Minkata is back open for testing! Age State problem fixed.

[rarified]

I'm happy to announce that the Minkata testing shard is back open, after killing a major server bug that caused new explorers and explorers that visited new ages to return to a place and find changes they made earlier had disappeared.

The bug had been present since last fall, when the Minkata server had been rebuilt with new compilers and libraries. It has been in the way of advancing the capabilities of the Minkata shard to allow testing of fan content. Now I can return to the task of advancing that goal.

Please visit when you can, and let me know in this thread or the previous thread about state saving problems if you see any more state issues.

Good news that you didn't see any problems. I checked the settings and sure enough the GZ Descent marker is turned off. It is on in MOULa?

It is on in MOULa?

Yes, it is.

Someone pointed me to this post with some history about the markers.

I’ve turned the Descent marker on.

Things still looking good on Minkata?

Ran around and did all I could do in game alone and everything works for me! Good job

Thanks Jaytee for checking things out!

I already have shifted gears and am working on the next item on my to-do list towards testing fan content!

Not a history person but...lol

Quick update... I've built a new server with some more debugging code. It shouldn't change things, but given past history, I'm not one to predict

Keep wandering folks, it's great to hear the last version finally fixed the state bug!

the last version finally fixed the state bug!

Is there a patch available, or does the fix need more testing before a patch can be released?

Thanks.
