I was afraid this would happen - the Penguin is too busy playing in Hundred Acre Wood.

While fixing the nightly update mechanism for Windows and Linux,
I noticed that the Mac OS X nightly page automated mechanism is broken as of 14/Sep.
This is not in the control of terrastorage server scripts, so I can't even try to fix it.
Until this case is addressed I will be manually producing the Mac OS X nightly updates on a friend's Mac.
This will inevitably result in Mac OS X nightly updates lagging behind Windows and Linux nightly updates.

I blame Svengali - calling you a hero was tempting fate (otherwise known as O'Toole).

The nightly seems to up again though - muchas gracias (if that is the case).

Just powered off the server and switched it back on. (brutal, I know, but there was no time for foreplay)
Root-cause of yesterday's freezing is yet to be found... and my Oolite "to do" list keeps growing.

Somehow I feel the temptation to send Grover now... :twisted:

Is 'interstellar rescue' working okay?

I was dragged out of witchspace a couple of times last night, and it didn't do its thing - just got slowly fragged, no evasion, nothing.

Can I get the previous nightly (or two) anywhere?

Not sure. I can build a 32-bit exe of the previous revision for you and send it over if you want. That's the best I can do at this moment and can only happen later tonight.

Thanks... but probably not needed, as my problem seems to be affecting only one particular save.

That's the only drawback with the auto-updater - before, with manual download/install, I'd have a couple of previous .exes to roll back to.

Hi Cody. Have you tried that particular save with a fresh trunk install, to see if the issue persists?

EDIT: Don't forget to start with a clean cache (Shift button pressed)
