2018-06-05 Building Terrain Error, Server Load Distribution |

Server Load Distribution
Servers are running an experimental configuration to insure movement does not get bogged down when lots of threads are busy.
Building Terrain Error
An error in a bit of cached data is causing terrain to grade incorrectly under buildings.
This is fixed so I decided to post it since the servers were getting restarted anyway.

Primitive Weapons |

It has long been that there is only 1 handmade, primitove weapon in Hazeron: the Knife. The Knife has little reach, and no range, making it tricky to go hunting wild beasts with, and only suitable for stabbing other players in the back.
Why no bow? Why no spears, or swords? 2 or 3 more items wouldn't make too much clutter, would it?

2018-06-01 Suffocation in Turbo Lift, Smoke Lockup, Drop Current Item Button |

Suffocation in Turbo Lift
Turbo lift sometimes leaves me behind, suffocating in an empty area of the hull.
This bug is tentatively fixed. I beat it to death on the debug servers until I no longer suffocated in the turbo lift. We'll see if this works on the public servers.
The bug could have caused a number of strange desync problems, such as... - Leaving orbit in a ship and suddenly finding your ship inside the planet, or sun.
- Entering a vehicle and finding yourself miles above it, though somehow inside it.
- Launching a fighter from a spacecraft and suddenly finding yourself at the bottom of the sea.
- Boarding a sailboat and suddenly finding yourself in orbit, aboard the sailboat.
Drop Item
I found a bunch of random items on static display on a world. I got the impression they were dropped there.
Added a Drop action button to drop the current item. I surmised that a player used the Place button to drop their current item, which didn't really just drop it.
Excessive Building Updates
While examining the turbo lift desync bug, I discovered that new style buildings were triggering way too many updates to the client. This created a lot of unnecessary traffic from server to client on the network, a most precious resource.
Fixed.
Smoke Lockup
Some players reported the client locking up for no apparent reason.
Fixed a thread deadlock while rendering smoke at volcanoes and vents, caused by a recent change. They smoke continuously now.

How To Report Bugs |

Report bugs and suggest improvements to Shores of Hazeron in this forum.
o Please perform a cursory check to see if your bug/improvement has already been reported. At least skim the first two pages. It's easier for me to get rid of items that I know were fixed than for you to read through pages and pages of bug reports. Recently reported/discussed bugs get the most attention.
o Make a new topic for each bug. Don't put a bunch of different bugs into the same topic. That way I can work them one at a time. One bug per topic enables us to discuss them one at a time.
o The best reports have a brief title that summarizes the problem or improvement succinctly. The body of the report briefly describes what is broken or what feature is wanted. If more details are needed, I will request them. Please don't overwhelm the topic with lots of tiny details; they are rarely useful, often distracting. Save both of us a lot of time; keep it short.
o When a bug/improvement is concluded, the completed topic will be moved to the Closed Bug Reports subforum. It can be revived from there if needed.
o A bug that is closed will not be fixed in your software until the fix is posted. If you really want to know if a particular fix has been posted, take note of the dates on any final comments on the topic to get an idea of when it was closed. Compare that to the updates date on the Shores of Hazeron home page.
o I see every topic posted in this forum regulary. They all get attention. Don't expect an acknowledgement from me to every bug posted. The best acknowledgement is to just fix it without turning it into a conversation.
o Bug reports sent to me via private message are deleted. I've got a lot to do; don't make me cut/paste private messages into this forum.
