Someone CRASHING the server (Not the client)
« on: Jun 23, 2009, 03:46 pm »
Someone keeps using ranked alchemist potions to crash the entire server. I can't test anything. Their name is HansSL.. and Noob Sin. Maybe there should be some sort of lock on making this item if possible.. I don't know but it seems quite ridiculous to allow something that crashes the entire server. Its completely pointless to have this test server if someone dedicates their life to it lol.

I've not heard of this crashing the server before.  How exactly are they using ranked potions to crash the server?  Are they just casting Pharmacy? Twilight Alchemy?  Or is there something else they're doing with them?

Any extra information would be great.

Just shooting out ideas, it might be related to the @rank or whatever command it was that made your character automatically ranked?

Ohh, possibly, as I've never heard of ranked potions crashing the server until now.

No clue but I know the error is only on RMS TS. You become ranked, then make a white potion and use it on a soul linker and you crash the entire server.. Might be because of the Ka skill effects. Temporary fix it.. Rel is taking over the ranks. Says it will take 3 days though.

As long as HansCreator is an Alchemist ranker I believe this will still error, but we can't test until he comes on and tries to crash it again and Im guessing they're asleep. They are a legit ranker at 30m points. They didnt use @rank/@ranked.

As from the looks, Hans nor Noob has come on in the last week or so. Also, last time they came on they didn't try to error the server, so the cuts out seeing if it still errors or not. but I just think its a sprite clashing problem, and possibly can be fixed with a few script tweaks. I have also tested this on my OWN testing server, and nothing happens, but I think I'm running a newer eAthena SVN.

This problem was fixed quite some time ago. Afaik errors =/= server crashes, and errors are caused by items that exist in the database but you don't have in your .grf. ie; summon mob 1879.

I just knew this was a sprite problem. i didn't think it was just a script malfuction, but possibly sprites. I have a fully updated Sak, so that probably why I'm immue to it. I guess Hans and Noob were exploiting it because some people don't update their Sak too often. Lets just hope they don't try this again under new names when another server wipe comes. (Isn't that due this week?)
