====3. Check tree primitive blocked completion====
 +
The cause of this error is attempting to execute code which require 'blocking' to perform (eg. animations, blocking dialog boxes ect) in immediate! mode (bypassing action queue).
 +
To avoid this - make sure to push such action's to action queue instead.
 +
Common reason for seeing this is a BHAV which issues a [[0x0024|dialog]] but has the "immediately" box checked in the [[TTAB]]. Also seen for [[0x001C|Run Tree by Name]] – when using "Run in x stack" – try with "Push in x stack" to avoid error. Also seen for calls to [[0x0000|Sleep]].

====4. '''Transition to Node That Does Not Exist'''====
 
This occurs when a true or false branch of a BHAV node is non-existent.  To fix this, change the node to refer to an existing node, or create the non-existing one.

This occurs when a node in a BHAV is run more than 10,000 times.  It often occurs when a node is linked to itself, or in ''Set To Next searches'' that are too broad(resulting in more than 10,000 items).  It can be fixed by using concise searches, and by making sure that no nodes make loops that will cause them to be run 10,000 times.

−
8. '''Undefined Transition'''
+
At other times this error will occur even if there is no mistake in the coding, but simply because an object is running a long and complex section of code without giving the game time to service other functions. In this case the insertion of an [[Idle]] at some point in the code prior to where the error typically occurs will prevent the "Too many interations" error. The [[Idle]] call often only requires "1" tick as its parameter.

This occurs when a node's true, or false branch lead it to error (a value of 0xFFFC), rather than another line, or ending the BHAV as true(0xFFFD) or false(0xFFFE). The intentional insertion of error(0xFFFC) tests during code development is a useful means of debugging, but ideally these should be removed from production code in favour of either silent error handling routines or the provision of user friendly error messages.

[edit] Object Errors

[edit] Description:

An object error, more commonly known as the "jump bug"(when not in debug mode, a sim resets when encountering an error, thus "jumping"), occurs usually when there are problems with a behaviour. Some object errors however, are harmless and would go un-noticed if you weren't in debug mode. Debug mode will inform the user that an error has occurred and log a stack trace. These logs are vital to solving bugs in both behaviour mods, and problems with the original game.

[edit] Obtaining an error log:

It is common when you have a problem with a behaviour Mod that the creator will request an Object Error log. Basically you will run your game in debug mode(often falsely referred to as boolpropping), this will tell your game to log errors when they occur.

  1. Run The Sims 2
  2. Load a lot where you can recreate the problem
  3. Press the key sequence Control+Shift+C
  4. Enter the command "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true"
  5. Recreate the problem, until you get a popup telling you that an error has occurred.
  6. A file named something similar to this ObjectError_N001_t23001.txt should appear in your logs folder(My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Logs\")

[edit] 3. Check tree primitive blocked completion

The cause of this error is attempting to execute code which require 'blocking' to perform (eg. animations, blocking dialog boxes ect) in immediate! mode (bypassing action queue). To avoid this - make sure to push such action's to action queue instead. Common reason for seeing this is a BHAV which issues a dialog but has the "immediately" box checked in the TTAB. Also seen for Run Tree by Name – when using "Run in x stack" – try with "Push in x stack" to avoid error. Also seen for calls to Sleep.

[edit] 4. Transition to Node That Does Not Exist

This occurs when a true or false branch of a BHAV node is non-existent. To fix this, change the node to refer to an existing node, or create the non-existing one.

[edit] 7. Too many iterations

This occurs when a node in a BHAV is run more than 10,000 times. It often occurs when a node is linked to itself, or in Set To Next that are too broad(resulting in more than 10,000 items), or if you zero out the variable you using in Set To Next prior to each call (resulting in the same item being found 10,000 times). In this case the error can be fixed by using concise searches, and by making sure that no nodes make loops that will cause them to be run 10,000 times.

