Title: [fixed] 3.8.0-beta1: Checksum mismatches still ocurring
Post by: tomreyn on 7 August 2013, 19:32:42

Filux was hosting today, with a newer version of the Prax mod. After modifying it he increased the mods' version number, so that it is actually handled like a new mod.

So he was hosting on Linux with this "new mod" and Atze and I (both Linux) connected to him and downloaded it. Both Atze and I got a "techtree different" warning for the techtrees' single "Natulka" faction right after downloading. Then Atze and I disconnected and reconnected, but the warning remained.

Then Atze and I restarted our clients and reconnected, but the warning remained.

Then Filux restarted the server and Atze and I reconnected, but the warning remained. Interestingly this time, and before the Prax warning, I also got a warning about differences in the Aqua Pack techtree (probably the first in the list) which was not currently set (see screenshot). Also both warnings are about the Natulka faction which is not present in Aqua Pack.

Then all of us cleared ~/.megaglest/cache/ and restarted server and clients and reconnected, and only then the warning was gone.

So there still seems to be a difficult to find bug there somewhere.

Screenshot of when Atze and I reconnected after Filux restarted the server (cache yet untouched):

It happened again today, again Atze was hosting on an ADSL line which I downloaded the latest version of his mod from. The initial download failed (we got disconnected since the download stalled the game protocol connection until it timed out - I think this somewhat common issue was reported separately), so I reconnected and downloaded again. This time the download suceeded but the game reported a techtree mismatch again - first for the entirely unrelated Aquapack, then for the versioned Prax techtree.

Is there a way to reproduce the issues for us ? What steps do we need o do?  In general thats more something for softcoders  as he made these CRC- Checking.

Sadly I'm not sure how exactly to reproduce this. I will happily host for anyone who wants to give it a try with me.
