| Summary | 0019021: Very bad networking performance/Null reference | ||||
| Description | I have two machines on my home network. One is a wired-in desktop (linux), the other is an OSX laptop using the wireless. I had my desktop host the game, and the laptop could successfully connect to it, see the pre-game map selection screen, and it would spawn an ark for both players. The problem is that it would take between 5 and 20 seconds for the laptop (client)'s clicks to be registered on either machine. The desktop was as responsive as usual, but the laptop's unresponsiveness made it quite unplayable. I also noticed the following error on the laptop: 03/06/2017 19:34:34 (0.106) Mem: 34,582,528 Mode: Host Plat:OSXPlayer -----------------------------------ErrorsReportedByEngine----------------------------------- ----------- NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object Stack Trace: Arcen.AIW2.Core.World_AIW2.SerializeTo (Arcen.Universal.ArcenSerializationBuffer Buffer, Boolean IsForSendingOverNetwork) (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/ArcenAIW2Core/src/Logic/GameState/World_AIW2.cs:94) Arcen.Universal.World.SerializeTo (Arcen.Universal.ArcenSerializationBuffer Buffer, Boolean IsForSendingOverNetwork) (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/ArcenUniversal/src/Logic/GameState/World.cs:76) Arcen.Universal.UniversalMessageHandler.HandleMessage (UInt32 senderNetworkID, Arcen.Universal.ArcenDeserializationBuffer buffer) (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/ArcenUniversal/src/Logic/Networking/UniversalMessageHandler.cs:67) Arcen.Universal.ArcenNetworkMessageHandler.HandleMessage (UInt32 senderNetworkID, Arcen.Universal.ArcenDeserializationBuffer buffer) (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/ArcenUniversal/src/Logic/Networking/ArcenSocket.cs:292) Arcen.Universal.ArcenSocket.DoPerUpdateLogic () (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/ArcenUniversal/src/Logic/Networking/ArcenSocket.cs:192) Arcen.Universal.Engine_Universal.OnUpdate () (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/ArcenUniversal/src/Engine_Universal.cs:563) ArcenGameController.Update () (at D:/vclarge/AI_War_2_Ultra/AIW2Unity/Assets/ArcenCode/ArcenGameController.cs:40) I am running .106 on both machines. | ||||

No mods, or exact same mods on both? |
|
|
I believe I have removed all of my mods. I will compare my xml files to a non-modded version to make sure. On a related note, it would be useful to have a "have any changes been made locally to the XML" button. |

|
Probably useful in general to have it note discrepancies along the lines of what appear to be there, and say "server talked about a ship called BobsShip, but that wasn't on the client" or similar. |

|
Just because that's going to happen again and again. |

There do not seem to have been any mods on either side; the laptop was a fresh install and there were no xml changes on the desktop, and I hadn't altered any C# code. I agree that we want some sort of detection of inconsistent modding eventually, but it doesn't seem to be particularly urgent. Incidentally, I've made my local AI War 2 installation a git repository so I can more easily track mods that I've made (and any interesting changes to the external XML/C# files). I can't imagine that being a scalable solution for others, but it should make it easy to explain what mods (if any) exist. |

This problem no longer reproduces; there is some lag, but nowhere near as bad. This bug can be closed |
