[Fixed for V0.46] Deleting monster that's used in a hint

I just experienced something like this. I was adding location hints, and after a minute of consideration I cancelled. At this point all of the fields were empty, I had only pressed 'select location' to decide on the, umm, center point of the hint. Crashed. And after restarting RTC ED and loading my dungeon, all the location hints were gone. Monster hints were left untouched.

However, looking at the crash dump, this may not be the (only) reason for the crash; I think I also deleted a cloned monster for which I had created a monster hint. Still, just prior to the crash, I had successfully created another location hint.

Code: Select all

RTC Editor (V0.45) Diagnostic file - Tue May 01 11:46:37 2007



Error:

  an access violation exception.



Stack Dump:

  RTCModule.SMTGetSafeObjectNo(string "MONSTER_MUMMY", int 1096);

  RTCModule.SMTHintOracleCreatures(pointer 0x00546DC8);

  RTCModule.SaveModuleText(string "Z:\\home\\jannevie\\RTC045\\Modules\\bjq\\bjq3.txt", int 1, pointer 0x7E6F6C18);

  RTCEditView.SaveFile();

  RTCEditView.OnFileSave();

  RTCEditApp.WinMain();
Perhaps I should note that being a Linux-user, I run RTC through Wine.

The problem is soley down to deleting the cloned monster that is used in a hint. I've changed the thread title accordingly and fixed the problem for V0.46.
