Dso problem

#1 A .dso file is created by the engine automatically when running your game if a .dso for the file does not already exist.

#2 I get some new shotgun code in the cs file. I ran the engine and it still reads the old shotgun code and it will not create the new dso even when I delete the old one. So I cannot see the new shotgun in action.

#3 Hm, that's odd. Are there any errors showing up in the console?

#4 I'm not saying this to be stupid but, be sure to save your .cs file... and also make sure you didnt place that code somewhere else, like in another file. I did that the other day, I had two copies of the same functions and was wondering why it was being called twice.

and sometimes i get into the zone so much i forget to save what i did before i test it.

#5 That's a good point, I've had stuff like that happen to me as well. I've had cases were I copied and pasted a datablock to make something new from it, only I forgot to rename it.

#6 Yeh i did that, and then i took that code and made a new file from it but forgot to delete the old code.
thats where 'find in file' comes in handy. :D

#7 Check to make sure the shotgun.cs is in server/scripts. Make sure it is exec in the game.cs in server/scripts. Then launch the engine and check to see if dso compile if not then there is an error in that script. Like Scott said check the console for errors.

#8 I checked the console for errors and I found one.
it said line 214 syntax error.

#9 I looked at the line and it was just a comment.
kind of like this // stuff ;)

#10 Check the line before that one.

#11 I checked it. I was wondering if the variable isShotGun needs to be loaded into the engine and recompiled or not. because it is getting an error on that line.

#12 Can you post that code section.

#13 Actualy I have solved the problem. I just needed to comment out some code. very stupid.
think you all.
