Whack-A-Mole Tutorial crash problem.

by Andrea Farid Marsili · in Torque Game Builder · 08/14/2010 (7:44 am) · 5 replies

I'm studying the official documentation for TGB. Allthings work as expected but the script of the part 4 of the Whack-A-Mole Tutorial gave me some problems: the game crash when it spawn the first mole.
I thought that this problem was 'cause of the speedUp process so I remove the speedUp related code and the game stop to crash.
I was happy but I discovered another bug: the mole spawn only in the right corner and if I click on another respawnPoint the game crash...
Anyone could help me?

EDIT: the game also crash when i try to quit the game...

Do you mind providing us with a copy of the console.log file from the game's directory so that we can try to figure out the source of the problem?

I didn't know that there's console.log file.
Here's the log:

Did this get answered elsewhere? I basically have the same problem.

Your game doesn't crash and log messages are different, so no, you don't have the same problem.

You're Right! I had too many windows open and commented on the wrong post!
