Ok, I can't get rid of processes once I have started them. I've tried sending an s_kill signal to them, i've tried putting "return 0;" in them, i've tried "let_me_alone();", and it simply will not end the processes. This results in my game becoming incredibly slow after a few seconds due to the computer processing un-needed processes, and key strokes checked in a process (wich should have been killed) still reacting. But I don't think this happens with every process I try to kill, as when the game is lost, and i restart it (without actually ending the program) it works properly again, before slowing down, again, due to un-needed/offscreen processes. And the retarded thing is that when i lose, the way i kill all of the other processes is with "let_me_alone();" Any help? ____________ |

Maybe you've got "let_me_alone();" before you call a process?

if you signal() to an ID (1 process) make sure the ID of the process is still in the variable; or use get_id(); if they won't end there is something wrong with your fenix version. try this Code: program test; begin //you can comment 2 of these three statements to test things seperately return 0; signal(id, s_kill); //I hope this is done instantly do(); //------- write(0,100,100,0,"there is a bug in my fenix version"); loop frame; end end process do() begin let_me_alone(); end does it loop and say "there is a bug in my fenix version" or does the program terminate? If it terminates there is nothing wrong with signal(); or let_me_alone(); I didn't test the code (don't have fenix installed), but normally it should work... other people try it out and see what it does. It should terminate as if nothing ever happened. EDIT: what's wrong with the [_code_] tags? I have to write the last world under the closing tag. [Edited on June 16, 2006 by Rhovanion] ____________ |

You need to post some code demonstrating this problem.

Try it on a different computer? What OS are you running? Windows XP Pro/Home? ____________ |

It is said that women like to talk about their problems but don't want help having their problems solved. Yonni reminds me of that. Why aren't you giving us info so we can help you? We cannot just magically fix things without info. I'm convinced this is a user error, so show us some relevant code! ____________ Personal website: http://www.loijson.com |

seems to have fixed itself now :S, why couldnt it do that a couple of weeks ago? I was about to post some code, it was a matter of me being arsed to cut out all the unneccessary bits that you dont need and would just look confusing. ____________ |
