Dropdowns not working correctly #9

Closed Tromador closed 6 years ago

Tromador commented 6 years ago

The system list no longer appears in either source or destination drop downs.

Commodity list no longer appears in the commodity drop down.

"C" Button apparently not working (though may well be affected by the above).

There seems to be a significant delay in populating these drop down lists if there are a large number of Net Log files to parse especially the first time. I have a trap elsewhere in the code that only checks the net log files that appear after the latest entry in the database and I'll try to do the same thing once I find out where the delay is in the code. Obviously, if you are running TDH2 for the first time, the delay is inevitable.

How long was TDH2 running before you checked?

Tromador commented 6 years ago

As of now, it's been running for several hours and still no populated dropdowns. See also forum, I'm not the only one reporting this.

How very strange. I'l look into it but until I can replicate the problem I'll just be guessing.

Tromador commented 6 years ago

Wild stab in the dark:

You still have an install in the old style location (appdata/local/....etc) The code still has some legacy stuff which is specific to that and needs converting to use either/or the new location in a subfolder of the launcher, so it's not getting info from somewhere.

That said, I'm moderately convinced it worked a couple of versions ago, before you fixed the errors on startup.

Found work around. It's a TD problem.
