"Add WP Flag" Crashes Game

I'm now using sPlOrYgOn's lastest release, which has fixed a few bugs.
However, when I tried to set flag for a waypoint, I was disconnected, took me to the console. The error message I got is:

Quote:

Host_Error: PF_MessageEnd_I: Refusing to send user message ShowMenu of 197 bytes to client, user message size limit is 192 bytes

Other wp commands seem to work fine so far.
I don't know if anyone has reported this bug, if so, please excuse me for being new to this new great pb project.

Re: "Add WP Flag" Crashes Game

Sorry but I cannot reproduce this..
The only thing I got to happen was..
When I try to add all the flags to one waypoint it crashes the game :(

Re: "Add WP Flag" Crashes Game

hehehe... that's why I'm doing this in YaPB:

Code:



void UTIL_ShowMenu( edict_t *pEdict, int slots, int displaytime, bool needmore, char *pText )

{

   if (gmsgShowMenu == 0)

      gmsgShowMenu = REG_USER_MSG( "ShowMenu", -1 );



   while (strlen(pText) >= 64)

   {

      MESSAGE_BEGIN(MSG_ONE, gmsgShowMenu, NULL, pEdict);

         WRITE_SHORT(slots);

         WRITE_CHAR(displaytime);

         WRITE_BYTE(1);

         for (int i = 0; i <= 63; i++)

            WRITE_CHAR(pText[i]);

      MESSAGE_END();



      pText += 64;

   }



   MESSAGE_BEGIN(MSG_ONE, gmsgShowMenu, NULL, pEdict);

      WRITE_SHORT(slots);

      WRITE_CHAR(displaytime);

      WRITE_BYTE(needmore);

      WRITE_STRING(pText);

   MESSAGE_END();

}

Re: "Add WP Flag" Crashes Game

Hello, just downloaded sPlOrYgOn's lastest release (release 2).
I did a fresh install (cs1.3 retail + 1.5 update + lastest metamod), then installed podbot.
But this problem still happened to me.
"wpmenu --> 5. WP ON --> wpmenu --> 3. Add Flag --> CS Crashes"
CS actually didn't crash, but disconnected me and took me to console.
Same error message returned:

Quote:

Host_Error: PF_MessageEnd_I: Refusing to send user message ShowMenu of 197 bytes to client, user message size limit is 192 bytes

Huntkillaz, I didn't even get a chance to choose what kind of flag coz I was disconnected right after I press the button 3 (which is "Add Flag"). And I just chose a random waypoint (normal or a point that has been set flags).

Am I doing something wrong here? Isn't there anyone else get this error?

Thanks

this IS a bug in the bot code. sPlOrYgOn, you must have changed one of the waypoint menus and now the menu text is longer than 192 bytes. Ensure each menu's text is LESS than 192 bytes, else the engine will refuse sending the message.

And Whistler's fix is not really appliable in the PB26mm source code... I changed a lot of things in the menu display code.

Just ensure your menus do less than 192 characters long and you'll be fine.
