Weird bug crashed server and broke my profile.
Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2017 10:36 pm
Hey there,
Was playing on my "new player boot camp" server and chatting with Marvin whilst doing some mining.
As I launched from the moon I was mining there was an explosion sound as I just about entered a jump and the server crashed.
Just before everything got stuck I heard an explosion sound as if I died.
And the server menu even briefly display "DeathTechDB has been destroyed."
Although the area I was in (a desolate moon), there were no other ships or objects (like asteroids) to my knowledge.
So I am not sure why I exploded, the moon had no atmosphere so I can't have been the friction of flying at 6 k speed.
My theory might by that an npc ship may have jumped in my path but that's all I can think of.
After restarting the Evochron 2D server and reconnecting I found attempting to connect with the profile actually gets the game stuck in the loading screen.
It also seems to prompt a "unhandled exception error" when I tried reconnecting. So I was just stuck in the hangar log in screen when it showed 5 more seconds.
After restarting my game completely I was able to rejoin the server without the unhandled connection error.
Still it was quite the scare and sadly brought interruption to my game and Marvin's game. (Although brief.)
Thanks to my quick rebooting. :3
Would appreciate investigation into the matter Vice. <3
Also here is a pic.
Thanks in advance.
