Enemies whacked out in 559

Confirmed! Although ropes do move to chase after you...

I also had rope problems when I made one that was faster than the regular one...

Rope: fixed.

As for the Zol, it's the same old Darknut splitting bug, that I still don't see 😞

I'm getting sick of this enemy split bug. Here's a test build I've made for you; please run it until ZC crashes, then post allegro.log.

Is this one also fixed as a result? http://www.armageddongames.net/forums//thread/98989/

Freedom: This is bugging(no pun intended) me. How do all you splitters crash ZC? All mine work fine but it still seems like a major issue if there is some kind of splitter crash bug that no one can find untill after 2.5.

EDIT: I see DD beat me to it.

It's getting worse then because before it was JUST the darknuts, I tried to get the others to do it and they wouldn't. 😉

I'll get back with you on the quest. 😉

Need it all or just this?

Thanks. Here's the next one:

Just the bottom part again after decrypting.

running init script
about to make gel
made gel, which is not nullabout to make gel
made gel, which is not nullabout to make gel
made gel, which is not nullabout to make gel
made gel, which is not null

Well, there goes my hunch.
Next diagnostic:

Hunch would be too easy. 😉

Well, I think I've narrowed it down to one method...

We've got us a good consistent crash going here, it happens first time every time.

Found it.

Yep, you sure did, it's one dead bug!!
What was it?

Armageddon Games web site: http://www.armageddongames.com
Zelda Classic web site: http://www.zeldaclassic.com

I also tried those splitting Helmasaur's too (splitting darknut).
They split without a hitch.

Buggy pointer arithmetic was causing ZC to read from a bogus memory address, which makes it benign in some cases and crash in others. Thanks to your help that's no longer an issue 😊

Hey... don't give me your credit.
All I did was slap a few Zols and report back what they had to say about it.
Your the guy with the BIG hammer. 😉
Thanks for all your efforts, it looks better every day.

Confirmed fixed in 564
Dead Bug!
