Makeobj extended Mystery - MatthewForrester/simutrans-extended GitHub Wiki

Ranran's explanation

Ideas to try

  • Look at slashes - do the .dat files have Unix-style slashes and does it matter?
    • There are no filesystem slashes in the .dat files (the .png files are in the same directory), so that's not the issue.
  • Test makeobj-ex (B-B, GitHub, and 22.04-self-compiled) versions on the 1750 china shop in Ubuntu 20.04 (Paul)
  • Test makeobj-ex (B-B, GitHub, and 22.04-self-compiled) versions on the 1750 china shop in Ubuntu 18.04 (Lazarus)
  • Test makeobj-extended.exe (B-B and GitHub) versions on the 1750 china shop in Windows (MXS)
  • Try creating an Extended theme using a Standard makeobj (Ranran said this is possible)
  • Look makeobj-ex dependencies using ldd to see whether there's anything surprising and/or missing and/or different between versions
  • Compile a debug build of makeobj-ex and run it step-by-step in the VSC/GDB debugger until I get to the first error message
