yeah i thought i would have to free the memory allocated for the original aiplayers.cfg

that if(target) fixed the crashing issue but I now I realise im also getting target coordinates from the ai cycle too so any test I was going to do will fail as it'll be tested against itself :( -------------- edit ------------- actually it might work as the difference between the ai and itself will...

hi MusicMeg21

hmmmmmmmm

thanks ever so much for that code, much nicer working perfectly

this is exactly what I was trying to do for 4 days but never got it to work

I think I hate css scripting even more than bash scripting now

ah thanks for the reply, I just added a new button and got that horrible result

gonna add your changes now

thanks so much
