Build fails on openSUSE Tumbleweed: error CS0219 the variable 'lastEntry' is assigned but its value is never used about opendr

[drogoganor]

Hi,

I've pushed a commit to fix these errors. Please note that you still may run into problems, as I have not tested the mod on Linux. Let me know if this works.

Please note that the mod is barely functional. You will not have a good time playing it. But, it is nice to see all the art and sounds in action. I got roadblocked on #1 which is a very key feature to make the game feel any way close to the original, and haven't spent much time implementing or tuning unit combat and behaviour.

Anyway, would love to hear your feedback, even if it is a resounding "Bah!"

Cheers,
David

Well it builds now, and it starts. But it brings me to this screen:

I select "Quick Install" and after it's downloaded the files (a 16.14 MB download, which is done within 15 secs for me) it takes me back to this screen again. The download occurs without error though, so this is strange. I select "Advanced Install" and it takes me to:

I selected "Download" on the "Demo Game Files" line, it did the 16.14 MB download again, which succeeded and it brought me back to the same screen with the same "Required" text on the "Demo Game Files" line, still with a "Download" button (indicating to me that it doesn't recognize that it's already downloaded that content).

OK, that must be a problem with the install on Linux. It might be failing to extract from the DR demo exe file. Can you supply a copy of your install.log? On Windows it's [User]\Documents\OpenRA\logs\install.log - I'm not sure what the Linux equivalent is.

Cheers

The issue was case sensitivity for file paths. I've corrected a number of entries in the tilesets and mod yamls. Could you please do a git pull, make, and try running again?

[fusion809]

That issue is gone now, but another is here. I try to play as single player, set up a game and when I press 'Play' it crashes and I get this error log: https://gist.github.com/98a5ac2342f843b5e80c406f87f63a82.

[drogoganor]

Hmmm, that's a strange one. I can see the same error text for this issue: OpenRA/OpenRA#13778

Apparently this is due to rix0rrr.BeaconLib? I'm not really sure where to go from here just yet.

Is there an exception-[timestamp].log file at all?

[drogoganor]

Ah, I don't suppose you're using Togran are you? Currently I don't have a way to distinguish Togran unit and building prerequisites so they are only available if the expansion is installed. Only Freedom Guard and Imperium will work with the demo files installed.

[fusion809]

Never even heard of Togran, so I presume not.

EDIT: Ah you mean the faction. No I wasn't using them. Turns out that I used Xenite in these games and that's why it crashed. With Freedom Guard & Imperium only it ran fine.

[drogoganor]

Hmm, OK, that's weird. Just played a regular game? Didn't use the debug menu or anything?

In any case I've commented out the two expansion structures for now. Just yaml changes, so please try a git pull and run the game again.

[fusion809]

Na, I'm a simple, curious user I don't use the advanced options like debug unless I'm required to. When I create certain units (I wasn't expecting this error so I'm afraid I don't remember which) I get this error:

Thanks for your effort. There was a spurious palette definition on a building. I've removed it now. Please do another git pull and try running again.

[fusion809]

Seems more stable now, but it seemed stable before too, before it crashed. I'll let ya know if such a thing happens again with continued use.

[fusion809]

By-the-way I've created a package (openra-dr) for this mod for openSUSE Leap 15.0 and Tumbleweed in the openSUSE Build Service.

[drogoganor]

Great - thanks very much. Glad to see it worked, even though the mod is in a very lacklustre state right now.

[drogoganor]

This should be resolved now. Can you confirm at all? Probably not by now!
