It takes just about 5 minutes after bootup to crash.. its
consistant.. ive timesit.. i think it might perhaps have to
do with the area resets..
something that might have some level of importance is i just
installed samson's snippet to remove vnum limit.... |

| Heh, I just posted in the other thread about the problem without realizing you had this one here. I'll see if I can explain it a little better.
I'm assuming your using Sadiq's, gotten off of Samson's site? The problem is with the modifications to generate_exit, as described in the snippet. I've never looked very deeply into it, as I just ripped out the problem, and it was like 2 years ago, but I seem to remember that the code was over extending the vnum limit.
Stock SWR's main area, coruscant.are, use bexit, to increase its size. I worked out at the time that the crash was being caused when a mob was walking into one of the rooms that had a bad vnum, created through the code in generate_exit. |

| Saqid's 2 billion vnum Snippet
Tells coder to replace sh_int with int.. and any reference
to a numbered max vnum into MAX_VNUMS..
While installing the snippet there were 2 or 3 places where
it asked me to find something and replace it with something
else, however the text it said to find was not there..
In mud_comm.c do_mpstrew, do_mpscatter. In skills.c
do_slice. After throughly examining the missing parts I have
determined they played no part in any of the SWR functions.
Other than those 3 instances the snippet installed very
easily and didnt give any compile or run errors. But at
precisely 3 minutes after the mud starts it suffers a
critical failure and shuts down.. (the log in my post above)

I know a little bit about commenting things out if thats
what you mean.. but if its not then please elaborate. In all
actuality could you elaborate a little bit either way.. I
would appreciate it as it might keep me from making a stupid
mistake.
Please and Thanks |

| In the next few days, I will sit down with the latest SWRFUSS and try to apply the vnum snippet and try to find the exact error thats causing the crashes. My method at the time had been to remove exdist from all the area files entirely. I left the generate_exit code in for later use, but I just removed the reading/writing of exdist from the area files.
When I come up with a solution, I post it here, or I might just modify Sadiqs to work with SWR and post the differences. |
