LukcGeofftheMedio, is there a particular place where to propose new techs? (diffs included)17:17
GeofftheMediothe forums, content creation section17:34
LukcArf, I hoped there was another way. :(17:34

*** GeofftheMedio_ is now known as GeofftheMedio18:07
LukcGeofftheMedio, is there also a tool to debug the various .txt files that contain techs/parts/whatever ?18:15
GeofftheMedioif you run freeorion and start a game, it will output some error messages to the .log files if there are problems parsing the content.txt files18:38
LukcIs the log the same thing that is displayed on stdout?18:39
LukcOr does it contain more information?18:39
LukcWell, I’m gonna see anyway.18:39
GeofftheMedioI suspect it is the same in most cases18:40
GeofftheMedioat least for parsing issues18:40
LukcYes, it is.18:41
LukcWell, then, it’s not really helpful. :/18:41
LukcI’m glad my problem has been solved, since. /o\18:42
GeofftheMedioit's quite useful actually, as it locate approximately where your syntax error / typo is18:42
GeofftheMedio(although use of macros might complicate things, as the error reporting wasn't implemented with them in mind18:43
GeofftheMedioso the line number might be off if you're using a macro18:43
LukcActually, it seems more that the line number might be off even without…18:43
Lukc(*-even?@18:43
Lukcs/@/)/18:43
GeofftheMedioas I said, "approximiately"18:44
LukcIt seems to don’t display anything if a bad keyword is used.18:44
LukcYes, but in my case it wasn’t, at first…18:44
Lukc(of course, I only added one tech, so I knew where it was coming from…)18:44
LukcBut the exact line would be much more useful.18:45
GeofftheMedioit reports a parse error. getting a single line where things are broken isn't well defined in all / many cases18:45
LukcMaybe the parser is not strict enough, then.18:46
LukcI mean, if any unrecognised keyword displayed a warning/error, it would be so much easier to find it…18:46
Lukcs/it/where the problem is/18:47
GeofftheMediono so simple, due to arbitrary text being allowed (needed) in some cases18:48
LukcOk.18:49
LukcBut I suppose in many other cases warnings could be displayed?18:49
GeofftheMedioin many there are18:50
LukcAh, I got the unlucky case, then. :(18:52
GeofftheMedioand if you use a keyword where another is expected, searching for a bad keyword won't help18:52
LukcIn fact, I used EffectsGroups instead of EffectsGroup.18:53
LukcSo, I’m not sure what you mean. /o\18:53
GeofftheMedioexactly that18:53
GeofftheMedioboth are valid keywords18:53
GeofftheMediosearching for something that isn't a keyword won't detect that error18:53
LukcBut… "EffectGroups" is not present anywhere in the file. :o18:54
LukcIs it just unused, then?18:54
LukcOr the parser is not case-sensitive with keywords, maybe?18:54
GeofftheMedioit is not18:55
GeofftheMedio(case sensitive)18:55
LukcOk.18:55
LukcAh, then I see the problem. ^_^”18:55

LukcIs it me or the 0.4 has been released, but the trunk version still contains 0.17?20:50
LukcAnd is it me or “Orbital Mining”’s description says it will be possible to mine on Gas Giants ?20:55
Lukc(by the way, is it right if I report things here instead of the forum? :()20:57
LukcAnd I think I’m receiving “Famine struc $planet.” when the max population of that planet increased.21:05
LukcAnd is it me or the homeworld is the last planet, but that its name does not correspond? (eg Thule III is the 5th planet, and the 3rd planet is Thule IV, and the 4th is Thule V…)21:25
LukcAnd, I think that when I select a fleet, that I order a move, that I don’t select anything else, that I end the turn, I can’t select a ship of my fleet, and I can’t re-select directly my fleet (I have to select another fleet, and then only select mine again).21:55
LukcGeofftheMedio, you sure you have not a bug tracker?21:55
*** Digit01 has quit IRC22:00
LukcOh, and Asteroid Mining has an ambiguous short description. It says “Improves Mining”, but mining wasn’t possible before… so I suggest replacing it by “New Mining Target”, or something like that. :322:06
