[RunUO 2.0 RC1] Player Government System Version 2

[Avelyn]

I do have a question, when I went to place in malas, I was told no other cities could be built on this facet. Why is that, is it something I did?

No you need to edit PlayerGovernmentSystem.cs and enable city placement in Malas. The part on max cities for Malas, change it to a number above 0.

Yes, it reproduces every time. I don't understand, but I can't also make it happen on my local computer. This is a new house, player put foundation, starts customizing and constracting, after player trying to close house editor crash appears. I've not tested because I've deleted all towns to prevent crashes but I'm thinking this bug appears only for new houses. But I'm not sure.

You can't make it happen on a local test shard? Does that mean that it crashes on your main one but not a blank one? The system works fine with custom houses, we have been using it for months with no problems on housing. Have you done any edits to the customization stuff or to BaseHouse? Do you have any system's that did do edits to them? Please run in debug mode and post a debug crash so I can see exactly where it's crashing. It does not seem to be in anything changed by the government system.

I too just had a crash when custom housing is placed. The city hall is there, and soon as we make a house, the server crash. here is my crash report:

I did not use a gm or higher account to create the house, just a player account

Hey Avelyn, great job on the script!! Same thing happened to me with unrepeatable crashes. Life goes on.

Have you thought about a boolean feature to have housing placeable ONLY in cities? And condemning them if they aren't in one, etc? I've got it installed on mine and it adds a wonderful dynamic. All the sudden cities are everywhere and reaching every rank. But it's not written in as a boolean feature. I'm sure you'd be beeter at making that happen than I would. Keep up the good work!

after reading comments about basehouse, i did edit that for xmlseige, i am gonna try and undo that and see if that is the issue. Soon as any custom house is made, the system falls

 

[Hanse the Insane]

I placed the old basehouse back, still same error. here is the log:

I even went as far as to create a back up, fresh, no changes, nada. Added the system and soon as I placed a custom house, the same error happens. I am at a total lost here. When I ran the older version, no errors at all.

That's a completely different error than the other person was getting while placing a house. Your system is crashing when the house is trying to load the Multi.mul file in the client. It is showing as the client file being corrupted, incomplete, or not loading properly for some reason. Have you messed with custom client patches or edited the multi.mul or multi.idx files or created new houses? The error is occuring in HousePlacement.cs here:

// This holds data describing the internal structure of the house
			MultiComponentList mcl = MultiData.GetComponents( multiID );

It's having a problem loading the multi data from the client files. I don't see any way the government system could cause this.

Please try make sure you have house placement on the stone turned on, and that you are able to place the same custom house without crashing outside of the city. If it only happens in the town and the housing is actually turned on, please post a debug log.


Also make sure you are using the latest version of the client from OSI.

Older version as in for 1.0? The problem is not in Basehouse.cs.

The city system should not affect housing at all. All it does is make a region and either allow or disallow housing, the same as a town can. There are no housing edits.

Most of these crashes had nothing to do with the system, when people make this many edits to distro files sometimes things can happen.

It is a neat idea to do the bool that way, and it would be simple, but it would upset a great many people on my shard lol. I have players that are anti-city and attack people for just being in them

 

[Hanse the Insane]

question, where is the data stored that shows who is what mayor of what city?

The CityManagementStone stores who is Mayor and Asst Mayor

 

[Hanse the Insane]

I have tried using a second account, who is a citizen, to sponsor them. no issues, yet as soon as my main guy, the mayor okays the sponsor, bamm, i crash

Is the Mayor your Admin? Does your 2nd player have a house ,as arent other players on the same account considered co owners (so not eligible to be a citizen).
Got a crash log?

 

[Hanse the Insane]

the mayor is on a seperate account, just a player. All the guys from that account are players but have 1 house, so if I underdtand correct, they cany join? okay, now I understand that one
