reachspecs

  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

skyrocketing reachspecs are bad. if you right click on one, 'select all pathnodes' then select 'send' -> 'to last', then rebuild, it gets cleaned down to the lowest number (meaning there is no garbage reachspecs)

why do the reachspecs number increase even if you don't change anything, is this the same question he asked? to clarify, mine don't skyrocket, just increase about 100 or so every time

It's some kind of adding up error in UnrealEd. OMG a bug in UnrealEd? What is the world coming to ;)

It is a bug in UED. For some reason (that is very comon expression among coders who don't know the actual reason) UED does not clean up the mess after building the pathing. Doing this oreder->last thing forces UED to make a complete cleanup.

And to the guys who develop this neat proggie:
If You have been reading this forum, You should say "Thank You" for us who do the hardest part of software development - testing.

just because testing is the worst part doesn't mean the rest is a cakewalk, believe you me...i'm majoring in software & hardware...the rest sucks ALMOST as much as the testing!

Testing hard - how come ?

Anyone can crash a program - crashing and then telling how You did it and being able to repeat it - that is what I would call the hard part.

And I really hope the software developers of UED are reading this forum as I would not be too surprised if they use the same (and only) source code for the U2 editor as well.

And LAff, You're right, testing SUCKS. It's mostly boring, repetitive and far from creative. And after You have passed a program through a 180 hour test period, the boss comes and drops a phone book on the keyboard - boom goes the program. (seen this happen - called it a "dictionary" test).
