Hi,
Another "oldie" trying to get back in the saddle. What it looks like though, is that everything has gotten faster, now that I'm slower. Back in the day, I think everything was slower, and I was a little faster.

I'm going through old scripts, and found some of SupG's. Some fail due to the absence of an "info_inc" file. I read that EP had pieced together an info_inc from the split files that SupG later made from the info_inc, but can't find it. The last I read was that it was posted on Grimy's. Dang, that was always a good place.

So, would anybody happen to have the file, or maybe a point to where it might be found?

Thanks.

Wow, this was so long ago that I didn't even remember doing it. But, sure enough, a quick search of my PC, and I was able to find my recreation of that script. It is attached.

Good luck,
+EP+

Thanks! I'm gonna try and catch up, but I'm not as spry as 25 or so years ago. My son was about 8 when he helped me play, and he's past 30 now. Time passes so quickly.

I remember when 2002 was far enough into the future that it was a good name for a game about space and exploration.

Where exactly would this file go?... in the SupG file folder good enough?

I use a few of SupG's scripts also and am also getting those "fails" due to missing "includes", hope this helps!

The file would go into an include folder , be it in scripts or a SupG/include
as long as the file requiring it can get to it .. look for the path in the script.

#-=-=-=-=-Includes-=-=-=-=-
Include "include\info_inc"
#-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

hope this helps

Hmmmmm, strangely enough, I can only get this script to work in TWX v2.03...

I use most of his scripts in 2.05. Just open the files and go down to the bottom and fix the path to reflect where you have them. Might be a few triggers that need adjusted but since most were released in ts format should be no problem.

Thanks T, I'll give that a shot.

Hello Vid,
I know i'm probably doing this wrong but i have to begin somewhere, lol. This file for some reason did NOT have a "SupGinclude"... so I searched my hard drive (I'm running Win7 Ultimate) and found a "SupGinclude" and put it in the file. It did however, have a separate "include" file.... so I put EP's "info_inc" in there and did the input you suggested. So now it looks like this........

include "supginclude\info_inc"
include "supginclude\phaggle_inc"
include "supginclude\nearfig_inc"
include "supginclude\planet_inc"
include "supginclude\signature_inc"
include "supginclude\port_inc"
include "include\info_inc"

Has to be wrong someway, because it still doesn't work... its saying "Incorrect version" when using TWX 2.05, so maybe you scripters can tell me what i'm doing wrong. However, it DOES work in TWX 2.03... unchanged of course.

Off the top of my head .. not seeing your script .. only the list of includes that go inside of a script ..

If this is the whole script .. then that would be the problem .. you need something besides just the includes in a file to be a script ...

and do not forget to have a Halt or some other command to prevent the script from flowing into the include list.

eg.

GoSub :lookhere
Echo "**" ANSI_10 "Done that*"
Halt
:lookhere
Echo "**" ANSI_14 "Done this*"
Return
include "include\info_inc"

The one that looks most out of place and may be the cause :
include "supginclude\signature_inc"

This one has the authorize routeen and version check in it if I recall correctly.

Plus you have 2 of the same includes .. for the most part :
include "supginclude\info_inc" <-- SupG's include
include "include\info_inc" <-- EP's version of SupG's include

Hope this helps.
