I'm only doing this because it's one of the bigger scripts and I keep hearing that that is where some long standing bugs are.

This going to be pretty time consuming, and I'm sure I'll need multiple people to look it over.

Great!
so, we only can decompile the original script, not DLC?
it's sad, because the original works pretty fine...

I'm sorry that I can't help you right now
as soon as I will have free time, I'll try to help

No debug script for the dlcs. The debug scripts make things vastly easier because of line numbers and locals. We can go back in and make the DLC changes after we get the retail version knocked out.

Edit:
I can't imagine this is working the way it should...
WatchDog.AddChickenChaserCallBack._Name = "WatchDog_WatchDog.AddChickenChaserCallBack"

What... the... fuck!?

If I'm reading this right, they're trying to use a variable to list a function, and said variable is longer than the original function!

If I'm not reading this right, then it appears to be some highly redundant code. Either way, what drugs were they on?


To whomever designed the map of Mistpeak Valley to look so much more simple than the actual level is: May the Archangel Michael descend from the heavens and plant his boot squarely between your legs for your asshattery.

Ya. There's some crazy things going on.
It looks like this is meant to be overriding the base function with a replacement function.

Any function that gets defined in WatchDog gets re-tagged as WatchDog_function, replacing the normal function that runs.
		name = "WatchDog_" .. name
		watch_dog._Name = name


That AddChickenChaserCallBack sticks out because if it was the same as the others it should have been WatchDog_AddChickenChaserCallBack.
Obviously I haven't done all the functions yet. I just have them listed out.