At other times this error will occur even if there is no mistake in the coding, but simply because an object is running a long and complex section of code without giving the game time to service other functions. In this case the insertion of an Idle at some point in the code prior to where the error typically occurs will prevent the "Too many interations" error. The Idle call often only requires "1" tick as its parameter.

[edit] 8. Undefined Transition

This occurs when a node's true, or false branch lead it to error (a value of 0xFFFC), rather than another line, or ending the BHAV as true(0xFFFD) or false(0xFFFE). The intentional insertion of error(0xFFFC) tests during code development is a useful means of debugging, but ideally these should be removed from production code in favour of either silent error handling routines or the provision of user friendly error messages.

[edit] 48. Inventory token propert index out of range

The property of the inventory token you are referring to does not exist

[edit] 49 Inventory token index out of range

The Inventory token that you refer to does not exist.

[edit] 56. Bad Object Array

If you see this error, the likelihood is that you have not allocated space for the array you are trying to use. Space must be allocated in the OBJD - Data Space.

[edit] 63. IK target animation cannot find bone on self

This means that an animation played by the node that caused the error requires a specific cObjectGraphNode name to be defined in the CRES of the My Object.

[edit] 64. IK target animation cannot find bone on other object

This means that an animation played by the node that caused the error requires a specific cObjectGraphNode name to be defined in the CRES of the Stack Object.

[edit] 65. IK target animation requires 3D model on other object

This means the stack object is not defined as animateable, or 3D in 0x0063 of its OBJD

[edit] 66. IK target animation requires other object

This means that the requested animation requires a target object that is not present in the Stack Object

[edit] 73. Hit Break Point Primitive

This error occurs any time that the primitive 0x000F is called by a BHAV.

[edit] 99. 3D object is not animatable

This means that an animation was requested by this node to be played, but the object is not defined as animatable. This must be set in OBJD - Mesh & Graphics in "3D Object Type" (0x0063).

[edit] 100. Local out of range

This occurs when a Local Variable is either defined, or called when it has not been allocated by the header of the BHAV.

[edit] 102. Invalid constant

Check that a referred to BCON resource is present.

[edit] 108. Slot number out of range

This means that there is no entry in the SLOT of the value requested in that node.

[edit] 109.Motive number out of range or not an acceptable value

The motive that you refer to does not exist.

[edit] 112. Could not find object reference

Pretty much says it all. An object reference provided is probably not set.

[edit] 113. Reference to tree table entry that does not exist

When a node refers to a tree table entry that is not defined in the object. This is common(maybe exclusive) with Primitive 0x000D, Push Interaction

[edit] 114. No stack object present when required

This error occurs when a Primitive called in the node expects a Stack Object to be defined, and either there has been none defined, or it has been assigned to 0.

[edit] 116. Expression attempting to write in a read-only area

When an expression attempts to change a read-only value, such as "Time of Day". Most of the Global From Simulation data types are read-only.

[edit] 118.Bad gosub tree number

When you have a BHAV in a format for an EP you don't have.

[edit] 120.Reference to stack object out of range

Stack object data owner has a range of 0x0

[edit] 122.Flag reference is out of range

The flag you refer to is not defined.

[edit] 127.Stack Number out of range

Your parameter is out of the range defined in the BHAV's header(arg count).

[edit] 129. Attribute Number out of range

If you see this error, the likelihood is that you have not allocated space for the number of attributes you are trying to use. Space must be allocated in the OBJD - Data Space. Eight attributes are preallocated by default, but if you need a bigger number than this, you will need to explicity define the quantity you require.

[edit] 130. Illegal primitive code

Occurs when a non-existent Primitive is attempted to be called; Primitives being defined as an OpCode between 0x0000, and 0x00FF

[edit] 133. Temporary reference out of range

One possible cause of this error is mistakenly using "Temp [Temp]" instead of "Temp".

[edit] 136. Divide by zero

Dividing by zero in an expression in SimAntics and will result in an error just like everywhere else.
