Default No Waypoints Save - 24-01-2005

This game and its bot it's indeed wonderful. The only problem I encounter since now is that I'm not able to save my waypoints automatically generated: when I do wpsave from the console the game just quits. And even if I'm using the autpwp 1 option I see no waypoint file in my Cube directory.

Some help? Thanks in advance

Yep, I forgot in the archived file to create a folder called 'waypoints' in the bot folder. Just create it and it should work.

I had some code, there, hold on where is it...

ah here
Code:
// make output directory
length = strlen (output_file);
for (index = 0; index < length; index++)
	 if ((output_file[index] == '/') || (output_file[index] == '\\'))
	 {
		 strncpy (dirname, output_file, index);
		 dirname[index] = 0;
		 POSIX_mkdir (dirname, 666); // build each subdirectory recursively if needed
	 }
output_file is a full pathname
dirname must be a writable string
POSIX_mkdir is #defined like this:
Code:
#ifdef WIN32
#define POSIX_mkdir(a,b) _mkdir(a)
#else
#define POSIX_mkdir(a,b) mkdir(a,b)
#endif
That code will parse the path and call mkdir on each subdirectory recursively. If the directory already exists, it will leave it as is and mkdir will return ; if it doesn't exist, it will be created. This ensures you always have a correct path.

Nice one
Meh I keep including pieces of code made by you
