Oolite Bulletins

[mcarans]

I tried to put "Closed" in my previous topic by editing the subject, but I can't.

I wanted to differentiate between my suggestion that it might be SR2 or Orbits and what I think might be the case now, that my crash is in Oolite itself.

Can anyone replicate the problem? Try doing the following:
1. Go to maximum time acceleration (Pause -> Right Arrow 4 times)
2. Alternate between pausing and resuming several times particularly with lots of ships on the radar

BTW, a separate feature is that I noticed that pirates or indeed thargoids have trouble shooting you with missiles or lasers when you have accelerated time (just like with Frontier First Encounters as I recall). I had a thargoid warship follow my unarmed Porcupine all the way back to the station from the system entry point.

Then "Closed" should be it! (Yoda's syntax )

@mcarans

I was having sudden, random freezes and crashes with 1.74.x, while using the speech symph. When I installed BGS, I turned the speech symph off (BGS ship sounds and speech symph sounded awful together) and all the crashing and freezing packed up and went away.

Have you got a crash log to send to the developers as per the instructions, or simply post it here? I am sure it would help.

The crash log is in this thread that I wanted to set to closed: http://www.aegidian.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=8278

It doesn't look like it contains anything useful for debugging. Is there a way to increase the log level?

[Ahruman]

You can enable additional log messages by editing Oolite.app/[Contents if Mac OS X]/Resources/logcontrol.plist (or copying it to your AddOns folder), and enable all possible log messages by setting _override = yes. Unfortunately, most crash conditions don’t result in anything useful being logged since they are, by definition, unanticipated.

Another 2 more crashes

Didn't increase log level but I do see GLSL errors. Could these cause a crash?

I'm inclined to think now that it is an Ubuntu Lucid kernel problem as I have read about freezes on Google and had one with similar symptoms when I was not playing Oolite.

[mcarans]

I had another crash - I ad full logging on. The last few liens of the huge log are below. Are they any help?

[Commander McLane]

Question to the developers: Does no actual crash log exist in Windows, apart from the normal game log?

Depends - There's options for logging to the Application Log, creating a Dr. Watson dump, and a few other things.
