Title: Warning: Invalid Slot move spam ?
Post by: Drezden on January 14, 2011, 08:37:37 am
 This started poping up on all my logged in toons this morning. It has a 10 digit number with it and says something about 0 charges.

 I asked in /ooc a lot of folks getting it and said it started yesterday. I didnt get chance to log in yesterday so i dunno.

 I'm on SoD client with mq2 and ISboxer running on Win 7. I was just standing around reading chat when I noticed it. Happening at exact same time across all my boxes. The numbers varied per account each time.

Reported and noted as an EQEmulator defect - will happen every ~10 minutes on clients SoF or higher.

Read http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=32880 (http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=32880).

A fix is posted and is likely to be imported into the trunk soon.

There is nothing wrong with your account and there is nothing untoward occuring now.  Ignore it.

Issue is fixed in EQEmu trunk and will be fixed on the server when Hunter next updates source.

Just a bad warning message that should mean nothing to you.  Ignoring it is the best thing to do...

They know what caused this to happen, IE is it coming from the server?
My test server is not up to current and this just started happening today for me and I figured it was nothing to worry about.

Very briefly, it appears to be ... possibly... an anti-hack call put into SoF+ clients by Sony.  They appear to be sending the time you logged in to the server as a unix timestamp (UINT32.MaxValue - NumberSent = Timestamp of when you logged in) every 10 minutes.  Its been like this forever but the server had code to filter out the warnings over this.  We finally ticked down enough that the cap of 3 billion that it was created for was surpassed (and we are now down at the 2.9999 billion level).

Trevius has no idea what the point is and neither do I.

If you update your source code right now, Balthor, its fixed for you.

I will probably update tomorrow, give trev time to make sure its in the svn and nothing else changes tonight that gets committed.
still need to setup the aug stuff and play with it since I have an idea about using augs as a vital part of progression.
Of course Im spending hours and hours doing nothing but reading threads and have gotten almost nothing accomplished in the last two days.
Should have this baby playable in a couple months so my friends have something they can host/play on the upcoming deployment.
