Crash on comment "//"

[EvanAgain]

So Game Editor crashes everytime I try to comment out this VERY long line of code.

Code: Select all

int i = 0;
Actor* myActor = 0;
actor_to_screen(&xmouse, &ymouse);

myActor = CreateActor("Draggable", "simplegear", "(none)", "(none)", xmouse, ymouse, false);

i = rand(3);
myActor->animpos = i;

myActor->ItemBaseType = i;

//Add Random Mods
myActor->ItemMod1 = rand(4);
myActor->ItemMod2 = rand(4);
myActor->ItemMod3 = rand(4);
myActor->ItemMod4 = rand(4);


/* Adding "//" in front of the line below causes GE to Crash */
strcpy(myActor->ItemName, ItemModList[myActor->ItemMod1].prefix + " " + ItemModList[myActor->ItemMod2].prefix + " " + BaseTypes[myActor->ItemBaseType] + " " + ItemModList[myActor->ItemMod3].suffix + " " + ItemModList[myActor->ItemMod4].suffix);

This has been reported and fixed, but you'll have to wait for the next release of gE.

ok, I am also getting an in-game crash when trying to use that line of code... I am thinking it may be an out of range error, because I am using random numbers, but it really shouldn't have this problem.. I am not sure whats going on.

You are trying to add strings to concatenate them. You can't do that in C. You must be getting a suspicious pointer conversion warning for that as well. It wouldn't be a range error, if those variables you set are ints, because they will be cast down to 0-3, not 0-4. Also, out of bounds errors are better reported by gE.

No warnings, just a complete crash. How do I go about putting strings together?


Googled it: strcat
