Error loading control - clean arma2oa.RPT

[d3nn16 3]

Hi,

I have a mission where player can open a custom made dialog. But every time it is opened I have the following 2 errors showing up in the arma2oa.RPT file :

Error loading control C:\Users\boson\Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\eRazer\mpmissions\ctfs_template_[z]_v1-0.Desert_E\description.ext/OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS/Controls/GER_1_CGP/
Error loading control C:\Users\boson\Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\eRazer\mpmissions\ctfs_template_[z]_v1-0.Desert_E\description.ext/OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS/Controls/GEN_0_CGP/

I am trying to fix all my mission scripts to remove any errors from the log file but I have no idea for this error.

Here is how I define the dialog controls that are responsible for the errors (taking GEN_0_CGP control as example) :

class OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS
{
idd = _IDD_OPTIONS_;
movingEnable = true;
onLoad = "uiNamespace setVariable ['OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS', (_this select 0)]";

class  ControlsBackground
{
	...
};

class Controls
{
	...
	#include "modules\gen.ext"
	...
};
};

modules\gen.ext file:

class GEN_0_CGP : OPT_TEMPL_CGP
{
idc = _IDC_GEN_0_CGP_;
x = _BODY_X_;
y = _BODY_Y_ + 2 * _H_;
w = _BODY_W_;
h = 19 * _H_ - _DH_;

class Controls
{
	...
};
};

OPT_TEMPL_CGP control:

class OPT_TEMPL_CGP : TEMPL_CGP
{
style = _ST_HUD_BACKGROUND_ + _ST_MULTI_;
x = 0;
y = 0;
w = 1;
h = 1;

colorBackground[] = {_COL_BG_};
shadow = false;

class VScrollbar {
	color[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
	width = 0.021;
	autoScrollSpeed = -1;
	autoScrollDelay = 5;
	autoScrollRewind = 0;
	shadow = false;
};

class HScrollbar {
	color[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
	height = 0.028;
	shadow = false;
};

class ScrollBar {
	color[] = {0, 1, 0, 0.6};
	colorActive[] = {1, 0, 0, 1};
	colorDisabled[] = {0, 0, 1, 0.3};
	thumb = "\ca\ui\data\igui_scrollbar_thumb_ca.paa";
	arrowFull = "\ca\ui\data\igui_arrow_top_active_ca.paa";
	arrowEmpty = "\ca\ui\data\igui_arrow_top_ca.paa";
	border = "\ca\ui\data\igui_border_scroll_ca.paa";
	shadow = false;
};

class Controls {};
};

TEMPL_CGP control:

class TEMPL_CGP
{
idc = -1;
type = _CT_CONTROLS_GROUP_;
style = _ST_MULTI_;
x = 0;
y = 0;
w = 1;
h = 1;

shadow = false;

class VScrollbar {
	color[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
	width = 0.021;
	autoScrollSpeed = -1;
	autoScrollDelay = 5;
	autoScrollRewind = 0;
	shadow = false;
};

class HScrollbar {
	color[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
	height = 0.028;
	shadow = false;
};

class ScrollBar {
	color[] = {1, 1, 1, 0.6};
	colorActive[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
	colorDisabled[] = {1, 1, 1, 0.3};
	thumb = "\ca\ui\data\ui_scrollbar_thumb_ca.paa";
	arrowFull = "\ca\ui\data\ui_arrow_top_active_ca.paa";
	arrowEmpty = "\ca\ui\data\ui_arrow_top_ca.paa";
	border = "\ca\ui\data\ui_border_scroll_ca.paa";
	shadow = false;
};

class Controls {};
};

where is your controls array definition in the OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS dialog?

like

controls[] = {"GEN_0_CGP","GEN_1_CGP"};

[d3nn16 3]

I am not using any controls array definition. Instead I am defining the "class Controls" and I put all controls inside.

[.kju 3240]

The classes of course too. You need both AFAIK.

Did you try to define the controls array?

[d3nn16 3]

I did a quick try by just adding controls[] = {"GEN_0_CGP","GEN_1_CGP"}; to the OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS class and I have the following error :

ErrorMessage: File C:\Users\boson\Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\eRazer\MPMissions\ctfs_template_[z]_v1-0.Desert_E\opt_options\description.ext, line 164: /OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS.Controls: Member already defined.

Also it will take me too much time to switch from using the Controls class to using the controls array because my OPT_DIAG_OPTIONS class (and more specifically the Controls class inside it) uses hundreds of controls (I am using a system where I hide/display controls depending on the selection in a drop-down list).

I am getting 0 errors in my log file except those concerning control groups. This seems like a specific error to control groups. All the other controls are working fine and no errors generated in the log file.

Any ideas ? Can you reproduce the same issue ?
