IT KEEPS CRASHING!!

Here is my dilima.

I'm making a plugin and I'm doing the mission. The brief shows up before you accept and the acception brief works find. But then while I'm playing the game and I go to the quick brief( you know where you press I and it list the missions you have) and the game crashes.
Has anyone had this problem and knows how to fix it or may have a clue of what I'm might being doing wrong?

Thnx in advance.

Put a text file called debuglog.txt in the folder with Nova in it and get it to crash. Reading it afterwards (and seeing what's wrong) might solve your problem. If it doesn't, report to the big guys.

I put the debug text next to Nova and it gave me all the errors while the game was loading but not the gameplay. Guess that didn't work. But thanks anyway.

OH BIG GUYS? CAN YOU HEAR MY CRY!?!?!?!?! :frown:

Can a mod transferer this topic to the EV Nova Board so hopefully they will see it?

One could reasonably make the assumption that bad data being fed to the game engine during startup might possible have some connection to the fact that it crashes when you try to play the game.

If I shift it to the Nova board, it will just get shifted back - this is where it belongs.

Amen to that. Fix the errors in your plug and you should have less problems, whether it ends up being the solution to your main problem or not.

Ok, I fixed as much as I could in the debug log and it stills crashes. I even did the rid number plus the description number setting up the description in the right spots and it still crashes. Anymore suggestions? Do any mod wanna take a look at the plug or deblog?
