Weird text string bug

[arielnmz]

Hello everyone, this is the problem

 

I create a new formatted string and store it to [email protected] like this:

0AD3: string [email protected] format "obj_id_%d" OBJ_MODEL // Nombre de sección de ini

And if I store something into var [email protected], the text is displayed like this:

obj_ -Ûi62

However, anywhere in the script before storing anything into [email protected], the text is displayed/read correctly:

obj_id_362

Then I tried to use this:

0AC8: [email protected] = allocate_memory_size 64

But I get the same results.

 

I hope you can help me... Thank you everyone!

That's because [email protected] variable will use 4 variables - [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] to store the string.

So while you need text in [email protected], you must not touch these variables.

Ok, so you say locals are stored into contiguous addresses?? What if I allocate 32 bytes on [email protected]?? Thanks!

If you want to use CLEO4 opcodes with allocated memory, just refer to regular variables, and not longstrings. In your case, use [email protected] in sprintf (after you've called memory alloc, storing the memory pointer to this var).
