SXRPG AddOn 5.2.3 AI Broken

Post by twaee »

SXRPG's AI seem to be broken. At game start, an error pops up:
<Invalid WML found> [unstore_unit]: variable 'set_#' doesn't contain unit data
<Invalid WML found> [unstore_unit]: variable 'leader_recruit' doesn't exist (#)
the number 'set_2' increases to the current empty position in the game (1-player game: 2, 3-player game: 4). In a full house this error disappears.
In the second error, the number corresponds to the current number of players playing the game.

After the first round and occasionally throughout the game more errors pop up:
<Invalid WML found> [unstore_unit]: variable 'nocaptainqq2' doesn't contain unit data
<Invalid WML found> [unstore_unit]: variable 'nocaptainqqq2' doesn't contain unit data
<Invalid WML found> [unstore_unit]: variable 'killer_leader_2' doesn't exist
These errors appear on some maps, but not others. Not sure if these are really the problem as the same problem exists in maps without these errors.

In these games the AI doesn't work, meaning that the enemy doesn't do anything whatsoever. They don't move or recruit. Even the immoveable units don't attack on their turn. These errors occur whether on official server or local game, lone wolf or full house. The era is fully up to date. This error also occurred whether I host or someone else hosts. The player's units seem to have no effect.

Also, don't know if this is related, but the game is extremely laggy, even on local games.

Thanks for debugging. The version on the 1.14 server seems to be exactly the version from the 1.12 server, without the fixes in https://r.wesnoth.org/p627421

Edit: @the add-on mods: even with a broken AI it's useful to have the add-on on the server, as it's one that needs all players to have its built-in era installed before joining the game.

Thankyou replacing the configuration files with those edits worked perfectly. The game works as it should now. However, the errors still pop up.
