[Release]Fix LOTF Crash (Somehow)

[Fish*]

Here is a release for LOTF (5017) that can fix your crashes some how. What is it?? Well is just an auto restart every XX:00

First find (in general.cs):

PHP Code:

Thetimer = new System.Timers.Timer(); 


Under paste:

PHP Code:

                //Restart Server
                System.Timers.Timer RSATimer = new System.Timers.Timer(1000.0);
                RSATimer.Start();
                RSATimer.Elapsed += delegate { AutoRestartMSG(); };
                System.Timers.Timer RSBTimer = new System.Timers.Timer(1000.0);
                RSBTimer.Start();
                RSBTimer.Elapsed += delegate { AutoRestart(); }; 


Now find (in general.cs):

PHP Code:

public static void DoStuff() 


Above it put:

PHP Code:

                public static void AutoRestartMSG()
                {
                    if (DateTime.Now.Minute == 00)
                    {
                        World.RSMSG1 = true;
                        World.SendMsgToAll("Server AutoRestart starts in 2minutes.", "SYSTEM", 2011);
                    }
                }       
        
        public static void AutoRestart()
                {
                    foreach (DictionaryEntry DE in World.AllChars)
                    {
                        Character Char = (Character)DE.Value;

                        if (DateTime.Now.Minute == 52 && World.RSMSG1 == true)
                        {
                            General.MyPackets.Vital(Char.UID, 12, ulong.Parse(Char.Avatar.ToString() + Char.Model.ToString()));
                            Char.LastSave = DateTime.Now;
                            Char.Save();
                            World.UpdateSpawn(Char);
                            World.SendMsgToAll("Server Restart in 10seconds. All Characters have been saved.", "SYSTEM", 2011);
                            Thread.Sleep(1000);
                            World.RSMSG1 = false;
                            ServerRestart();
                        }
                    }
                } 


Now open Database.cs
and search for:

PHP Code:

public static Hashtable GWScores = new Hashtable(); 


under it paste:

PHP Code:

public static bool RSMSG1 = false; 


Done, your server will now restart every hour & your server will fix crashes automatical since it just need to be restarted. This will not fix login freeze some how, but it can help on it
If i helped you press thanks ;D

You didn't code this, this is stolen from the PazeCo source. All you did was remove some of the pop up messages.

[Fish*]

Okay i really stole it LMAO you can visit my server and see i can code ****, want a screenshot of my source?? my source is build out of the original lotf source, so i doubt you can talk **** i didnt steal anything......
I doubt that you have started from the start and coded everything self x.x

Dont be jealous cuz i know you wished you could make it.

[Kiyono]

You can't say that he stole it unless all the names are the same too.

This code doesn't solve anything, all it does is restart the crashed server, so it can crash again, I doubt this will make anyone happy.
Oh BTW, no offence but this isn't anything to be proud of code wise.
And yes, I also think you stole this.

lotf crash circa after alittle over a hour. This restarts server alittle before wich makes it wont crash. I have got it on test all day now and i havent got 1 crash yet ^^

[CompacticCo]

Oh man, let me make this out in a nice way.

You can't even speak English fluently and you're white.. You have little to 0 Conquer knowledge.. You didn't know what Visual Basic was until someone felt sorry for you and connected remotely to your computer to change the default "Welcome to PazeCo"

So I highly doubt this is your own work.

[Fish*]

I used the first release of lotf (the original) and coded everything i got in my server. I can take some screenshot so you can see i ain't lying. And cuz im white, dosn't mean i have to speak proper english, cuz im not from uk or usa. And little kid go home k?

shouldn't need to restart every hour.. you shouldn't even need to restart every day.. techinally you should restart it every week on like a monday at 8PM but if you want every day do it when no one is on .. usually 5AM in the morning =]] server maint ftw.

[iLikeSkittles]

This does not solve the crashing. It's a cycle of crashing. It's like this:

Server Started --> Crashes ---> Server Restarts ---> Crashes Again

This will make players annoyed. I believe this was already released before. I'm sorry to say, but this technically does not help the server at all.

Might as well modify it to a Full Ini database system and the crashes would be gone.

P.S. I would be using the 5165 source by now which is a Full Ini Database Source.

The restart takes about 30seconds ^^

Wrong, i have not got one crash yet. The crash were used to come always around 1hour. Now i putted restart auto, so the crash dont come. I have not seen the crash now. Also this is good to save for rollbacks XD

[iLikeSkittles]

The crashes do not come at a certain period of time. It crashes faster if there are more players in the server roaming around killing mobs etc. Also there would be no rollbacks if you make it save the characters each time they log out or save it each time something is changed/updated.

Haha, I just noticed every sentence you say is wrong.
1) You always have to spell i with an capital if you mean I as in yourself.
2) The crash doesn't come around a certain time, he can hop in at any moment. *Sarcasm, just in case you didn't realize.
3) But the crash never comes, the crash crashes.
4) You cannot see crashes, however you can make it write things down in the console.
5) Why do you save a rollback?!
