Also a workaround I found out, which I will be using until this is fixed, is:

if (pb.GetCommand_Swim())
    pb.StartCommand_Move();
// Then spawn Items will work for the next frame until the player automatically starts swimming again

it's in the same class. Why would I use protected there. If the TestMethod was private and I get an error, that would make sense, but not here. ThePrivateMethod is private and I call it from the same class @Traqu

@Geez This has been open for a year now and it seems the first bug at least got fixed, but still using private is very impractical at the moment (see the second post), especially because using getters and setters adds additional cost, because invoking a method is rather slow in DayZ and there are zero optimizations done when compiling the code

I just ran into a very weird bug which makes no sense to me and seems like a compiler bug hidden somewhere in the deep, which might even be the cause for some server crashes.
When I put this in 3_Game:

class LBConfigBase2 : Managed {

https://feedback.bistudio.com/T171341 duplicate

Yeah, sending custom Headers and not only content type headers would be a great addition too

Same isse: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T179174

Maybe this is related ? https://feedback.bistudio.com/T179174

I also talked to some other modders and I worte two small mods explaining the problem with the softdependencies. Is this example there Is a Test1 and Test2 mod. The Test2 mod contains a method, which should be overwritten by the Test1 mod. Due to the default alphabetical Loadorder, the Test1 mod is loaded first and therefore tries to overwrite a method, which does not exist. Even when the old #define LBmaster_Test_2_custom define and putting that in the scripts loaded by Test1 doesn't work.

I just checked again, becaus I saw other mods using somthing like

class CfgAddons {
    class PreloadBanks {};
    class PreloadAddons {
        class dayz {
            list[] = {
                "Other_Mod_Name"
            };
        };
    };
};

It not only happens when I get the string in there with the CopyFromClipboard, but also when doing something like string str = "..." and put all the data with escaped quotes in there.

Okay, that's what I expected, so we have to either spawn items only client side or try to hide it for other players.
Thanks for the answer anyways.

Nice. Seems to be fixed with the last 1.24.157353 update

Changing this will 100% break more mods than it will fix. Either introduce a >>> for it or don't change it

Why is this a bug ? This is normal behavior for negative numbers. What you mean is >>>, which does not care about the sign of the number

I just checked if my 1.24 Experimental Server and it does not start with the PBO loaded and I still get the same error. Has the fix not been merged into the first Experimental Build? I also haven't seen it in the 1.24 changelog in the forums.

Also one big issue this would solve would be adding mods, which overwrite the onstoreload and onstorewrite methods to save their own variables, cause the whole persistence to break. Being able to rewind the buffer when it failed to read the data, would make it possible to prevent wuch issues from happening. At least when installing the mod

@Geez

I just saw a fix for "Can't find matching overload for function Error" was scheduled for the 1.24 update and I wanted to emphasize, that this has also been a major problem for me in the past, that sometimes the loadorder of mods is not the way you need to have it and supporting a load of different mods will get very tedious without some proper softdependencies. Currently it's just luck if it works or I have to make a seperate PBO for the plugin, which is not really doable especially for only a few lines of code for every plugin.

Yeah, That's what I expected. I found a workaround by adding proxy physics and removing them by script when the item is attached / detached. That seemed to be impossible first too, but now it works for some reason. I guess you can close it

@Geez please have a look at this

The mdmp is from a 1.22.156718 Server, but it also happens on the latest version and has been a problem in older versions too

Or when going even further, you could implement a whole FileApi to subscribe to file changes with a callback to the reload any changed configs so for example

class FileApi {

for me personally it would be enough to just be able to manipulate the players network bubble position through the PlayerIdentity class with something like proto native void SetNetworkBubblePosition(vector position); to overwrite the position to a certain location as like the player would stand there to see items and players around (must be called by the server obviously). and a proto native bool ResetNetworkBubblePosition(), which returns true if the position was overwritten or false if the position was not overwrittien (Also maybe add a method to get the current location and get if it's currently overwritting without having to disable it, but they don't seem to be that needed). Also the PlayerBase of the player remains at it's old position and should still be synced with the server to prevent any issues arrising when deleting the PlayerBase of the player, because he is out of the range of the network bubble. It would also be cool if the VON location would be changed to the same location to allow interacting with other players like the admin is at this position

