Illegal exception trying to draw sprite (SOLVED)

[Quintaros]

While experimenting with the rotate sprite function I got the following error message:

An exception 0xC0000005 occured in ACWIN.EXE at EIP = 0x0043B598 ; program pointer is -42, ACI version 2.71.894, gtags (1,130)

(...)

in Global script (line 76)

The code from this part of the script is:

Code: ags

  DynamicSprite *Plane=DynamicSprite.CreateFromExistingSprite(1);
  Plane.Rotate(angle(0,1));
  RawDrawImage(vectors[0].x, vectors[0].y, Plane.Graphic); // line 76
  Plane.Delete();

If anybody could shed some light on the problem it would be greatly apreciated.  It's been quite a while since I've done any scripting so it may be a pretty obvious problem.

Hmmm, just wild guess would it be possible that either of vectors[0].x or vectors[0].y be a positive or negative number having VERY large magnitude?

What function is that script in? It wouldn't happen to be called from game_start, would it?

If so, remember that no room is loaded when game_start is run, and therefore there is no room background for RawDrawImage to draw onto.

It is called from game start.  Thanks for the explanation.
