Title: Ships trying to attack themself
Post by: FUBAR-BDHR on December 15, 2008, 01:19:19 am

Had this happen a couple of times now in TBP.  I get the following:

Int3(): From e:\storage\fso\fs2_open\code\ai\aicode.cpp at line 3306

Code: [Select]

if (attacker == attacked) {
Int3(); // Bogus!  Who tried to get me to attack myself!  Trace out and fix!
return;
Don't know if it's a bug or just a fluke that happens now and then.  I can play the same mission for days and not get it then all of sudden it pops up out of nowhere.  Just played a mission I played several times over the last couple of days and half an hour or so into it (and of course just when I'm about at the end) it pops up.

I wouldn't be called the EAC Ouroboros, would it?

Nope.  Brand new mission and only one EA cap ship in it and some thunderbolts.

I now get visions of Alpha 2 punching himself in the chin....

I take it from the humorous nature of the replies that this isn't a real problem then.

It definitely shouldn't be happening. I think one solution might be to change the Int3() to a debug log entry (or at least have one preceding the Int3(). That way we can at least check if it is always the same ship class attacking itself.

I have a feeling it's either an AI class thing or the good old TBP Gunship ship type.  Probably a combination of the two.  First time I saw it was right after a wing of Drakh Raiders warped in.  At least one of them had an AI of Captain instead of DH Pilot.
