Hi all

Galactic Dynasty - Packet Report for 2021-11-24 23:34

VERSION "00022"
GAME ID " 98"

For those involved in the inter-bbs game can you check you system is up to date please. Here's the issues the reporting (updated thanks to Andrew) is showing.

|*00021*|* 97*| 2021-11-24 02:04 | | 17 | Bottomless Abyss BBS |*00021*|* 97*| 2021-11-24 23:00 | | 18 | Rocket Town BBS

So essentially nodes 17,18,25,28,29 are running out of date versions of software but sending in game packets that won't be processed.

Nodes 23,27 are not sending anything in. These two are likely to be removed first in the coming week if nothing changes.

Best, Paul

Let's try and suss what's up, can you share a recent time of logs that show packets coming to 1/10 HUB?

I can track my end from there

What OS are you running on? And did you get the version from what Paul
hatched?

Could this be from before you updated? It's 4 days ago now.

I wonder if Paul processed some old packets after you updated and it
recorded the version of the old packets in his reporting database.

Not sure what's happening, I see you're running Win32, so it's almost
certainly the exact same version Paul is running.

Paul: I wonder if you delete the ibbs_data.db3 file (that's the reporting database) and let it fill up again. I'm just wondering if it's a false positive, either caused by old packets, or if the last packet from Argos
was from before you upgraded?

Note: if you delete the ibbs_data.db3, the reporting tool won't work
until you get more data from maintenance and galactic dynasty recreates
it.

Running on Windows ... Not sure what may be going on ... I checked my Bad directory, it is empty. When I launch the game and check IBBS Scores, I am seeing score updates and nodes just fine. I even checked filebox and nothing is there.

For those involved in the inter-bbs game can you check you system is up
to date please. Here's the issues the reporting (updated thanks to
Andrew) is showing.

[snip]

So essentially nodes 17,18,25,28,29 are running out of date versions of software but sending in game packets that won't be processed.

Nodes 23,27 are not sending anything in. These two are likely to be removed first in the coming week if nothing changes.

Apologies the info I posted a few days ago was incorrect. When I was quoting the stats the text wrapping led me to conclude some nodes were in error when they were not.

Here's the correct data

I think I'm OK it's just the text wrapping when I quoted the original report data that caused me an issue/confusion :)

I just checked my game. I am running v1.3.0-DEV and my Game ID is 98

Apologies, and thanks for the logs. I checked and confirm you're fine. My error was in the way the quoted text wrapped and I mistook your node as having an issue when it had none. :)
