Hi,
there is something wrong with the Mortal Coil Game.
I get:
Warning: strlen() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/hacker_apache/html/hacker/html/util/gamebase.php on line 87
invalid looking level

It's not down, it just got harder!
Good luck finding a path on completely blocked board.

Board creation seems to be broken. I end up with an empty board description.
The Flash GUI considers this to be a completely blocked board (see trez0rs remark).

This happens even when i play anonymous after cleaning out all the cookies.

is there any plan to fix this soon? because I have a new algorithm that looks promising, and I woul'd like to run it on new levels. It was a lot of work, so please bring it back online.

Still doesn't work for me...

Would be nice to see this fixed soon.

Level 15 (the one where I left off) was working for me just now, but after I had solved it, I received the same error as the others.

that's exactly what happened to me, I could play one level, after that it was broken.

Sometimes I get

Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/hacker_apache/html/hacker/html/coil/coil.php on line 98
no valid levels for 3, 3

But even without the error it never works.

CodeX · Post by **CodeX** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 5:27 pm

The mysql_num_rows problem is caused by doing something like

Code: Select all

mysql_num_rows($conn);

instead of

Code: Select all

mysql_num_rows();

I guess it has something to do with a PHP update. I encountered this problem myself when getting back into PHP+MySQL recently.

I asked adum via e-mail and he told me that there is a database corruption problem, and that he is looking for a backup.
