Unknown radar range: -1!

(1/3) > >>

Betamatcen:
I got this error when I was playing JAD 2.2 and it won't let me play anymore! Can you please fix this?


Error: Unknown radar range: -1!

File: radarsetup.cpp
Line: 487

Edit: I got a new error:

Error: Player file has invalid radar range -1

File: plr.cpp
Line: 143

Edit: It seems to fix itself if you Debug your way to the options, go to the HUD config, and hit reset all.
Still would like to see this bug fixed though.

Klorenzo23:
How did you get past the error without the game crashing? I'm having the same issue while running the DEBUG exe, and the game just crashes when I hit the debug or the exit option. I can't even get in to the pilot select screen.

AdmiralRalwood:
Use a recent nightly build and this ceases to be a fatal error.

Admiral-Sabree:
I just had this issue happen when messing around with my radar color. How can I get a Nightly build to work with Knossos. Ive grabbed the most recent nightly and tried to run it with the default files but I still cant get it to launch the game. Window generated by Nightly gives me the same error and the option to debug or continue and neither do anything.

Ok I completely uninstalled Knossos and deleted all my files (extreme maybe but that's the best I could come up with) and the issue is still persisting, so I'm not sure what's causing it. I'm going to keep fiddling see if i can do anything. im out of ideas. Using 3.7.2 gets the game running but in such a huge zoom rate that I cant reach the options.

Another Update, created an isolated FS2 directory, redownloaded the game from GoG and Lowered the resolution. Its working with the Nightly 3.8.1 build. I'm unable to fix the Knossos one at this time but ive got a working base to try it. Welp im stuck until this sees a fix with the builds. It aint going anywhere. Don't know what Betamatcen  (assuming it was the Nightly) did but its not happening on my end.

ngld:
Go to your Knossos' settings, set your preferred stability to "Nightly", save, go to your home tab and update FSO there. Afterwards most mods should use a nightly build.

Reinstalling the game and/or Knossos, mods, etc. won't help since the cause for the error is a corrupted pilot save. Newer builds can handle them better than older builds but depending on what is corrupted in the pilot save, it might still cause issues. The newest nightly builds should convert the pilot saves into json files IIRC. That should help us figure out why the corruption happens in the first place and maybe allow us to fix the corrupted saves as well.
