Doom3world

when I try something like this within a gameLocal function (after a map has been loaded):

idStr thisMapName = mapFileName;

the string will copy just fine, presumably using the overloaded = operator for idStr, but the game will crash when I close doom3.

however, if I do this in it's stead:

idStr thisMapName = mapFileName.Left( mapFileName.Length() );

it works and doesnt crash the game.


any ideas why this might be happening?

not sure, but I've been messing around with the parser, and they use 'filename' as the name of the currently loaded file, not 'mapFileName', for the scripts. so, maybe try using that instead?
