chuk Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 DescriptionThe infamous ???? bug is known to scramble up the inventory and banks of players whenperforming certain actions : Storing an item in the bank Withdrawing an item from the bank Dropping an item on the floor Picking up an item from the floor Equipping an item Unequipping an item Selling an item Usually the user gets prompted with an error and gets disconnected. Then when logging back inthe inventory or bank is corrupted with ???? items. Those disapear the next time the player logs in.CauseAt this moment there are reasons to believe it is related to a bug in the sortingmethod of the inventory (both manual and automatic). It screws up the item IDswhich gives problems when performing above actions.TestcasesPreparations :A garbage character of any level/class that can get buggedAt least 31 items in the bank or inventory (try to copy a normal inventory setup)A friend with the same conditions as above Stacked items as it seems to happen more with them being involved (monomates and such will work )Tests :1. standard test manual sort A. Deposit all your items in the bank B. Withdraw about half of them really fast C. Sort the items randomly in your inventory D. Deposit half of it back in the bank E. Withdraw as much items as possible from the bank F. Disconnect using alt + back space 2. traded items test A.

Repeat above tests in different order and with different people. ( even GM made items can be used) B. Try to memorize your steps briefly in case you need to reproduce the test to get the bug How can you help Pick a few testcases and execute them.

Cyane Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Causes dc when the other person on the room can't see the object and you end up grabbing, the other person dc's. I dc more often when I have full inventory, I usually keep it at 12-20 items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuk Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 It's partially linked to the sorting. Actually, the sorting is the thing that makes the bug visible. The bug is in the withdraw from bank method. It's not assigning IDs correctly for several items, and stacked items also have the same ID even when dropped. It's messy and causes de-syncs. But yes, tofuman is working on it and has tested it on his server. So far no bugs yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
