Bug In Game

#1 by Ariel Schnee - Feb 8 2010

When I enter the west locker room on the first floor while looking gor Andrea, and find Andrea, the game crashes when it goes to fight mode against the Mind Worms.



I'm sorry, but an exception occured while executing your Ren'Py
script.

TypeError: blit() takes at most 4 arguments (5 given)

Odd - I can't reproduce the bug on my test environments, and that's a mandatory combat, so I'd expect to have gotten other reports of it by now.

What version of Windows are you using? Does it happen every time you enter the mindworm combat or only some of the time? Does it happen immediately, or only after you and/or a mindworm attack? (And, if the latter, what attack(s) did you use before the crash?)

Windows XP Home SP2 with a downloaded SP3 upgrade

Everytime I enter the combat, before I can do anything there.

Game version 1.2.17

Upload your closest savegames to the Mindworms to
http://spikycaterpillar.dreamhosters.com/savegame-upload.html and I'll see if I can figure it out.

I've got a possible workaround at http://spikycaterpillar.dreamhosters.com/patches/1.2.17/enginepatch.rpyc - to use it, back up your current Science Girls folder, then replace C:\Program Files\Science Girls\game\enginepatch.rpyc with the new one and see what happens. (It should hide the crash; it might cause some graphics to be drawn with black backgrounds instead of blending)

Done.

Thanks - unfortunately, I still can't reproduce the bug even with the save. Did the workaround patch work?
