Cantr II Discussion Forum

I built the Bike Frame, Built the two wheels, then assembled the bike. I hopped on to take it for a test drive, but there was no engine.

I selected the "Build or Manufacture Something" button.
I clicked the Engine button.
I selected Motorcycle Engine.
I read the building information.

I then clicked the "select this object to build" arrow button and got this message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: eplode() in /home/cantr/public_html/action.build.inc.php on line 145

I backed out of it and checked activities and my request was not processed.

Myself and Anthony have taken a look at all the entries and can find no problems with them so we will have to wait and see if Thomas or Jos can find the problem.

Would this be a typo of "explode"?
Context in that script: $rules = eplode (';', $loc_objecttype_info->rules);

I copy/pasted the error, so the message in my post is exactly as it appeared on the screen.

I think June was commenting that it was spelt wrong in the code itself, not what your post said.

$rules = eplode (';', $loc_objecttype_info->rules);

But I don't think it is. Because, there are three other engines. Do they use the same code? So then, why don't they cause an error?

Junesun's analysis pointed right to the problem. I have fixed it now.

The explanation for Anthony's objection is, that it is a relatively recent change to use explode instead of preg_split, because it's a little less expensive. The other 3 engines have probably been built before that.

Anyway, it should be possible to build that engine now.

All is good now and soon the first biker gang will be roaming Cantr.
