So I have some facepaint added to as an integer to playerbase but for some reason extra integers are read when OnStoreLoad triggers, even if my mod is last. To fix this I added a string as follows:
override void OnStoreSave( ParamsWriteContext ctx )
{
super.OnStoreSave( ctx );
// store facepaint
if ( GetDayZGame().IsServer() && GetDayZGame().IsMultiplayer() )
{
ctx.Write( "DUG" ); // bullshit but it works, what a fucking HACK
ctx.Write( m_DUGFacePaint );
}
}
override bool OnStoreLoad( ParamsReadContext ctx, int version )
{
if (!super.OnStoreLoad( ctx, version))
return false;
if ( GetDayZGame().IsServer() && GetDayZGame().IsMultiplayer() )
{
// read facepaint
int facepaint = 0;
string dugfp = "";
if (!ctx.Read(dugfp))
{
return false;
}
if(!ctx.Read(facepaint)) {
return false;
}
m_DUGFacePaint = facepaint;
}
return true;
}If I do not read a string I get a random integer, mostly 3 for female characters back? Adding the string DUG fixes the issue with existing characters before that facepaint integer was added. Something in the engine I guess stores an extra integer after everything else? usually 3. Sometimes it something else breaking whatever my integer was supposed to be and crashing people.
