Odd / Inconsistant #event bug

nahsalot · Post by **nahsalot** » Fri Jun 11, 2004 10:19 am

The following tidbit of code works correctly for other people, but not for me. (the event never fires, and it appears that it's just me, and I have no idea why that might be)

#event Zone "You have entered #1#."

sub main
/echo Testing
:loop
/doevents Zone
/goto :loop
/endmac

Sub Event_Zone
/echo Zoned
/endmac
/return

Are you trying it with VANILLA mq2? e.g. no modifications/customizations/extra plugins?

Yes, I have copy and pasted this to multiple people too, and we are all using vanilla MQ2, it doesn't work for me, but works for another (copy and paste).

Some of my events work, others don't, this is extremely odd.

I have a tell command parsing macro that works, but this doesn't.

Also, all my events were firing twice, but when I removed #*# from one of the events, and replaced it with #1#, it stopped. All sorts of weird freaky things.

Have you tried recompiling?

Have you tried removing those quotes around the event definition?

this gets more troubling, this bit of code works perfectly for me prior to running one of my macros.

After I run this other macro though, when I try to run this test code as a completely seperate macro, it stops working.

that's more believable, assuming a bug in blech. and you're using the latest ZIP, in a brand new directory? Blech version Lax/Blech 1.5.1?

Are the events named the same in the real and test macro? If so, try renaming one event to TestZone and see if the macros still cause conflicts. Perhaps something isn't clearing the event definitions when you kill off the other macro.
