancepositioner works now!  Baaah.
