[227g31] ServerSaveInventory function

While you're at it you can test this option on the server too:
[Engine.GameEngine]
bServerSaveInventory=True
ServerPackages=...
Saving travel inventory data to an ini file, so that players in your server can keep their inventory after a crash.
I have bServerSaveInventory=True.

I manually shut down the server, and when it restarted I did not get my inventory back. Why is that?

I simulated an unexpected crash by killing the Unreal.exe server process, and when I restarted I did not get my inventory back. Something does not seem to work here.

Settings:
[Engine.GameEngine]
CacheSizeMegs=4
UseSound=False
bDeleteTravelInvOnLoad=False
bServerSaveInventory=True

you actually have to travel a map for it to work, if you get inventory, don't travel, close server, it will record nothing.

The conditions I posted were AFTER several map switches. (The inventory did get saved in the InventoryData.ini file) but somehow it does not get 'used' after a server restart/crash.

I'll go try it with different gametypes and see how it changes things, I don't think it should do anything.

btw. g_26 is up

Could there be a conflict with something like the JCoopZ GiveItems or the JCoopZ inventory restore function? (Restores inventory after you die and respawn withour reconnecting)

oh shit, I feel dumb lol

I'll remove the link and reinstall my version.

Also: I tried JCoopZ1 with the inventory retain features and it doesn't seem to effect it. I'll poke around more

Have you tried using a different name? Maybe your name doesn't parse correctly? I'm not 100% sure.

Great! I'll update!

I suggest to keep the beta's compatible with the latest available client version to facilitate public testing. (If you did not plan to do this already)

My name is Hyper.nl which should not cause any problems I think. (No weird chars in there) But I can try...

I inserted one giveitem and now the inventory travel does not work.

edit:

I would suggest checking out AcceptInventory

According to you and .:..: the travel data is being saved in the INI file identically to how it was in program memory. There must be a difference somewhere, like the restore to program memory, or else the behavior would be unchanged as if the server never crashed/restarted.

Little has changed in JCoopZ AcceptInventory() compared to the parent in GameInfo. The first pass on the AutoRunCommand array using ConsoleCommand() is there after the call to AddDefaultInventory(), and that is it. GiveItem is processed as the last standard function call in JCoopZ AddDefaultInventory() like it is in other JCoop[x] releases.

Weird. whenever I tested it, it seemed to work after the fix of the "Forged" error.

Indeed weird. Whats the difference now between our test setup and your server. The answer will be the key for the problem I think...
Can you send me your setup Hyper? Will try to find out.

thx for reminder. Was a bit busy the last days to find a performance bug in 227g. Also increased overall performance a few percent. Will have another look before g31 :)
