Forum :: EOSERV :: Stuck on "Updating Map" or "Loading map"

I've been getting these errors and found out why.

I was on map 5, and the mapid was correct. But since Sausage has the code "std::abs(mapid)"(Absolute value of mapid) it returned 0. It only happens to a select few, but heres the fix.

Go to handlers>Warp.cpp & handlers>Welcome.cpp and search for this code:

"std::abs(this->player->character->mapid)"

They will be under the PACKET_TAKE & PACKET_AGREE actions.

Change it to: "this->player->character->mapid"

Works fine for me.

Nice little fix, This will help alot of people.

Just to make sure i understand this.. I will never be stuck on a (map 0)?

The server will never let that happen. This fix will just make sure you don't spawn there or when you walk you don't try loading that map.

It hasnt worked for me, but to be honest im not sure if the scripts have any effect on my server at all :S

That's like saying, im not sure if having GFX files in my client have any effect on my client.

Of course it does. It's called code. It ALL adds up. Read the code you can understand it.

Yes, but i dont know if they are linked to the server, all of them are in a folder called scr so i think they effect it, but it still hasnt worked.

That would be why! How do i do that?

The same way you compiled it the first time...? Just click 'build'.

Still didnt work :/

I did get a hell of alot of errors saying no such file or directory

you need to set your search directories and linkers. 

EDIT: Quick Guide: Including your files in CodeBlocks and Compiling!

Open Your Eoserv folder (trunk)

Open the folder Project

Then open the file mingw

This file should open codeblocks and the eoserv project.

In CodeBlocks Press the + on Resources

Then the + on project

Then right click winres.rc and click Remove from project.

Now go to Settings -> Compile and Debugger

Go the the Linker Settings tab

Press Add

Browse to your include folder inside the eoserv folder

and Open libmysql.lib

Press Add

Browse to your include folder inside the eoserv folder

and Open libpthreadGC2.a

Press Add

Browse to your include folder inside the eoserv folder

and Open WS2_32.Lib



Now go to the Search Directories Tab.

On Compile, Linker, and Resource Compile Add

Your include Folder inside Your EOServ Folder.

Press OK.

To Compile Press F9

Rofl. You've never compiled before... Sounds like you have no idea what your talking about when you were talking about the code...

I'm in a full helping mood, So you need to add your Linker settings. If you search the forums for compiling tutorials you'll find what you want.

EDIT: @ Addison, Shouldn't it look like this. "this->player->character->mapid);"

If you have it like: this->player->character->mapid You will get errors.

It still keeps on sayin "updating map"=(

Edit

i fixed it =)
