Schmelta-V 1.0d12 Bug

Right now I'm using Schmelta-V 1.0d12 to make a few missions for one of my plugs for Escape Velocity. However, I've run into a rather large bug in it while I was working on the mission bits. Whatever I type in for either 'AvailBitSet' or 'AvailBitClear' it will beep and say 'Bad AvailBitSet' or 'Bad AvailBitClear'. No matter what I type in, it simply won't work. I am just not typing in the write thing? Is there some specific bit that I am supposed to type in for it to work? Please help.

Thanks in advance.

The bits can't be greater than 256. Make smaller numbers as bits.

I tried that. No go.

Captain: More as an experiment than anything else...have you tried entering your BitSet and BitClear information using ResEdit? You might try that, then test your missions by playing the plug. If that seems to yield good results, then perhaps you might try again to work with the plug using Schmelta-V. I always think it's a good idea to take advantage of alternate tools for writing a plug. If one program gives you trouble, perhaps another can ease the way.

You might also ask someone else here, someone well-versed in plugcraft (not me, probably :)), to actually take a look at your plug.

Thanks. I'll try that.

However, I still think Schmelta-V has a bug.

Schmelta is a very idiosycranic program, it does all sorts of wierd ass things if you don't follow an exact procedure when using it.

For example, if you delete a resourse, save and quit before making a new resources. Else, it will crash.

I think Schmelta is no longer supported though, so you're out of luck :frown:
