mrmiguu Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 **UPDATE:**I've figured out the glitch that's been making players desync and spin nonstop when they jump and attack (e.g. spam new packets added with PV, as opposed to vanilla EO 2.0). Here's a quick fix for those of you who are deep into developing your games with the current version of the engine:1. Find the following line of code in your server's source: > If TempPlayer(Index).DataPackets > **25** Then2. Change the **25** to the new number, **30**3. Your final product should look exactly like this: > If TempPlayer(Index).DataPackets > **30** ThenLet me know if any of you can replicate the glitch even after this fix. I took my admin status off and, with 25, I was able to glitch-out fairly quickly. With 30, I had no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kibbelz Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Thats just increasing the strain on the server, not fixing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 > Thats just increasing the strain on the server, not fixing it.The strain has to increase with the introduction of new packets (animations, separate movement and inertia). If it doesn't, the maximum activity emitted by any player at any given time can stall their packet sending. There're so many instances where multiple packets can be spammed (players spazzing out because they're bored, an intense maneuver, etc.). Allowing for more leeway is necessary for a more action-oriented engine like PVO, isn't it? If I'm wrong, correct me.**_EDIT:_**I've frantically tested the data packet limit's threshold. **I got to 40** by being as spastic as I (or anyone human) could. I recommend changing what is now **30** to the new **40**. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kibbelz Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hasn't it occured you to reduce the packets being sent in a more efficient manner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 Alright, smartass. I've been developing this mod for over the span of +3 years. I think I'd know if was just patching something as opposed to fixing it. The packets are as thin as they'll ever get; literally, I'm sending flags back 'n forth. This engine (not sure if you've ever used it or not) is much faster-paced than EO 2.0\. That calls for a natural increase of server stress and data handling. Increasing the datapacket limit per player on an engine where there's more natural overhead is necessary (I'm repeating myself). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbofile Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 thanks for fixing i can get back to my sidescroller! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetasis Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Sweet. I've been waiting for this fix. Just curious, any plans on adding the event system by chance, or any other features? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 > Just curious, any plans on adding the event system by chance, or any other features?I might rework the engine to the event system version, but how stable is that version? I wasn't too crazy how the map freaked-out when it was loading (the tiles were caught being rendered). I don't plan on adding any more features. When players drop items in the air or monsters do, I don't consider that a bug. It's part of the engine's personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSnow Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 The item dropping in the air actually is kindof cool, because a Mega Man like sidescroller would absolutely benefit from something in it's style.I'm very glad you continued this MrMiguu, really. The Event system is good, not buggy as far as it's been seen thanks to JC Denton's development process. I wouldn't add all the commands, considering some aren't too suited, but it's worth trying indeed. Anyway, glad to see this revived, perhaps DirectX8 is a possibility in the future? Or projectiles? My personal love would be able to boot this up and create something similar to Mega Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetasis Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 [SnowShinobi](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/index.php?/user/66386-snowshinobi/) pretty much summed it up for what I was going to say. Well for the most part anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 If I were to use the event system – from your guys' knowledge -- would it be easier to transfer the event system over to the current PVO, or to install PVO into what is the Eclipse Event System Engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetasis Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I can't honestly answer that. I think it would probably be easier to add the event system to this edit most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 That's fine. When I get more curious about it, I'll figure out what to do. Thanks, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSnow Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Transfer the current event system onto your existing platform. There is a tut by Sotvotkong about it,adding Event system 2.3 into 2.0, but, since this is 2D you might want to grab our own copy just to be sure you get everything covered. Regardless, it's easier. But if you did that you would have to explore writing the DX8 class from 3.0 into your build yourself and it's features, but that's assuming you would explore that.

I'm sorry, but that's not my job. Just take a break. We all get frustrated. If you learn to successfully do it by yourself, you'll be happy with what you can do on your own.

moktavz Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 ok Thanks BTW Mr.Migu are you still working on Lostica Online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Yeah, sorry for being a bit smug earlier. Programming can get very frustrating when you're working with someone else's base.> BTW Mr.Migu are you still working on Lostica Online?I plan on using PVO as a base. So, that's a 'yes'.**EDIT:**I've fixed an RTE (_rte:6_) that would pop up if you would relog into the game with another account/character. I wasn't allowing the player's _.inerting_ variable to reset in similar instances when its close-cousin _.moving_ would reset appropriately. Just one more to go before the next revision release. Let me know if you guys find any bugs/errors. I appreciate you looking out for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyTech6 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 When I load it all up my player has no sprite… ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.House Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Chane your spriteYou can do that by opening your admin panel (make yorself admin, then press Insert to open admin panel) you will see what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Yeah, I apologize for that. It's the latest bug. It's another one of those that can be fixed by refreshing your character's sprite or relogging in. There's also another one accompanying it, but it's kind of obscure. It'll RTE you, but after once, it doesn't happen again.It's when you log out and log back in with a new account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
