buildFighter in Events?

[wotan321]

I am having a crash a few turns in.

I have edited the mod, but I am hoping you can give me some insight into how I can fix the part I have broken. Here is what I get in my PythonErr.log

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "CvEventInterface", line 25, in onEvent

File "CvEventManager", line 198, in handleEvent

File "CvEventManager", line 451, in onBeginGameTurn

File "CvRtWEventManager", line 102, in turnChecker

File "CvRtWEventManager", line 1060, in buildFighter

RuntimeError: unidentifiable C++ exception
ERR: Python function onEvent failed, module CvEventInterface

I have added UUs, a few techs, some new events.

It loads fine, plays about 4 or 5 turns, then I get a CTD that blames the main EXE file.

What does the buildFighter module do? What would be the effect of editing it out of the CvRtWEventManager? Can I cure this problem while leaving it in?

I know I don't provide all the info you may need, but any help would be appreciated.

Did you change any fighters?

Anyways, I'll tell you what it does:
It helps the AI to have a decent airforce. A small cheat if you will.

You can disable it totally by deleting the following lines from near the top of that python file:

                # Fighters
                if (self.Map < 99):
                        for i in range(gc.getMAX_CIV_PLAYERS()):
                            self.buildFighter(i)

Thanks, I did that. I never could figure out WHY those lines caused a problem, it is doubtless some change I made that hosed it for me.

Dale,

I wasn't able to figure out the problem with the Python that was crashing the mod for me. As mentioned, I simply ## out the lines for the BuildFighter stuff. I simply went back and halved the cost of all fighters to see if that would make a difference. Later on, I noticed my neighbors had 3 or 4 fighters circling each city, so I guess my little change helped. Every civ was not doing it, but some were, making bombing very costly for me.

Some testing games Ive been playing with beta 3 Ive seen cities with 15+ fighters on intercept, needless to say that my airfoce only was used for defense
