Blank screen?
« Topic Start: July 06, 2012, 02:03:21 AM »
Is anybody else getting a completely blank screen when they click "play"?

I'm not reporting this as a bug yet because it may be a problem on my side.

Same here.

Yep, looks like an update went bad, and Tom's probably gone to bed already.

Anyone else like how a game breaking bug is something that we "hope" we can fix?

I thought that was a nice way to say that.

It is fixed in r6237.  Entirely my fault, my apologies. :(
The above is accurate 25% of the time, truthful 50% of the time, and facetious 100% of the time.

So what happened to cause that?

I forgot to remove a parenthesis and neglected to test the seemingly minor change.

Was the parenthesis with the link of play and quickplay or what part of the code caused this? I am just curious.

I thought it amusing? If we can't get laughs out of the good and the bad, what's the point?

I left an extra bracket at the end of an if condition in the playchar script so it caused a syntax error as php parses that script when players try to access it by clicking on play.

Personally, I don't know if this is clearer than my previous explanation.
