Well, at least you read the forum topic and totally followed the rules.

This is the expected behavior. If you have a wp file that goes in and out of instances, it will eventually crash as the game client doesn't manage memory too well.

Would it be possible to logout or teleport if we get this error?

Sorry I thought you said the game crashed.
So the game doesn't crash? It's really hard to pinpoint the cause of these errors. I think it usually has something to do with a strain on memory, like running too many clients at once or using other memory intensive programs while rombot is running. I can't be sure though.

I have exact same error after resurection, CPawn:update()
I'm thinking the last SVN update has issues, I noticed the micromacro.exe and micromacro.cpb weren't in the SVN at all. I posted it on the micromacro forum support.
Not sure if any other files were missing.

I was trying to set
to pawn.lua...
Code: Select all
if( self.Alive == nil or self.HP == nil or self.MaxHP == nil or self.MP == nil or self.MaxMP == nil or
self.MP2 == nil or self.MaxMP2 == nil or self.Name == nil or
self.Level == nil or self.Level2 == nil or self.TargetPtr == nil or
self.X == nil or self.Y == nil or self.Z == nil or self.Attackable == nil ) then
error("Error reading memory in CPawn:update()");
player:logout("true");
end
...but it didn't work. So it's not possible to do this if we get memory reading error? That could be wrong place also but i don't know where in code bot stops if we get error.
I did waypoint that involves running in instance and i got that Error reading memory in CPawn:update() very randomly and i think i should do something else. Yesterday it crashed twice in hour but run well this night and at morning it was running and few mins later it was stopped and died.

Well, the error function is being called
before the player:logout function in your code. error() stops execution, therefore, the call to player:logout() was never reached. That, and I'm not sure why you have
true in quotes. You probably don't want to pass a string.

I thought that was just error message. I placed logout above it and removed "" from logout. Going to test it now to see how its working.

Finally got that pawn.lua error.
I added logout when it finds nil value and bot would stop working. So when it happened it logged out and i didn't die and that was what i hoped for. There was also post where some added checks for nil values and i have those added also. Dunno if it helps but haven't got many errors and was suprised that didn't get any errors yesterday with pawn.lua. I add this file if someone wants to try it. Modified from line 262 to 297.
Only thing what this didn't do was post that pawn error. There should be print before logout or something.
Code: Select all
error("Error reading memory in CPawn:update()");
Edit: If setting LOGOUT_SHUTDOWN is true then it will shutdown your pc i think. If its false then it should just go to character select screen.
Code: Select all
<option name="LOGOUT_SHUTDOWN" value="true" />

I have this same problem, I just get a CPawn error in the middle of botting with no reason, and I don't know how to pursue fixing it. Anyone have any ideas what might cause this?

I might have stumbled across what is happening by chance.
I had bot running and clicked on ground (which drops target) and got cpawn error instantly. I'm guessing it tried to update the target and there wasn't a target and so got the error.
So I am thinking with the new edit box thing and using escape, if it does escape when there is no boxes up then it will drop target and cause the error. Does this sound like what might be happening?

Actually, it's easy to test. I just removed the edit box changes and clicked the ground while the bot was running and still got the error.
By the way, there is a possible fix being explored at this post

It needs more testing so if you are having this error, try it out. Just replace pawn.lua.
