It's probably something with your comp, or the FBM itself. Could you be any less helpful?

Re: The FBM CB 4200 - Now deployable in the field! Lua in cc currently causes memory leaks to happen.
This is dan's fault, but that's just cause he's the one that made this awesome game.

Re: The FBM CB 4200 - Now deployable in the field! There should be a way to manually dump the garbage in the Lua script. This should solve all the crashing problems.
Edit: And there is, in the list of Lua functions. Granted, this was made by a developer, so he should know about it. But how would you implement it without creating further complications? (I.e. having certain functions not occurring.)
Second Edit: I just tested this theory out. By adding _G.collectgarbage = true; Before the last "end" on the "Computer" lua script, I have no lag. It does not crash. I can do whatever function i want. It is perfect =)

EDIT: Yup, the end of the Update(self) function. And since adding it, I have not crashed once, and have not experienced any more lag than CC normally throws. Mind you, this may just be coincidence, but this seems legit.

Re: The FBM CB 4200 - Now deployable in the field! Mind you, this is not a perfect fix, cortex command WILL crash if you overload it with too many functions (I.e. using "grow" several times in quick succession has always made me crash). However, expanding on this garbage collect function further could fix more issues. I'll be playing around with _G.collectgarbage = true; placement for a while until TheLastBanana decides to post about it. Hope this adds to the "fun" factor of this mod!

Re: The FBM CB 4200 - Now deployable in the field! Never messed with Lua language, does it look like: Code: [tab][tab]end
[tab]end
_G.collectgarbage = true
end (psp's don't tab)

function Destroy(self) And don't forget your semicolon ";" at the end of "true"

Re: The FBM CB 4200 - Now deployable in the field! Heh, I wasn't off at all. But I get it now, that whole string refers to update(self). The indexing is a bit like INI coding, thanks for that Koolidor. I think I'll try and pick up some basic Lua language so I can help myself out later.

Re: The FBM CB 4200 - Now deployable in the field! Kalidor, I seriously cannot believe that solved it. That's something that should be included in the game by default to run every x number of frames (oddly, it seems to, but at a 2-minute mark or something). Adding it in right now, and I'll go write this up in the Lua Scripting section.
The FBM now collects garbage every 10 seconds, so it should keep it from lagging too much.
