Server crashes
Thursday, March 1st, 2007The Tetattds server has crashed several times since we released 2.0 (and actually many times before that too) . I found and fixed a potential problem, so I hope the server is more stable now.
For those interested in the technicalities, it happened when the client closed the connection at the same time as the server sent out a packet. The server would then close it’s end of the connection, but after a while it determines that there was a timeout, since the client never replied to the packet sent out earlier. At this point the data for that player was already deleted, and it crashed as a consequence.
