So I have a text object named mod_objects and another one named mod_FileFormats they are both defined before the function and properly filled with content. Now I'll post the bit of code that results in a E1513 crash: Code: function modSys_SortObjects() { var i; // cycle through the whole Mod Objects string array i = 0; while(i < nro_ModObjects) { // is it a model (fleet) file? if(str_stri(mod_objects.string[i],mod_FileFormats.string[0])) { str_cpy(mod_fleets.string[counter_fleets],mod_objects.string[i]); counter_fleets += 1; } (...) This is the begining of a function (obviously) and it crashes at the if(str_stri ...) line I tried: - starting with 1 as id for the string elements => still crashing - using a character sequenz in the str_stri at second place, e.g. ".mdl" and "mdl", both => crash any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks in advance! edit: counter_fleets is a previously defined variable starting with zero aswell.

It is indeed necessary to copy the content of the text object to a string. But only the first one. str_stri(string1,string2) string1 needs to be a string, while string2 can be an element of a text object. str_stri(object_tmp,format.string[i]) is thus a valid operation which I can use now. Thanks again! Last edited by Xarthor; 10/12/08 11:07.
