Title: IMPORTANT READ ALL: Test of car streamer 16-01 and 17-01
Post by: Gandalf on January 15, 2008, 04:58:33 pm
As we still are trying to lower the crashes, we have noted that the majority seems to come from car desync.
In a new attempt to solve this, we will be testing a new car streamer the next 2 days.

This will lead to a number of inconveniences, that are needed in order to test the system.
- Your car will not show up as owned, because the car ID will be dynamic
- Car spawns will not change to the /delivercar place, and /delivercar will NOT work
- Fuel might be messing on a number of cars

We understand the inconvenience, but ask all of you to bare them during the test.
Also understand that we can only be sure of the test if there are 20 or more players in server. This is why we can not use one of our test servers for this operation.

After 2 days we will review the results, and put back the current car system.
If the new streamer solves the problem we will work hard to rewrite the ownership details and custom spawns in to the streamer in short time.
If there is little to no difference, we will continue the current system, while looking for other solutions.

Good luck and I hope it works out Gandalf. When 0.2.2 was first released, there was much dissappointment but now, positive feedback is coming in and we are behind you 100%. I did not crash once in the last three days! Great job, and I hope all goes well.

I have also noticed worsening stability for crashing, even where no moving cars are nearby (i.e. 3 crashes in 15 minutes on top of Chiliad - multiple people at once).

Post by: Hyper on January 18, 2008, 04:08:46 pm
ok cool, although i never had crashes that were related to cars...
And if you start rewriting the car-ownership, please leave this car unowned: ID 499.
Its owned by someone who doesnt play SA:MP anymore (asked him) and he is banned too.
AND i likethat car and may want to buy it :)

PS.: What else is wrong about the current car system?



Oh, and btw. Its 18-01 now and the car system is still messed up xD

Well it's kinda annoying.This test was supposed to take 2 days? Why don't we restore the old steamer then? Cars are spawned in the middle of the road every 10-20 meters preventing good chases and transportation. Jetmaxs also spawned infront of LSPD and in many villages out of Cities where there is no water.
And the crashes are the same for me. And people complaining all the time like "i want my car back" "i used to have elegy i now have jester O_O" and this kind of stuff. I am not complaining but i thought i should post a moer specific report about it. Admins doing great job. Keep that way guys.

Thank you.

Notice:

Attention all SAMP members. You were warned in the first post.


We are still running tests with the car streamer and this means cars are very messy with the script system. Therefore we warned you in the first post. DO NOT buy nor sell any car or vehicle. As the will cause some errors with either you losing money.

Aragorn has decieded he will take some goverment action either refunds and so on once the car systeme is back up and running. Please don't reply saying i lost my car due to this we know who lost there cars and will be refunded as soon as car system is restored.

Regards
Haldir

That severely broke the server, right?  :conf:

I don't like having different cars spawning everywhere, and I definently hate the "Car Spawns on Login" thing. Whenever you crash, you lose your car you were driving in  :lol:.

I like what we have now, I personally don't see anything wrong with it - unless there is a physical script problem, or something. The 0.2.1 Car Ownership system (+ /delivercar, /paintcar) is best.  :D

It doesn't matter, you'd still have to have the same amount of cars as now. Basically, everyone would own 3 cars not 1, and no other difference.  :D
