Lots of changes:
Anyway, as an update to what I had to say yesterday in the bugs thread, here's a summary of this:
Good news - the new dynamic units settings more or less solved the Talin memory growth issue in testing
Even better news - in the course of final soak testing and clean up, prior to pushing it to SVN, I actually discovered the cause of the leak itself (at least much of it), and was able to fix it even without the use of the new dynamic unit entity loading!
Not so good news - in-depth soak testing revealed that I still have a rare (like every 10 turns or so on a save with circa 10000 units) bug in my new code that causes a crash. I still haven't pinned this down, but it only happens if using the new dynamic unit entity loading, and I'll keep looking so should have a fix at some point
The take-away however, is that this new version should largely address the problems, with just the default settings. If you need even more memory saving you can enable the dynamic entity system, but be aware it is known to have a lurking bug currently, so right now that is NOT recommended.
This push also includes a fix for Volkarya's crash, as reported in the bugs and crashes thread last week.
Please let me know how you get on with this, especially those with memory issues, and Volkarya.
- Fixed a major memory leak
- Added a new dynamic-loading mechanism for units to save further memory
- Fixed a CTD that arose in rare cases on culture recalculation (Volkara's crash)
- Fixed a miscalculation in the AI's unit upgrade budgeting
- Reworked internal processing of realistic culture spread to be more efficient

As usual, Koshling comes to the rescue and allows us to keep growing C2C past what any of the devs for civ 4 ever imagined.
Good Job, again.
So the leak was in the DLL after all?
No, it was unit entities, but related to the way the DLL handled them under some circumstances, so all the delving into entity management flushed it out

Updated to the new SVN version this morning, I seem to be flooded with invisibl units that cause a crash upon selecting them.
Also, I don't know if this was intended, the new foresty and hill movement promotions.
Well Guerilla has its double movement removed, however the 2nd level woodsmen had not.
I do not know if this was intentional or not, or was fixed in the SVN patch this morning. (Tried reinstalling it, but I still get innvisible units.)
I'll try removing the entire thing and doing it again.

It looks like the entity chnages are not working right for anyone but me! I'll look ino it as soon as I can later today. Til then sorry.

No worries, I was more hoping that it was an isolated problem that I was experiencing.

Looks like one of the recent SVN changes broke AudioDefines.xml...

Hopefully fixed the crashing that everyone was experiencing today. I made some last minute changes yesteday and obviously didn't test them well. Sadly the nature of what was wrong leads me to the conclusion that I may have also been hallucinating yesterday about the memory issues going away with the dynamic units turned off.
Please let me know how you get on with this latest version (both with or without dynamic units on).

well mainly me
Well, the bug that was causing the crash is gone. I was able to get past the point where it crashed before without it crashing. Now I can't get units to end their turn - units that expend all their movement are just sitting there, and using the "Skip Turn" button or the space bar doesn't work. Any ideas what is going on?
Edit: I can get the units to skip if I group them first. Even if it's only one unit.

Well, I wanted to post that the bug that was causing my crashes was fixed and couldn't resist mentioning the new problem. I posted a saved game example in the bugs/crashes thread.
Thanks for the new techs, I'll add them to my spreadsheet. Do you think it would be good to post it to the Modders Documentation thread?
