Hi guys,

I have a problem in last sphere server nightly svn build. For example,

once you set a time to an item, then when it comes to finish in timer, the timer gets -1 and item is flipped automatically. I tried this with 2013 pre release 56b and it is fine, there is no problem. However, in 56c build, there is something wrong in timing issue. I dont actually get it why it is happening like this. Normally, it is supposed to get -1 in timer and stay as it is. What is this flipping ?

Maybe you can provide more information, i've just tested this and it's not happening to me... it may be an event in the items

In House system, I have f_house_lock function and which removes attr_decay on the item and makes item's timer as -1.
I have a living shard right now and the version of it is 56b. Until that time, i havent any problem. However, i just want to use new definitions of resources of chardef and itemdef as deflist, i decided to use 56c. The thing that i just realize is this situation is happening not only my house system but also happening like the following case ;

If i just give an attr of move_never to item and after that set its timer as arbitrarily number like 2-3 or whatever, it comes -1 and flips.

I dont have anything related with flip issue in my events. If so, there would be something similar in 56b versiyon until this time.

Move_never has always set its timer to -1. Why it is flipping I don't know. This is intended though. As it is not to decay or be deleted. So setting a timer to attr_move_never will always set that timer to -1. There is no bypassing this besides adding on=@Timer trigger to the item.

As for the FLIP? I don't know about that. The only thing I added to that intended behavior was attr_insured, attr_blessed, and I think one other thing. Nothing was edited minus the list of things it checked.

Oh I added attr_nodrop and attr_notrade. That was what else was added. Which are soon getting changed to one flag. (Heads up for people).

I know Khaos, how attr_move_never works, but i cant really know why it flips around itself There is really not a script to interfere items like i said. Still dont know. Even there is no general control mechanism on=@timer , right ? , exist in Sphere Server Or am i wrong ?

Is it possible to happen because of the defnames ? Since i changed lots of definitions from 56b to 56c actually. Like spells so and so forth. Maybe something irrelevant or incorrect definition may lead to this situation. This is just a guess, i donot know the possibility.

Lastly, i did realize that ships have problem with 56c, ship tillerman says somethings, i do not remember, i forgot to note it. Cant use ships in water tile. Commands do not work. But it is okay in 56b. I'm using last pre release 2013 sphere version so not actually old compared to 56c

I think Ben fixed the flipping issue if I remember right? I can ask him about it. I know he did an edit not long ago dealing with something with items flipping around. Defnames shouldn't be an issue here; unless you are calling for an item that does have a possible dupelist and you are calling the baseitem. Still doesn't add up on why it would do this on the TIMER though. Is there any way you can post or PM me this script to test that is flipping on timer? That way I can try to reproduce it.

Ships on 56c I know nothing about. I ask people all of the time what are the issues with ships. You could be missing a speech file or they just aren't attached to your ship multi/region.

Ships should work in a water tile. This was never an issue before and I haven't begun the fixes to ship problems since I don't even know what all of the problems are. If everyone can contribute on this thread any know ship bugs that would help a lot. These should be ships bugs found on clean servers or not have many/any custom scripts attached; so I know it is a sphere issue and not a script issue from the user.

For the flipping issue, i haven't got any script related items. In game, i just set "attr_move_never" then command it like xtimer 3 , for example. Yet, after 3 seconds, item flips.

For the ships, i have speech files and i have living shard having more than 70+ online player. Almost everyone in server uses ships with no problem in 56b last pre releases. However, as i said in 56c it is stuck on the ocean let say.

The speech files like the following ;
