Author Topic: Server still crashing when trying to host  (Read 3296 times)

This has been a continuous problem whenever i try to host.
Problems in the past included too much client addons, I already got rid of those.
It still crashes when I try to host servers other than MERP.


tl;dr: server crashes when hosting addon-heavy servers

stuff i forgot to post the console

probably a bad addon, if it was the number of addons/datablocks BL would just stop loading the last ones

try disabling groups of addons to narrow down which one is causing the crashs

Heres what I do twice a week.
"Clear All Addons and Start Anew"

that's probably a bit excessive

don't do this, if your server was working fine before it's something you recently installed into your add-on folder

did an addon sweep (disabled several addons), still crashed, here's new console

I had this same issue yesterday. I removed blockland glass from the addon folder, and I was able to host again. Try removing Glass.

how would i be able to manage prefs though?

you can get a stripped down version of RTB, greek2me's is ideal. either way you should test if it works without glass. its unlikely it is purely glass's fault though.

test first, then worry about lesser problems after
not crashing should be more important than managing your preferences

and you should be able to edit prefs in the prefs file, if need be

what the forget removing glass actually worked

have you made sure that glass is up to date?
can you host with only glass?

glass is up to date
and i used rtb before until i heard it crashes if you have a lot of datablocks too

I don't think RTB was crashing on the amount of datablocks, but instead on the amount of addons
I remember reading somewhere that RTB was putting a list of all the addons in one string, which would then overflow the string limit and crash
