Hey everyone! Fall is here and Halloween is near!

Double Loot event from Thursday Night (Midnight) to Monday Noon (12PM CDT)

Code Update

This week I've made quite a few crash fixes that have cropped up recently, those can be found here:
https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/commits/master

Crash Fixes

In September we had about 6-8 unique crashes and those were all patched up. We've been running 2 days straight with zero crashes, this puts us back to where we've been running for the later part of the past years. We've had some massive code overhauls in EQEmu over the past year which is bound to have a few things crop up here and there.
This is largely in preparation for the upcoming Halloween event to be announced, stay tuned for more details soon. We want to ensure a smooth and stable Halloween this year and that it should be!
Between large server hardware upgrades and large code performance updates over the past year, we should be in great shape

Stress Test and Double Loot

This weekend I want to do a stress test before Halloween, which means I will be doing a Double Loot event from Thursday Night (Midnight) to Monday Noon (12PM CDT)

hey so, today I decided to switch out all the 8-slot backpacks in my bank with the 10-slot box. while doing so I got a couple messages of something like "desync error" ? and all the stuff in the boxes were gone. not sure if this was related to the new code changes? I have seen this once or twice before but usually nothing is lost, or if something is lost then you just camp out and back again and it's restored. well I tried that, twice, all the stuff is still gone. nothing major, mostly just some halloween pets, and some old anger augs I don't really need but..

I just remembered, it might be related to using the ctrl-click to dump the entire contents of one bag into another. ? might want to take a look. I didn't lose anything important but would really suck to lose a whole bag full of essences, or GSoA's etc..
