Items lost their prefix upon Dimension shifting

Question

Items lost their prefix upon Dimension shifting

Closed this issue 7 years ago · 20 comments

Many players on my server has reported that sometime all their items lost its prefix when they move from one Dimension to another.
This glitch/bug seems to happen randomly and not every users has it.

SSC -> Non-SSC, SSC -> SSC, Non-SSC -> Non-SSC?

Answer 2 · 2017-07-22T17:29:50.000Z

SSC -> SSC, 2 dimension share the same database using mysql.

Running Dimensions v4.10.1?

Answer 4 · 2017-07-22T22:35:49.000Z

And when you say the prefix is lost, you mean that the item is removed of its prefix, or that it changes to another one?

Answer 5 · 2017-07-22T23:01:10.000Z

the item is removed of its prefix.

Answer 6 · 2017-07-24T05:26:20.000Z

ok now I have reports that items' prefix change as well. Warding Golden Chest for example.

Do you have only SSC Dimensions, or non-SSC Dimensions too? A quick look sees that a character's inventory is restored on switching from an SSC Dimension, and I've not checked but it looks like it happens regardless of whether they are switching to another SSC Dimension. Now I'm wondering if those prefixes line up with the character's actual inventory because that might suggest something involved with that operation.

How often does this happen?

Answer 8 · 2017-07-28T18:00:49.000Z

Only SSC Dimensions. It usually happen once every 10-15 dimension-shifting.

Answer 9 · 2017-07-28T18:38:00.000Z

Is this per person or overall? Is there any consistencies in who has the problem?

Answer 10 · 2017-07-28T19:49:17.000Z

I never have the problem myself but most players and staffs encountered many times (we have a plugin that check and disable player who have invaild item prefix).
It doesn't seem to target any certain player group or item. I have seen stuff like Massive Gill Potion or Armored Copper Shortsword. Seem really random to me.

Answer 11 · 2017-07-28T21:56:16.000Z

But do these prefixes have anything to do with that persons normal (non-SSC, client-side character) inventory?

Answer 12 · 2017-07-28T22:11:14.000Z

I don't know about that, let's me ask around and see what I can get.

Answer 13 · 2017-07-31T06:27:04.000Z

Ok, after asking around, here what I got:

Seem like it has nothing to do with non-ssc inventory
However, the prefix change stay consistent for a perticular item on a perticular player.
Ex: One of my player have a Space Gun (no prefix). Upon dimension shifting, it become Dull Space Gun So I gave him a new Space Gun (no prefix). But when he move dimension, it become Dull Space Gun again! I repeat that process 3 times and eveytime, the Space Gun become Dull when he change Dimension.

Alright that is helpful. If you can find any way to replicate it that would probably complete this issue. In the meantime I'll just have to poke around to see if I can find any causes.

Answer 15 · 2017-08-04T21:07:11.000Z

Ok, so before I start properly looking into it, try and see if the removal of inventory restoration when switching between SSC Dimensions changes anything. Also note that you will need to npm install to get the new module for reloading that it uses.

Answer 16 · 2017-08-05T04:52:11.000Z

Ok, give me a few days to gather feedback about this.

Answer 17 · 2017-08-17T22:25:12.000Z

Any updates on the situation?

Answer 18 · 2017-08-18T02:07:25.000Z

So far nobody has report the problem anymore. Seem to be fixed now.

Answer 19 · 2017-08-18T09:34:33.000Z

Then this must mean something about the Inventory Restoration process is done incorrectly or at least incorrectly in regards to SSC. I'll mark it as an official release and for now, I will assume that the restoration works fine when deployed going from SSC to Non-SSC.
