CH 20 - Missing Line?

by Zachary Perschall · in Torque Game Engine · 08/16/2004 (5:52 pm) · 4 replies

On page 566, I notice that we are asked to open file:

C:\Koob\control\server\server.cs

Then find the line:

$Game::StartTime = 0;

That line is not in my file. I started flipping through the book and cannot find where we added this line in. Is it missing, or am I missing IT?

The $Game::StartTime line should have been included in the book text in chapter 5, but I see that it isn't. In Ch 20, the immediately ensuing copy says "Just beyond that line is a block of exec() statements...". Use that to help find where your change should take place, it shouldn't be too hard. If you are still stumped, let me know.

Oh, I knew where to put it. Just trying to give a heads up.

Also, I noted that the location and name of the TommyGun Shell DTS file and other related TommyGun graphics files seems to contradict between the code and where we are told to copy them.

Another line I can't find.

Page 576 says find the following line:

%this = %col.getDataBlock();

in this file:

C:\koob\control\server\players\players.cs

I don't see this line...please assist!
