This game is crashing after the first round in the editor.

[Ghosty]

It's basically a remake of my old Asteroid Dodgers (or Meteor Shower or whatever I called it) from the old site, totally redone from scratch.

I need to work on adding the final touches and some balancing to make it actually survivable, but it should be working just fine.

However, when I load it in the editor and hit play, after it completes the first round, I get a NegativeArrayException.

Code:

java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException
org.jbox2d.dynamics.Island.init(Island.java:118)
org.jbox2d.dynamics.PhysicsWorld.solve(PhysicsWorld.java:669)
org.jbox2d.dynamics.PhysicsWorld.step(PhysicsWorld.java:572)
net.worlds.World.step(World.java:736)

net.worlds.Main.gameStep(Main.java:657)
net.worlds.MainApplet.run(MainApplet.java:236)
java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

Any ideas why? I'm going to try to debug it some more later, but if anyone else can help that'd be great.

Here's the script I believe to be the problem:

Code:

function checkWhoSurvived()
local players = game.Players:getChildren()
for q = 1, #players do
players[q].Stats.Played.Value = players[q].Stats.Played.Value + 1
if players[q].Alive.Value == true then
players[q].Stats.Survived.Value = players[q].Stats.Survived.Value + 1
else
players[q].Alive.Value = true
end
end
end

function redoWorld()
local spawn = game.World:getChild("Spawn")
local players = game.Players:getChildren()
for w = 1, #players do
if players[w].Character ~= nil then
players[w].Character.Body.Position = spawn.Position
end
end
game.Terrain:generate()
end

function ticky(top, num)
for z = 1, num do
local players = game.Players:getChildren()
for x = 1, #players do
players[x]:message(tostring(top - z))
end
sleep(1)
end
local players = game.Players:getChildren()
for c = 1, #players do
players[c]:message()
end
end

function cleanup()
local parts = game.World:getChildren()
for y = 1, #parts do
if parts[y]:isA("Circle") and string.sub(parts[y].Name, 1, 6) == "Meteor" then
parts[y]:remove()
end
end
end

while true do
game.World.BGM:stop()
game.World.Meteors.Create.Value = false
cleanup()
redoWorld()
local players = game.Players:getChildren()
for e = 1, #players do
players[e]:message("Beginning new round!")
players[e].Alive.Value = true
end
sleep(4)
for r = 1, #players do
players[r]:message()
end
game.World.BGM:play()
game.World.Meteors.Create.Value = true
ticky(140, 140)
checkWhoSurvived()
end

The game freezes, and then the music begins to play again. So I suspect the problem is somewhere here:


game.World.BGM:play()
game.World.Meteors.Create.Value = true
ticky(140, 140)



EDIT: It is also now crashing with this error at other times as well.

At some point in the past week or two, this bug seems to have been fixed. Thanks, Jacob!

It's back. :/ Same error, and like before, only happens at the end of the first round.
