Hi, I have the following issue with loading world.

I start loading world like this:

Now BackgroundLoader function:


Issue: it never returns false.
Log shows this:
1.000
0.000
0.000
0.000

But when I use Dbl instead of Flt, then it shows the following result:
0.999997556
0.000000000
0.000000000
0.000000000

What could cause this issue?
The world is empty. It is a new created one with imported heightmap.

it never returns false because this is the initiator of the bg function, you need an update to check for constant updateprogress.

take a look at the tuto again, it will make sense.

you need a check on the main update to do something like this

if(BL.update())return true;

Im not sure where I found it. But I remember reading that the function Game::World.updateProgress() should return 1 when Game::World.update is fully loaded.
But in this case, it never returns 1 but 0.999997556.

yes it does, where do you call this function shown up here ?

Bool CLoadingScene::BackgroundLoader(Thread& thread) ?

only once ? or in a update loop ?

The function CLoadingScene::BackgroundLoader is run by the a thread until false is returned.

As you see I have the following code

Flt fProgress = Game::World.updateProgress();
if (fProgress >= 1.0f)
return false; // return false, because we no longer need the thread

but it never returns false because the fProgress value is something like 0.999

Please check this tutorial:

Yes, I did that.
But there seems to be an issue with Game::World.updateProgress() not returning 1.f but only 0.999f

It's meant to be used only for drawing progress bar, please check tutorial, it works differently than your code.

Oh, I see.
Thanks.
