The bug report page doesn't work

Post by gatorized »

Attempting to submit a ticket at https://osdn.net/projects/freeciv/ticket/ results in error 502.

I occasionally get the following error when starting a new game : in package_player_info() [../../../../server/plrhand.c::1159]: assertion 'game.info.turn < 1' failed

Whenever this error occurs, there are always several instances of it; in the four player game I just started, there are eight copies of it. However, the game starts with no issues, and I have played games to completion that threw this error without ever encountering any unexpected behavior or crashes.

Which freeciv version? Which ruleset?

There's assert like that on line 1171 (not 1159) on freeciv-3.0 HEAD. That one is affirming that player color (e.g. border color) is properly set after the game has started.

Looking at 2.6 code, the assert is exactly the same there, despite number of the first actual turn being changed from 0 in 2.6 to 1 in later versions. It's possible that the assert is overzealous, and some color setup happens only in the beginning of the first turn (after the turn number has already been set to 1)

As latest release has been made less than 24h ago, I don't think so.

Resolving the bug tracking issue unfortunately takes some time, but that's temporary.
