TM Skill System 3.0

I need information, not statements that there are more problems! >_<

//calms down

@Padriac -- sounds like a problem with the gates...Profiles are set up to not care how many there are. Are you experiencing this with any other gates? (do you use any other gates?)

Edit:
So, as far as I can tell, I reproduced your situation, Padriac. I have 26 profiles, and a skill gate (basic distro, no mods). I set the gate to Profile 26, and saved. Nothing happened. I just saved and shut down the shard and nothing happened...am I missing a step/steps here?
(Although I did find a bug in the selection gump code..)

Edit 2:
I do not see how the MakeGump() method can cause NullReference unless you modded something, Iomega. What all have you poked at? And I REALLY don't know how there could be serialization errors unless you poked at something. I've had TMSS 3 running for a very long time myself with no ser/deser errors...

lol.. yeah I know but my stupid server wont run in debug mode, gives me some invalid argument when trying to run it.. the only error reports I can give you are the ones it throws at me when it crashes and thats all I am able to get for right now untill I can figure this thing out.. I can be patient on fixing this.. I will post later when I get an update on how things are progressing....

That's about it. Only 18 of the 25/26 are in use on Skillgates. I modified some of the profiles (changed their skill mix and modified the name). This made new profiles out of them and left the old unchanged, so I have more profiles than I need. After installing the last profile on a skillgate, I return to the start area to find the newest gate gone and the profile gone from the list. Rinse and repeat. About 4 times now.

Ok, well:

@Iomega:
Make sure you're typing: "server.exe -debug" into the command prompt. Also, you didn't answer the question about modifications :).

@Padriac:
Mebbe I should make a house call...I'm confused.

What are you confused about? I've created the same profile and added it to a skillgate. The skillgate just disappears and the profile is no longer in the list. I've done this about 4 times now. Either there is a bug in the system, or someone is trying to drive me crazy. There is no means to delete the profile in game, so I don't thing someone is doing that. If just the gate was gone, but the profile remained, I might think someone was deleting the gate. As it is, it seems like the two events are connected somehow.

If a profile that was attached to a skillgate should go away somehow, what would the skillgate do? How would it react to not finding the profile it needed?:confused:

The system reacts by setting it to Default Profile. It does not delete the item.

Does the file for Profile 26 exist on the hard drive?
Also, can you restart the server, then try to set a gate to 26?

Ok I have figured it out, my problem is coming from the control stone.
I have an existing Skill Stone set with the settings from the Control
Stone and it has been saved and loaded just fine, But what happens is
when I change the settings on the control stone, save and then restart
for some reason the Skill Stone screws up and has to be deleted and
replaced in order for it to work correctly.. Dunno why any ideas?

This server is remote to me and I cannot easily see the profiles on the drive. I am taking a break from the shard, so we will have to put this on hold for now.

Iomega -- I need you to come to me and show me how you did it. I don't know how it is happening.

Padriac -- Ok then...I'll keep looking.

I'll PM you the IP and port of my test server. If you can, we'll set up a time tomorrow night around 9:30 to do this.

Some answers here

I had a little spare time, so I took another look at the TMSS profiles using my test server. It appears that the new profile was going missing due to the name I called it. It was a Tamer/Mage profile, so I called it that "Tamer/Mage Skills". Because of the way that your system turns the name into a profile file name, it was seeing the / as an illegal char and thus nothing was saved to file. When I came back to the skillgate, it did not have the default profile installed. It said no profile instead. Why the gate itself was going missing is still a mystery.

In any case, once I changed my new profile to Tamer_Mage Skills, it saved and came back after a save/reboot of the server.

Most people would not think anything about files on a disk when they pick a name for the profile. Perhaps you can either warn on the creation screen or pull out illegal chars before creating your file.:D

hahahahaha...well. That explains it.

Thanks for the heads-up, Padriac. I'll put a warning on the TMSS 4 gump.
