Invalid floating point operation |
Hi guys, I'm building a mod from scratch and keep getting this error while testing my progress in game so far.
Whenever I try to click on research to bring up the tech areas - the game crashes with an Invalid floating point operation. I cant begin to figure out what is causing it. The error doesn't occur when I type in alltech cheat. However components are missing that shouldnt be when I view alltech. Maybe comeone can take a look at my tech areas file or have any ideas?
Re: Invalid floating point operation
Tech Areas file was built from scratch. I haven't a clue if it's some kind of invalid formula somewhere. I'm using the SE5 Gui editor. Also some of my components show up as level 10 when I start a new game. (Which was the max level for that component.)
Re: Invalid floating point operation
I went back in and took a look at my tech areas file, I had a thought it might be crashing because some tech areas start at level 0 with no requirements. I just checked SE5 standard, and it seems that the tech area Repair does the same thing. So now I'm at a loss. What else could it be? Using the wrong requirements evaluation (AND, TRUE, TRUE) can that cause a problem? Does there need to be a minimum amount of tech areas for the file to load properly?
Re: Invalid floating point operation
not sure if it's important but did you keep the:
=======================================================================================
*BEGIN*
================
and
=======================================================================================
*END*
================
Tags?
check the:
Number Of Requirements := 1
Maybe on one of them you have it set to 0 or doesn't add up to the actual number
Or there is the obvious checking of the formula, if somewhere in the formula you have it dividing by the level of another tech and that tech's level is 0 you'll get a divide by 0 error
Re: Invalid floating point operation
Not sure what it was, I actually just deleted both my techareas and components and I'm going to start over again. Thanks though for everyone's replies so far.
Re: Invalid floating point operation
Did you edit the Techarea.txt file, perhaps you removed or modified something there.
