The Powder Toy

How to crash TPT.

  • tombuutkamp     5th Nov 2013 Member 0 Permalink

    I've found a bug in Powder Toy. When you place CONV next to each other in dotted rows, all with different CTYPE's and put some liquid on it, Powder Toy crashes. If you don't understand, take a look yourself.

    And if you don't get the error, this is what is says:

     

    "ERROR

    Details: Memory read/write error

    An unrecoverable fault has occured, please report the error by visiting the website below."

     

    Now, it's not bothering me, but I thought I would just post it.

    Thanks in advance.

    This sometimes happens, it's a common bug that just came up in TPT. It does happen to me sometimes.

    Doesn't happen for me either. Some system specs could help. (TPT should really tell you, to give information of your machine with the error report...)

    Are you on a mac? Nobody seems to be getting this except for people on mac, it's a CONV + SOAP bug or something like that.

    Thanks for reporting this, it looks like the cause is a bit more specific, placing SOAP on CONV seems to reliably crash, this will probably be fixed in the next update

    Do not work for me?

    PCLN(SOAP) do not crash.

    PCLN(WATR) do not crash.

    Create something like this maunually do not crash.
