combat does not end if missles/mines on screen

NeonElf — Sun, 25 Sep 2005 04:37:31 -0000

A mission will not end (nor a custom battle) until all
active mines/missiles are gone. This does not work well
with mine layers, that spam mines. It doesn't mater if
you destory all the enemy and only the surviver's mines
are active. ANY mine or missile will continue battle.

arrays do not work

I tried to get arrays to work, they didn't.

heading says 0->64 means 0->360

NeonElf — Sun, 25 Sep 2005 04:32:29 -0000

the documentation says the heading is 0->64 and some
fleets are designed with a mod 64 when using setheading
for this reason. However the documentation is
completely wrong. The heading is a regular angle from
0->360.

I can't get the On_Jam or the DO.Jam events/objects to
work. Help!

Lack of menus

Anonymous — Fri, 23 Feb 2001 06:43:55 -0000

Game immediately begins running on opening... I suppose they're two default fleets. Battle ends, get the "Proceed?" box. Yes and No both proceed to splash screen... Program hangs. Using latest and most general release (386 / 4.0). But then, it could still be my fault. I've checked through all the docs, any hints?

Scan Cone Distortion

The scan cones get distorted at set angles. They appear to have one cornet of the triangle drawn to the opposet end of the screen. This does not affect the fleet.

Error parsing mission profile

Anonymous — Wed, 06 Sep 2000 22:23:06 -0000

Environment:
Fcclone-586.rel0.37
PII 300Mhz Win98

When executing Fcomm or Fcommx the program's main window presents a red background with the message "No file" and an error window appears with the message "Error parsing mission profile, line #: Missing { after MISSION keyword". The line number is not the same depending on the file executed. Line 0 for fcomm and line 39254704 for Fcommx. Then the OS error message "This program has performed an illegal operation..." appears and the program is closed.

window structure aliasing

Thomas Kay — Thu, 10 Aug 2000 21:16:59 -0000

I think cbt.cpp
the windows all use the same memory for their window structures(!)
This violates the strict-aliasing flag possibly
may lead to memory leak/ destruct problems
fix is simple...todo
