Group fighting

Postby Hayate » Sat Jun 24, 2006 12:28 pm

With the new combat system (which is great if your fighting in a group or pair by the way, nice work) I believe I have found a bug.

Every now and again (im not sure what is causing it) when fighting in a pair a single creature appears to die twice and give twice the exp, twice the drops and twice the gold.

This, obviously, is a form of cheating and I hope that the few times it has happened to my by accident will not been seen as such which is why im advising you of this situation.

Thank you, thats a race condition I would not have caught on my own.

I believe the cause was the fact that the data used to calculate was pulled up at the beginning of the code that kills a monster, but was not reset until the end. This allwed people who were fighting at the exact same time to run the functions at the same time if the server wsa sufficiently slow enough. The xp should not be given out anymore for the second death as all used up xp is reset immediately after being read in.

I noticed that I fumbled my final attack 'supposedly' doing zero damage... the creature still died however... did I fall into it and crush it or something?
