Server is crashing 20220818:1800 MDT

I think the first "crash" was me manually restarting the server

Gawd damnit Pooty. Msg us when you're wanting to restart the server. I've been believing this was my flaky machine doing something new for the past week or so.

2 times today, 1st around 1805 MDT, 2nd around 1833 MDT.

No one was on according to the nfoserver site, if someone is on I won't restart..the updates just have to wait.

What map was playing when it crashed today? We've played all evening and no crashing.

Last Crash here:

Not sure what that all means but that map did have issues. It only keeps one log back so that was the last crash.
If the same map keeps crashing might have to remove it.

The map is: ONS-MinusBadgerMeUp-Beta23

Started doing this crash thing about 2 weeks ago. That map has been solid for years. Did something get inherited into the map that could be causing this?

Can a flaky client cause the server to crash? I'm still not convinced whether it's server or client side caused.

It looks like a problem with UTComp bot support. Probably why only McLovin runs into the issue.

Code: Select all

Critical: (PawnCollisionCopy ONS-BlockFort-MEGA-ARENA-V5.PawnCollisionCopy, Function Engine.Actor.PreBeginPlay)
Critical: ULevel::SpawnActor
Critical: (PawnCollisionCopy)
Critical: AActor::ProcessState
Critical: Object UTComp_xBot ONS-BlockFort-MEGA-ARENA-V5.UTComp_xBot, Old State State UnrealGame.Bot.Roaming, New State State UnrealGame.Bot.Roaming

I'm not sure exactly what the problem is so not sure how to fix it unfortunately.

I'm going to try a test case where:
1. Any map, ie, not just MegaBadger.
2. Run 16 bots on both teams.

I'll report back what my results are.

You should try it, but not sure that will be conclusive. I think it might happen when players join or leave and bots are replaced. Just a hunch though.

*edit* I noticed a change I could make that might help. Totally throwing mud at the wall but might have a new version later.

Looks like it and it doesn't seem to be map specific.
Perhaps we should just turn off the bots? Some maps they are ok, many, especially newer ones, don't really have any effort put into bot pathing.

But....McLovin!!!

I'm at work atm but when I'm done today I'll try making a fix. Not sure if it will fix anything but I can at least try.
