also cant find any other files on me comp relating to the crash as all the crash files are from over a year ago

[DaleStan]

That is, as far as I can tell, completely useless, except to confirm that you are indeed using r2050. If no CRASH###.txt file is appropriately recent, follow the directions in my signature.

[duffman74au]

ok cool thanks



Is that the shoot your after???

[DaleStan]

It looks to me like you skipped the step:
> # Continue to run TTD by pressing the "F9" key or clicking the "run" button.

[duffman74au]

well i think i have it this time but my comp froze as it crashed

[DaleStan]

Is it a problem if I recognize that code? (OK, so the BPL prefix is pretty distinctive.)</codespeak>

Certain GRF files cause the AI to do things that I neither expected nor tested. Turning off the AI (in the difficulty settings) is your best bet until I find a proper fix.

[duffman74au]

ok got it sorted now thanks i did turn off the AI also reordered the GRF files
Thanks for that

[DaleStan]

This should be fixed by the next nightly (r2052) in about 15 minutes.

one offtopic question:

what is a "nightly" ?

[DaleStan]

Where have you looked for illumination? Specifically, have you asked both Google and Wikipedia, and have you searched any project-specific websites?