That would be useful and in addition to that, a line where the parser said: "nope, that's not what I expected in line ..." would be perfect

@inkihh He said it will be in the stable update, but I personally dislike how it's handled by the Devs, that we cannot properly test our mods for compatibility to prepare for the update. @Geez Something to consider for future updates

Please address the issue again. I've had the issue with out own Server and I know a few others, who are stuck with the same issue.
@Geez is there anything that changed since it was changed to Assigned again ?

Can be merged with https://feedback.bistudio.com/T151046

While doing some more tests, I've noticed, that also with a json String length < 60.000 I would get server crashes. It seems to have to do something with the string.Substring() method.

	static bool WriteToFile(string file, T data) {
		JsonSerializer js = new JsonSerializer();
		string jsonOut;
		bool ok = js.WriteToString(data, true, jsonOut);
		Print("Length: " + jsonOut.Length());
		Print("Json: " + jsonOut);
		if (!ok)
			return false;
		Print("Opening File for writing Json");
		FileHandle handle = OpenFile(file, FileMode.WRITE);
		Print("Opened File Handle.");
		if (handle == 0)
			return false;
		Print("Starting to write File...");
		for (int i = 0; i < jsonOut.Length();) {
			int end = Math.Min(i + 60000, jsonOut.Length());
			int length = end - i;
			Print("Writing Chars: " + i + " to " + end + " -> " + length);
			string sub = jsonOut.Substring(i, length);
			Print("Sub finished");
			Print("Sub: " + sub.Length());
			FPrint(handle, sub);
			Print("FPrint Worked");
			i += 60000;
		}
		CloseFile(handle);
		Print("Closed json File");
		return true;
	}

and this was the output sometimes (sometimes it crashed later in the program)

SCRIPT       : Opening File for writing Json
SCRIPT       : Opened File Handle.
SCRIPT       : Starting to write File...
SCRIPT       : Writing Chars: 0 to 58892 -> 58892

Okay this is getting even more "interesting"
I've noticed, that Doing this:

modded class MissionServer {
	
	void MissionServer() {
		TIntArray testArray = new TIntArray();
		for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
			testArray.Insert(i);
		}
		Print("Saving Json ...");
		JsonSaver<TIntArray>.WriteToFile("$profile:/testArray.json", testArray);
	}
}

would cause the server to freeze at some random position in the code (for me while loading Trader Objects) removing the Code will make it run fine again. If I don't put 100.000 items in the list, but 1.000.000, the server will crash completly instead of just freezing. DK, what's wrong there, but this definitely needs some attention. I've also checked if this occours while saving the json file, but that's not the case. The file is saved correctly and all my Prints were executed. When setting it to 10.000, the Server will start, but then eventualy crash. It's random every time.

Since nobody seems to care about it, I made my own Json Saver / Reader class. Feel free to use it in your Projects. I've successfully saved the TestArray from above which was a 1064kb file. This is how you use it to save files:

@Geez any chance this will be fixed ?

Great Idea, but It would be nice to have some kind of whitelist the mod needs to be put on to be able to access this function. E.g. the Workshop ID needs to be inserted into the server config as an array of Strings. I can already see some modders having the great idea to add random people ore them selfes or anything else

Thanks.
So I can spawn items / events in, but I don't get a reference to an object that was spawned ? Would be nice to get my spawned Item to manipulate it further

Can we also use that for Weapons to spawn with attachments ? Or is this only a thing for Events ? Would be great if we would have the configured attachments from cfgspawnabletypes.xml for weapons working with that too

Thats correct. I thought I wrote JsonFileLoader somewhere, but apparently not ^^. But that was the thing I meant

Thanks. Would have been a very strange limit just cutting off the Json output. Any ETA when it will be resolved ? And just one thing to note: the FileSerializer does not seem to have a limit too, if you are still looking into that. It was just a coincidene, that the size of my testfile was around 32768 bytes.
