Author Topic: ERROR: Container::castRay() - invalid start/end! points  (Read 3031 times)

I got this error in my console and it made BL crash (well i couldnt see the screen and it went back and forth from Responding to not responding) any idea what this is? The message repeated several times then it would go away, then it would start again.

No clue but this should be in the help forum, for the simple fact that Badspot actually goes there.


opps sorry bout that.

thats the weird thing. Everything was going along great then it was like out of nowhere i got that error. But here it is.

Right from where he connected (i dont think he did anything btw) thats where it started to mess up.

BTW i deleted the IP's for security reasons. You can find a lot of things with Ip's.

Have you updated your Blockland?


I've been getting this error too, but it was when I was a client and not the server.

It only happened for me though, when I landed on the Magic Carpets while jetting at a weird angle, once I hit them they disappeared.

Yea see it was my server.

Any new add-ons or just since v7?

There are two things that I always do when I can't fix something.

1. Restart computer
2. Reinstall
3. Ask for help

I've gotten a few errors with Blockland, repeatedly, but they usually went away with a restart/reinstallation.

Detection of this error is new in v7.  Previously, the game would just get stuck in an infinite loop when this happened.  Since it's a debugging message, it will be removed for v8.

I remember Spation's RPG crashing when someone hit the floor wrong with a Helicopter - no errors, v1.03.

In my server, it too crashed once when I used a similar helicopter and someone hit a wall - A Container::castRay error.

Just found my server spitting out that error over and over,any clues?

It's caused by invalid transform data on flying vehicles.  The bug has always been there, just the detection of it is new. 

ok,thanks,i have unchecked anything that flys on my server untill i hear the problem is fixed.
