uMod - Plugin causing server to not auto save - Paratroopers

Posted 5 years ago

Hey there,

I have noticed a weird issue, my server has stopped auto saving after a few hours of running. So I was digging through the console logs and noticed that the auto saves stop when the Paratrooper event occurs. I've currently removed the mod and I'm going to see if the server stops saving for some other reason.

Cheers,

I checked a number of validators, all said everything is fine.

I am having the same issue. The server save process stops after the first Paratrooper auto-spawn event occurs.

I save every 5 mins, and after reviewing my log files, I do not see any more saves after the first paratroop auto-spawn event (after a server restart). I have not been able to test if reloading the plugin rectifies the issue.

As a bandaid, I'm using TimedExecute to do a server.save every 5 mins.

Sadly, I discovered this after reviewing my log files when my server crashed tonight and instead of rolling back 5 mins, the last save had been 11 hours before (needless to say my players were pissed).

Note: I tried reloading the plugin and the server.save did not resume. Looks like a server restart is only way I know of restarting server.save.

This shouldn't be stopping anything as the only thing it saves is the cooldowns if any for players. Same as any other plugins, same exact method as well. I will investigate this further regardless.

I did further testing on my private server. The only plugin loaded is Paratroopers.
I also have RustEdit extension installed.

I set the server to save every 60 seconds.
I set the Paratroopers plugin to auto-spawn every 6-120 seconds.
You can see by my env.time timestamps the server save stops.

Note: using most up to date Steam, Oxide, and RustEdit updates.

I ran a second test with using the "/pt random" command and it stopped the server save as well.
I set the auto-spawn to false in the config.
Restarted the server.
Logged in and ran the command.

You have something different going on with your server then because this literally uses a universal structure found in most plugins that save cooldown info.

#region Data Management
        private void SaveData() => data.WriteObject(storedData);

        private void LoadData()
        {
            try
            {
                storedData = data.ReadObject<StoredData>();
            }
            catch
            {
                storedData = new StoredData();
            }
        }

        private class StoredData
        {
            public Dictionary<ulong, double> cooldowns = new Dictionary<ulong, double>();

            private double CurrentTime() => DateTime.UtcNow.Subtract(new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0)).TotalSeconds;

            public void AddCooldown(BasePlayer player, int time)
            {
                if (cooldowns.ContainsKey(player.userID))
                    cooldowns[player.userID] = CurrentTime() + (time * 60);
                else cooldowns.Add(player.userID, CurrentTime() + (time * 60));
            }

            public bool IsOnCooldown(BasePlayer player)
            {
                if (!cooldowns.ContainsKey(player.userID))
                    return false;

                if (cooldowns[player.userID] < CurrentTime())
                    return false;

                return true;
            }

            public double GetTimeRemaining(BasePlayer player)
            {
                if (!cooldowns.ContainsKey(player.userID))
                    return 0;

                return cooldowns[player.userID] - CurrentTime();
            }
        }
        #endregion

And that is only called when the server does a save

private void OnServerSave() => SaveData();

I have tested this on all 30+ servers I have all that have well over 275+ other plugins and I cannot reproduce your issue.

Just an example it has saved multiple times and save after a Paratroopers Event has started as well

Is it possible you are executing a server.save command somewhere?

Not in the plugin no. You can search the code yourself. There is no reason for the plugin or any plugin to ever execute that command when there is a OnServerSave method in Oxide

Hey - to help remove any doubt, I created a completely new, isolated private server on my personal PC.

Note: this is occurring on my live server which is on a hosting provider and the tests on my personal PC.

Updated install to latest Rust and Oxide versions
Installed only Paratroopers and Kits plugins
No extensions
Set server.saveinterval to 60 seconds to save every minute
Used default configs/data/lang files for Paratroopers
Entered a valid skin in Paratroopers config

I ran the "/pt random" command and the server saves halted.

You'll see I unload the plugin to see if the saves resume and they do not.

I hope this helps! Thanks for your work on the plugin

The may be that your trying to save every 60 secs.

My live server saves every 300 seconds and this issue still persists. The 60 seconds is for testing purposes.

#15

I am having the exact same issue on my server, this plugin is causing my server not to save for several hours at a time. Removing the plugin rectified the issue.
