/island_create overwrites other islands, about ftb-islands HOT 8 CLOSED

This is... Odd? I'll look into it.

from ftb-islands.

Can't reproduce. Using island_create will always use a free position.

Any more information on this?

Sorry for the slow reply, I didn't have email notifications on... D'oh.

The only info I can add is that I moved the server from one machine to another... which I suspect has caused the issue, but I can't fathom out why, unless the code has another record of the spaces used, other than the .json file.

Question :- in your test, does your island.json look like mine?

from ftb-islands.

I created the islands in the same order that you gave in the original issue, and the island.json does not look like yours. It added to it in the order that I created the islands, and removed the proper ones when I used the remove command.

This is definitely an odd issue, but I suspect it may have been an edge case kind of problem.

Hi,

I figured that the json wouldn't match, and I think that is the cause of the over write issue.

I really should look at the code, and answer this for myself but... Does the code use anywhere else to work out where to put islands, other than the Json?

from ftb-islands.

The code decides where to put the islands based on a list of positions that is created on launch, the json simply stores where the islands are so that the used up areas are not reused even after a launch.

Hmm, strange mine should over write then... i'll leave it in your hands if you want to continue investigating or not, as so far i'm the only one reporting the issue, I'd guess you'd close it, as you can't reproduce.

Thanks for the help.
