I notice that when the forcefield shrinks, the ship is released, but yeah -- beyond that it definitely is getting stuck. I would have thought this was a floating point precision error, but I thought we had fixed these. I'll definitely have to investigate this prior to 1.0. |
|
|
A possible fix is to just set "forbid approximations but allow imprecise" to true for the range check. Another possibility would be to add a bit of extra push at the four corners (45, 135, etc), as the GetPointAtAngleAndDistance(forcefield_radius + 10) is less than the GetDistanceFrom(forcefield_radius) check. That's what's causing the infinite loop to begin with. |
|
|
Please feel free to give those a try -- I think that forbidding approximations in particular ought to do it. |
|
|
Yeah, setting forbid approximations to true fixed the issue. I was really confused at first, I thought you still needed to manually move the built external code dll to the moddable logic dll folder. I had built the new dll before starting testing because I wanted to just drag and drop after confirming things were stuck, but nothing was stuck anymore. |

Wonderful, thank you! * A more CPU-expensive range check is now used for forcefields, which is also more accurate and prevents ships from getting stuck on the edge of them. |
