Random Desync in Multiplayer

Post by DawnbringerHUN »

Hy!

Last night everything was working fine, then suddenly from now on my friend keeps desyncing in MP, and even after looking through the log I can't find anything useful. Everything is the same version.

Desync log : https://pastebin.com/Uv5fhx3L

Can anyone help?

Since the desync is happening almost instantly you can try removing mods until the issue is resolved, start with the most uncommon mods. Without the desync report there is nothing else anyone could do.

What do you need from the desync report? I thought the log was enough, sorry.

See my signature, deactivating the mods will be faster though.

Crash is occured on friend's side too.
Friend's dump : https://drive.google.com/file/d/10mSElD ... sp=sharing
Friend's log : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WTSTfR ... sp=sharing
My log after heavy mode: https://drive.google.com/file/d/120Etf3 ... sp=sharing
Friends desync report zip: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iDZhT1 ... sp=sharing

We tried to estimate what is causing the desync, also tried to turn off specific mods, but we found nothing on this.

Friend hosted the save, I got desynced too. No desync in vanilla or in new game hosted with the same mods.
Desync occurs even if we stand still and don't do anything.

Desync is because of VoidChestPlus 2.2.2

Code: Select all

local function init_chests()
  -- gather all void chests on every surface in case another mod added some
	global.VoidChests = nil
   for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
    chests = surface.find_entities_filtered{ name = "void-chest" }
    for _, chest in pairs(chests) do
      chest.infinity_container_filters = {}
      chest.remove_unfiltered_items = true
    end
  end
end
chests variable is not local

There is also GhostPlacerExpress 0.1.6 issue

Code: Select all

            if items_removed == 1 then 
                _, revived_entity, __ = player_selected.revive{raise_revive = true}
                if revived_entity == nil then 
revived_entity variable is not local

Having someone proofread my code is always helpful, thanks.

Thanks for letting me know which mod causes it! <3

If I see it right, you fixed Void Chest in 2.2.3, thanks!
