AggrorJorn Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 We have seen it many many times on the forum: People are linking a CSG bursh to another entity script, but the script fails on startup because the linked in entity is nil. The reason: the CSG brush does not have mass or an entity script attached and is being collapsed at the start of the scene for performance. http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/topic/15761-entity-gets-has-stopped-working-error/ This 'collapsing' has caused a lot of headache for a lot of people. People often don't know that CSG collapses when the scene starts and what the result of this is. Also, the workaround for setting a mass or attaching a script is still unknown by a lot of people. Since people are not aware of the technical reason of the CSG collapsing, I would say, make sure that linked CSG brushes are not collapsed. Even if they do not contain a script or have a mass. 5 Quote
Rick Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 +1. If it's a quick workaround Josh could just attach a dummy script himself to linked CSG brushes when the map is loaded from the game. Seems like a cheap and easy way to do it. 1 Quote
Josh Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Yes, this must be added. Someone must get on this immediately! Oh wait... Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Okay, I implemented a fix that will prevent this in the future... 1 Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
