TracerFacer Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 After today's patch ( 1.2.14.36041.618 ) Anytime you drop off troops with the CTTS script, the client crashes to desktop. Anyone else notice this? Happening in every map where we use CTTS. I've tried repair on both client and server with the same results.
Grimes Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Can you post the crash logs from the clients? It helps to narrow down what might be causing the crash.

SilentGun Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I have a similar problem, when an infantry spawns after a unit is destroyed while using RagnarDa's Dynamic Medevac Script, all the clients in the game crash. here's the crash reportCrash log.zip Link to my Imgur screenshots and motto http://imgur.com/a/Gt7dF One day in DCS...

TracerFacer Posted January 22, 2015 Author Posted January 22, 2015 Once it crashes for me, I can't get back into that same server at all.. keeps crashing.. have to restart the server before I can get back in. Still may not be able to get back in. Crashes. Once I am in.. seems fine until I try to drop/spawn troops via CTTS. logs attached.Logs.zip
Grimes Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Thanks for the reports, I've narrowed it down, reproduced and reported it. Its a scripting engine bug that will effect all scripts using coalition.addGroup() in MP. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Invisibull Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Do you know if the problem will be a quick fix? I certainly hope so. I spent quite a bit of time implementing and testing the Medevac script on my server only to have the update break it the next day. i9 9900k - GTX 2080 Ti - MSI Z87 GD65 Mobo - 64GB HyperX Predator RGB DDR4 3200MHz - Win10 64 bit - TM Warthog w FSSB R3 mod - TrackIr 5.
SNAFU Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Uh, that`s a show stopper. Hope this will be fixed soon. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Unsere Facebook-Seite
wopski Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Yup seeing the same issues with a number of our missions.
FlightControl Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) I certainly hope so. I spent quite a bit of time implementing and testing the Medevac script on my server only to have the update break it the next day. Same situation with Gori valley... Developed a framework for months. Published it today and guess what. Clients are crashing due to update. Disappointed. Revert back to previous version like I did.

MBot Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Any news whether this will be fixed with priority? This also breaks coop for the Guardians of the Caucasus dynamic campaign.
TracerFacer Posted January 26, 2015 Author Posted January 26, 2015 Yeah, this is killing our server. Crashing every client when one guy does something simple.. even a simple group activate is crashing the clients... how does something like this make it into the patch cycle with out getting caught? It was obvious that there was something wrong seconds after applying the patch... Is there ANY QA'ing going on? do they QA in MP mode with the popular scripts that people are using? What is even more frustrating is that with each patch cycle, I never notice any bug fixes, only the new ones that are introduced. The stuff being fixed seems minor compared to the stuff that is broke. Could just be my perception? Sling load - Broke about 5 patches ago - no hope in sight of a fix? Embark/Disembark doesn't work in MP... did it ever? ADF Nav / Transmit Message doesn't work in MP.. did it ever? And now this.. Countess numbers of people have put in countless numbers of hours in to designing missions, only to have the rug pulled out from underneath them, with no word as to when we can get a fix.. not only for this new thing.. but all the other stuff that don't work.. And then I look at the next patch notes.. and maybe some inane meaningless features is fixed.. but meanwhile.. the sling load of the huey's has been broke for months now.. Entire missions are broke now and can't be played. When you spend a significant amount of your free time building missions.. only to have all that work wasted is very frustrating.. Would appreciate some feedback from the DEVs - Is there a road map of current bugs that are being tracked/worked on? Like a source forge or something like that? Is ANY of this actually being worked on? Or are all efforts being put into EDGE - and we just have to suck it up and wait - If the later is the answer.. that is fine.. just tell us - so we stop wasting hours and hours developing content. We don't get paid to do this. I'd rather not waste my time building anything else if the end result is that NONE of it works.
Grimes Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 They are well aware of the severity of this bug. Yes it appears to be a priority. No I cannot say when the bug will be fixed.

TracerFacer Posted February 4, 2015 Author Posted February 4, 2015 Any chance ED could force a reversion to the previous version? This on going issue with 1.2.14.36041.618 is a serious drag on our servers and missions. It is impossible to explain this problem to the average player and have them revert to a stable version. Most players are just not following these details but they are wondering where xxx mission is or wondering why they keep getting booted from servers. People have gotten upset with server admits cuz they are getting booted. They just get pissed off and don't come back thinking its the mission, server, or admins. This should have been backed out on day one... Its been a few weeks now and we are still in the same boat. Is there any update? If not can't we just go back one version? Seems like an easy temporary solution until it can be fixed properly?
Marioshata Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I can't believe this isn't fixed yet. It seems like ED is actually one person, but he is currently on vacation. :crash:
SilentGun Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I guess there waiting for the MiG-15Bis update later this month.

ajax Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Ez-Ian, I don't believe your suggestion will fix the problem... at least it did not for me. Did you do your testing as the host? The problem only affects remote MP clients. If the script is run on the host, then the script works as expected without crashing.
Mr. White Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 I tried to host airwar's brilliant TOOTALL Mission, but as expected from what I read about the problems with the CTTS script lately the clients DCS crashed on join. Is there any work-around meanwhile or do we have to wait till the next update?

Axion Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Grimes, has this been fixed within the latest beta? Unable to test at present but my fellow squadies would love to know. Cheers.

Grimes Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Like I said, try it. :) I tested it with a very simple script and it didn't crash. I didn't have a chance to use it either in an actual game session setting or spawning a bazillion units at once, so if issues arise please let me know. There are likely still some issues with cargo objects and related functions for the cargo objects. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.
