Quick post to let you guys know that the PTR server is back online. Thank you for your patience, sorry for the downtime (we had to do maintenance).

Sold by PTR Components vendor in Petear sector (gate in Saturn). Will also add to their starter kit. Thanks.

TS should have ammo comps in vault. Alternatively, or if you run out, check out the PTR sector (gate is in Saturn) and follow the navs up to the marketplace. The PTR Components space vendor will sell you some of the hard-to-come-by components (like the Brimstone stuff) and you can get the rest from normal vendors.

Oops. Build ammo was missing from the PTR at first so when I re-added it I forgot to add a command for players to go back and max it on their existing TS. Use /ptrenableskills to max it for now (assuming I left it in, I'll check)

Same problem as in your last report. Pushed another proxy update for this. Thanks.

What crashed, the proxy or the client? Proxy logs indicate sudden stop of both.

Same bug as was present in Zarg's last log. Proxy update pushed a few hours ago adds extra logging for this. Thanks.

April 11th - 12:45 AM EST Updated proxy to add extra logging around code which triggered an error in a player's logs. April 11th - 5:00 AM EST Updated proxy to rework some code and remove logging for issues which are now resolved. April 11th - 3:30 PM EST Fixed guild actions (promote, demote, kick). Added a new PTR-only sector which contains a few space vendors for commonly needed items on the PTR. You can find the gate to this sector in Saturn.

Proxy log indicates that one of the networking threads deadlocked. Looking back through this code, I don't see how it could have deadlocked so I added extra logging to all of the relevant code to try and figure out what happened. This is the first time that this has shown up in a log so I'm quite clueless without it happening again with extra logging. Thanks.

It looks like really bad timing with the login server restarting itself right as your client went to perform the sector handoff/login. This is something I will be improving on tonight. Thanks.

April 10th - 11:40 PM EST Updated server to include max Chavez, Bogeril, and V'rix faction in /ptrsetupcharacter and /ptrfaction.

Those shortcut slots are handled entirely client side but I'll throw a debugger on it and see if I can patch out the bug through a memory write. Thanks.

Check out the following post for more information on how to get in. Thanks!

What a cute puppy. Hopefully we can help Flummadiddle (What an interesting name) get some wheels.

According to your log and a log from another player, the server stopped sending the proxy data at the exact same second for both of you, so I'm fairly certain this is the point when the server went down due to the Self Destruct bug last night. Thanks.

Crash tracked down to a bug in Self Destruct. Bug is fixed and server is booting (up in 2 minutes). Thanks and sorry about that.

The server crashed and was down for a few minutes while I fixed a bug. It's booting back up now, sorry about that! Thanks for the report though.

April 9th - 1:50 AM EST Updated proxy to rework some code and add additional logging around Client<->Proxy communication. April 9th - 2:20 AM EST Updated the server to fix a problem that was causing sectors to occasionally deadlock (most commonly during raids).

Pushed a proxy update for a slight rework of the code although there's a high likelyhood that this is a client problem.

Client<->Proxy communication socket closed suddenly. This is obviously a problem that I need to put more time into now. Thanks!

Added more logging for this in latest proxy update. Thanks.

The PTR is now open for anyone to register and test out. If you're interested in trying out characters at max level with all skills and some decent gear while helping us test then come register and hang out on the PTR server for a bit! Read the following thread to get started:
