Hi all-
I loved Civ II and wanted this game big time, so for a late x-mas present my bro gave it to me.
I had already checked out this site and d/l the patch, before even having the game. Installed the game and then the patch, before even playing.
I am still learning this one so I am in easy setting.
Every time I save the game, and go back to playing I get an error:
Slic Error
In object CheckForUnit, Function_GetUnit_FromArmy: Value Out of Bounds.
I checked the board to see if anybody had this issue and the closest I could find was the one about shutting down CTP2 after each save (if I want to keep playing). I keep doing that, but if I save the game and wish to contuine, I get this pop up message, about 3 times, whenever I want to move one of my guys. I can close the message, but each time I move, it comes up agian and again.
Any help would be appreciated.

Try playing a different level. (Medium)I read somewhere (cant remember where) playing on the easiest settings LEADS players into very bad habits. |

I'm getting the exact same error, very annoying - especially since I'm about 1000+ years into the game

Could any of you guys who have these problems open the file tut2_func.slc (in the folder ctp2_data\default\gamedata) in a text editor (NotePad or WordPad or MS Word or whatever) and perform a search on the text CheckForUnit? You should find 1 entry. If you post that line and the 20 or so lines below that here, I can see if your version of that file is in any way different from mine. I've never had those problems and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the code when I look at it, so maybe my version of that file is different in some way. Once I have the right code, it should be fairly simple to fix the problem. (BTW, playing on a higher difficulty level should fix the problems as well) |

Hi!
I'm having the same problem.
I would really appreciate som help on this, so here you go Locutus!int_f CheckForUnit(army_t tmpArmy, unit_t chkUnit)
{
unit_t tmpUnit;
int_t i;
int_t verifyUnit;
verifyUnit = 0; for(i = 0; i < tmpArmy.size; i = i + 1) {
if(GetUnitFromArmy(tmpArmy, i, tmpUnit)) {
if(tmpUnit == chkUnit) {
verifyUnit = 1;
return verifyUnit;
} else {
verifyUnit = 0;
}
}
}
return verifyUnit;
} //check to see if a given unit is in a city |

Seems to be ok. I recently discovered one other thing though: Try setting DebugSLIC to No in userprofile.txt. |
