Saves

[Donio]

Hello, I am currently having some issues with saves on my Server.. I am getting this error in the console:

[Error - GlobalEvent Interface] 
data/globalevents/scripts/save.lua:onThink
Description: 
data/globalevents/scripts/save.lua:30: bad argument #1 to 'maxn' (table expected, got nil)
stack traceback:
	[C]: in function 'maxn'
	data/globalevents/scripts/save.lua:30: in function <data/globalevents/scripts/save.lua:29>
[Error - GlobalEvents::think] Couldn't execute event: save

this is the saving script I use in globalevents:

local config = {
	shallow = "no",
	delay = 120,
	events = 30
}

config.shallow = getBooleanFromString(config.shallow)

local function executeSave(seconds)
	if(isInArray(config.broadcast, seconds)) then
		local text = ""
		if(not config.shallow) then
			text = "Full s"
		else
			text = "S"
		end

		text = text .. "erver save within " .. seconds .. " seconds, please mind it may freeze!"
		doBroadcastMessage(text)
	end

	if(seconds > 0) then
		addEvent(executeSave, config.events * 1000, seconds - config.events)
	else
		doSaveServer(config.shallow)
	end
end

function onThink(interval, lastExecution, thinkInterval)
	if(table.maxn(config.broadcast) == 0) then
		doSaveServer(config.shallow)
	else
		executeSave(config.delay)
	end

	return true
end

and inside globalevents.xml:

<globalevent name="save" interval="900" event="script" value="save.lua"/>

What can the problem be?.. The server isnt saving at all <_<

I am still using tfs -> 0.3.6.

Still not saving :s

 

[Donio]

Sorry, it is working but every one is geting kicked its like : Gameworld is under maintence or w/e.. I added false on shutdown at globalsave but the same thing

 

[Cykotitan]

Weird, that shouldn't be happening in TFS 0.3.6pl1 :S

 

[Donio]

Weird indeed.. is there no other saving system that I might use?

		text = text .. "erver save within " .. seconds .. " seconds, please mind it may freeze!"
		doBroadcastMessage(text)

	end

function onThink(interval, lastExecution, thinkInterval)
	if(table.max(config.broadcast) == 0) then
		doSaveServer(config.shallow)
	else
		executeSave(config.delay)
	end

	return true
end

?

 

[Donio]

whats change on that?

 

[Cykotitan]

It has more fail .

 

[Donio]

Noticed it xD

I got a idea, does this work:

If some one can make a script were a char saves automaticly.. not all together just 1 char when he logs in til he logs out..

Like If I got my own char it will save every 20-30 min..
Cykotitans char will save somewere between 20-30 min..

insted of all saving together?

I got no other way to explain it better than this xD

 

[M4t30]

I think it will make more lagg.. :S cause in ur server thers about 100 players... it will definitly begin laggin.

 

[Donio]

200 to be more accurate, no other ways? =/

The server has been online for like 100 hours soon and anytime now I think there will be a shutodown or something, and I have not got any save system :s

 

[Donio]

no? ;P
