2 things I've run into

Post by llew silverhand »

How do folks!

First off, I'm enjoying the demo thusfar - after remaking, and avoiding the fungi for now...wandered into them almost right away last time...

I've come across 2 issues - first, I right clicked to mix, but then hit ESC while my ingredients were in the mixer, and they are now lost and gone forever. Is this a bug, or something intentional?

Second, I was just camping on the beach to regen, and the game completely froze up on me. Had to End Task on it. Is there a log that is generated that I could provide for you to peruse?

Thanks!

They both sound like bugs.

The mixer should be easy to hunt down, the frozen computer issue may be a lot harder. There is no log for us to look at- if the game didn't spit out an error message then it could be hard to track down.

Thanks for reporting these- I'll get right on them.

Basilisk, I'll take a look at my event logs and see if I can come up with anything.

EDIT: OK, here's what I've found that's related to the error.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Application Hang
Event Category: (101)
Event ID: 1002
Date: 11/20/2007
Time: 12:00:45 AM

Description: Hanging application Eschalon Book I Demo.exe, version 0.0.0.0, hang mode hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000

Unfortunately, this looks fairly useless. But, there it is :)

Thanks again!

I want to say this may have something to do with a random encounter while you were sleeping- perhaps a misplaced entity causing the game to bomb.

Let's call this a one-time obscure bug, but if anyone else sees this problem post your experience here.
