gsc causing the server to suddenly crash

[broken168]

The code is pretty messed up, but since I used only one kill, score and zombie counter, it caused the server to restart. There is no pattern, it is suddenly, sometimes in very high rounds, sometimes with a few minutes in the game. Any suggestion?

the code:

#include maps\mp\_utility;
#include common_scripts\utility;
#include maps\mp\gametypes_zm\_hud_util;
#include maps\mp\gametypes_zm\_hud_message;
#include maps\mp\zombies\_zm_utility;
#include maps\mp\zm_transit;
#include maps\mp\zombies\_zm;

broken168 said in gsc causing the server to suddenly crash:

When server crash wich error you see? You see connection interupted? you get kicked with no messages? you get overflow error?

[broken168]

Sorex The server breaks and restarts, automatically losing the connection to the host. I get the error "Oops! Plutonium T6 ran into a problem and must be closed" in the server cmd. Two files are generated, one .txt containing the error ```

Exception Code: 0xC0000005
Exception Address: 0x00000006
 

and the other is a 600mb dmp file that I was unable to open to try to find the error. I used the initial script (hud with kill counter, score, health) from an old server in my region, and I was adding functions, and I found a post from the owner talking about the same error, but I couldn't apply the solution he proposed ( https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/1312/is-there-anything-in-this-gsc-file-that-explains-eventual-crashes?_=1600180398764)

healthPlayer()

{
	self endon("disconnect");
	self.healthText = createFontString("Objective" , 2); 
        self.healthText setPoint("CENTER", "BOTTOM", "CENTER", 3.5);
       self.healthText.label = &"^2HP:  ^7";
       while(true)
        {
		self.healthText setValue(self.health);
        wait 0.1;
     	}
}

Try replacing this function. (rewritten to use setValue instead of setText as setText can cause overflows)

[broken168]

Did not work. The same error occurred.

[broken168]

Cahz Aaa ... I simplified the code and went to try. I thought it was working, when, in round 21, the server hung up. I can't really see anything wrong with this code.

broken168 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kQDY_zuEuaSY2JjOPepzsxSSjfYrb_8H/view?usp=sharing Compile this script as _zm_bot.gsc and place it maps/mp/zombies. Include these dvars in your server config:

set debugModTimescale 5
set debugModPersonalGodMode 1

Play on the server until it crashes with your mod installed. Next comment out features of your mod in order to determine what affects the stability of the server.

[broken168]

JezuzLizard initially thank you. I did everything you said, but I can't connect to the server, I get the error "server disconnect - time out". after several attempts I was able to connect only once and was able to test, but I'm here again, trying to connect to the server and without success. the folder you shared has a .txt with other dvars, I tried to use them, but got the error "Server is full".

[JezuzLizard]

broken168 I didn't say to use the other dvars from the dvars.txt. If you want to use them maybe read what each dvars name is so you what they do first. As for not being able to connect to the server with the mod loaded I don't have an answer. I use this mod all the time because it has several useful functions that I can enable with dvars making it convenient to use.

[broken168]

JezuzLizard Really, I just tried to use it to see how it worked. I will keep trying.

[broken168]

JezuzLizard Hey. I managed to make it work. I changed the value of debugModTimescale to 4, maybe I was not connecting because my pc is low-end.

Thank you so much for your help.
