Major issues Log/Poll

[seekeronos]

ALL:

Please reply to these questions and provide screenshots and any details. Hopefully this can help the devs prioritize and sort out the issues.

You may answer questions with multiple selections as your case applies.

If you cannot login, just check on all the remaining questions for "... I Cannot Login"

If everything for a given question is normal, check the last option "...Everything's normal for me here.".

Arf too many options.

Trend is this: if vault and/or hold space more than a certain percentage full then if login to a station environment then proxy fills with opcode errors. Results in either crashing the proxy, no ability to see chat on channels, invisible to others, unable to open trade window with, terminals do not function (jobs, manufacturing), vendors do not function (null items). Proxy good chance of being in limbo state.

Characters can progress from no issues to issues above by filling hold and/or vault space.

In space -- not so many problems (discounting asteroids in Glenn being filled with devices ...) providing character logs in to space. If undock then after a re-log can be active in sector space.

Probably be fixed before too long or soon™.

Almost everything is normal for me. Mining inputs are being delayed about three to five seconds and sometimes I have to retarget a 'roid or give the "prospect" button a second click to show its inventory, but then it works fine.

The only major problem I have is the fact that I can't use core/shield/engine/device vendors; the game locks up in conversation and spits a ton of bad opcodes. This is true in Somerled station and Inverness Down; haven't tested it anywhere else.

2 of my toons get bad opcodes immediately after docking into station at login.

1 of my toons (rarely played) seems to work fine, although haven't tried undocking yet.

Was just about to see what happened when server restart happened.

A few problems over the weekend.

First, spaceflight. Sometimes when flying warping near gas clouds, the ship would turn weirdly, bounce around, and I would end up 5k or so from my target (usually above or below it)

Second, frequently the prospect button would remain disabled even after I approached. Clicking off the object and clicking again usually fixed it.

Combat: the second shot on my weapons took unreasonably long. Generally only the second shot and the last shot had these problems.

Some corpses had invisible loot.

I could enter warp in the expected amount of time. Cooldown afterward took several seconds longer than it was supposed to. Fortunately I wasn't doing anything dangerous.

Refining ores took a silly amount of time sometimes. The source item would disappear, I'd hear all the sounds, get the XP, and then... 10 seconds later the refined item would appear.

Tractor Beam to Infinity And Beyond: While mining, every once in a while, the tractor beam would not go from the resource site to my ship, but instead from some point out at infinite distance. These weird beams would continue forever, even if I warped away. They animated and made noises just like normal, but there was no resource at the end, and they went out forever.

Some corpses had invisible loot.

Now that you mention it, I noticed this too. It most frequently occurred when I killed several enemies in rapid succession without stopping to loot the corpse between kills.

there are a lot of issues with items that have gone pretty much undiagnosed for quite some time due to the problems being masked, so would appear very infrequently.

I'm beginning an overhaul of item syncing this week that should optimise the speed of vendors, terminals and station logins, and also remove a lot of problems that have been occurring with an older player base. A large number of problems and slowdowns are associated with item descriptions - hopefully the overhaul will have some impact on this.

Cannot log in, crash at Megan on my Win 7 PC. Right now server is showing up as offline on my backup computer (Windows XP). Was crashing from Megan last night as well (Win 7 PC). Didn't try using the backup then.

Never mind, got it working normally now on the new PC.

[Terrell [BT]]

Crashing from Megan again on my Win 7 PC, however, my XP PC works just fine. How do I fix this?

Depends greatly on the message(s) you get when crashing.

Went into enb files, found out I forgot to tell client to run in admin mode, and with Win XP SP2 compatiblity mode. Made those changes, and haven't crashed since, *crosses fingers, that I'm not speaking too soon* .

Make sure you also run enbconfig as admin, both that and the game client write to the registry to save your settings, UAC doesn't take too kindly to anything writing to the registry, even if run as admin it will still ask you, if not run as admin it will just ignore any command to write to registry. At least such was what I found while working on some stuff for this project.

Thank you, will do.
