Why has Crafty this bug for a long time ? I guess that hyatt did an error and that other people did not check it. I agree that the bug may be not obvious for the programmer but in most cases different programmers do not do exactly the same mistake(they can do different mistakes and have different bugs) > >>It seems that in this case the programmer thought that he understands everything >>but did not understand everything. >I think next time I will ask you if I had some problems with my code :-) >Why didn´t you find this bug ? > >Kai I guess that the reason is that I did not try to understand most of the crafty's code. The point is not personal attack against you but that I do not like the fact that people copy things from crafty and call it their program. I understand that in this case probably the part copied from crafty is very small but I think that copying nothing is better. You may have more bugs but I believe that you will learn more about programming by copying nothing. I apologize if I am wrong and you did the same mistake independently not because of copying. Uri
