Appreciated!

Hi misticos!

Just wanted to let you know your object remover plugin is a LIFE SAVER!
We've recently run into a few issues maintaining entities on our server. With your plugin I found the culprit pretty quick. Some issues with our NPCKits duplicating items and NPCs dropping them but never actually deleting them. + the good old planner being at 40k which is unexplained so far but we've made a 100k entity removal because of your work!

Thank you so much, we really appreciate the hard work you do!

Hey Neighigh !!
Did you find which kits did this or was it across all kits?

As I am having the issue but don't want to get rid of the kits. What was the solution, please pass it on, lol.

 
 

Hi @Thunderchile !Ok so yeah this plugin is still being used by us! We actively delete every entity outside of TC range before every daily restart. We have a seriously large amount of NPCs and various other plugins running that could be the issue. That being said many of those plugins had 'item leak fixes' over the last year regarding similar issues, so I still can't be sure where our leak is coming from.

Here's our approach:

Server restart every 8 hours - This is 3X a day.

Just before the restart, we run timed commands that delete various entities. We have 3 different lists because it really is that bad, if we try to delete all 3 lists at once, the server crashes.

The above process pretty much helps us stay clean all month, we've been dilligent in citing which entities are building up and can confirm that most of them are handheld entities and attachments.

Theory: This is why we believe it's from NPC's being outfitted with kits and whatnot, possibly more than one plugin is trying to outfit each NPC, leaving equipped weapons in limbo. 

I can't be totally sure of any of the above, except that clearing our entities on a schedule has been our long term solution. Helps keep the RAM fresh and the server running smoothly too.

I hope that helps and good luck!
