xSeries Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 For some reason I've change some skills name on MagicType and Companions, I encounter skills exp bug. I'm not sure if I need to replace the name on the source files too or not. literally, all skills won't level up, it stops at a certain exps or it will repeatly increase and decrease. I tried to look into the debug but wouldn't find anything. I might be wrong on the thought, but if anyone know or got an idea of what's wrong or what I did wrong. Please do let me know, Thanks. I may not be clear on what I said, but please do let me know so that I can clarify. Quote
Tachyon Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 If I remember correctly, the interact packet sent has the skill ID, so the server should not need the skill name you set in your client.The decreasing and increasing behaviour of the exp may be because when the server tries to send a packet to the client to update the skill status it does not find a previous record for the skill exp to increase, consequently overwriting the exp you see in the client. This may indeed be a consequence of depending on skill names in the source.Does your source have a MagicType file to resolve IDs to names (or maybe even hardcoded)? Quote

So not sure why its bug on the exps. Quote

So not sure why its bug on the exps.If the source uses names mainly then the source MagicType skill names must match the database names for the skills. Did you try changing a skill name in the database as a test and check if its exp behaves as expected? Quote

Did you try changing a skill name in the database as a test and check if its exp behaves as expected?Yes, I did match everything up. I might think its because I touched the numbers on the skill ID. ex: 4010 23 SummonBat 0 0 0 2 0 0 9005 0 100 60 0 10 0 0 30 40 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 903 Upgrade~after~lvl~40 Summon~bat~to~protect~yourself NULL NULL NULL NULL 0 getxp2 sound\Health.wav NULL NULL 0 1 0and I change it to 4010 23 SummonBat 0 0 0 2 0 0 9005 0 100 60 0 10 0 0 30 100 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 903 Upgrade~after~lvl~100 Summon~bat~to~protect~yourself NULL NULL NULL NULL 0 getxp2 sound\Health.wav NULL NULL 0 1 0 Quote
Tachyon Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 The number you changed is the needed level to learn or upgrade the skill. You increased the needed level for all the skill levels (0 to fixed), right? Right now I have no idea why changing the level would cause this trouble Quote
xSeries Posted January 19, 2022 Author Posted January 19, 2022 Yes, it is a weird bug. I also didn't think that changing the level required will cause the bug, but yet it's not common. Quote
