This error:Unable to determine overload to use: Method Maze.new(Local nMaze:String,Local delim:String) or Method Maze.new(Local mw:Int,Local mh:Int,Local sp:Int[],Local ep:Int[]) from this code: [monkeycode] Local m1:Maze = New Maze(6, 5) [/monkeycode] New() method signatures are: [monkeycode] Method New(nMaze:String, delim:String = "~n") ' maze in string with a row delimiter (defaults to newline) Method New(mSeed:Int = Seed) Method New(mw:Int, mh:Int, sp:Int[] =[1, 1], ep:Int[] =[0, 0]) [/monkeycode] There shouldn't be any confusion, should there be? |

| Hi, When searching for matching function signatures, Monkey currently treats any match that needs to make use of default param values as 'inexact'. This doesn't look right to me though - the above call should really match with the last ctor. It's actually a simple change to the translator code to fix this, I'm just worried there's a reason I did it in the first place that I've forgotten about! Will do some more testing, but in the meantime splitting the last ctor into 2 should fix it. |

| Perhaps now you've learned to always comment your code... heheh By splitting, you mean have this: [monkeycode] Method New(mw:Int, mh:Int) Method New(mw:Int, mh:Int, sp:Int[] =[1, 1], ep:Int[] =[0, 0]) [/monkeycode] If so, can I call the second New() from the first New(), so I don't have to duplicate the code? |

| no but you can call a construct method that shares the same code in new. |
