| Issue 514: | EPGP Lootmaster randomly not assigning GP. | |
| 2 people starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Using epgp lootmaster 0.3.57 2. raid as normal. use epgp lootmaster to hand out loot. 3. the mod states that GP is assigned, and it gets recorded in the log. but the officer note is not updated. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? We expect the officer note to be updated as normal. What version of the product are you using? What locale is your client (en, ru, kr, ch, es, tw)? What other addons do you have installed and what versions? EPGP Lootmaster 0.3.57 epgp-5.5.5 english locale Paste the text surrounded by -EPGP- in Guild Information here: -EPGP- @BASE_GP:200 @DECAY_P:15% @MIN_EP:15 -EPGP- Now, this might be important. We changed these values 2 weeks ago, the old values for the last 9 months were: @BASE_GP:100 @DECAY_P:10% @MIN_EP:15 Perhaps there is an issue with changing the values? I will try and blow away any saved settings EPGP Lootmaster may have, just in case. If this is about http://www.epgpweb.com integration, what is the realm and region of your guild? It isn't but, here we are: http://www.epgpweb.com/guild/us/Frostmane/Etched%20in%20Blood/ Please provide any additional information below. This seams to be a random issue with epgp lootmaster. I do not think it has anything to do with distance from the lootmaster as we have only noticed this behavior in TOC and everyone is fairly close to each other. For the last 2 raids we have had to watch the addon very closely to make sure that it is updating the officer notes. We have been using EPGP for ~9 months and this is the first time it has started doing this. The Lootmaster is the GM of the guild, so it is not a permissions issue. We have played with EPGP adding and subtracting GP through EPGP seams to work great, we believe the problem is with EPGP Lootmaster. It doesn't seam to matter what guild rank a person is to whether or not the person receives the GP that they should. Our last raid, of the 18 people who received loot, 10 of them did not have their GP updated properly. We are happy to provide any logs or do whatever we can to help. Thanks for your work on the mod. |

Are you having more than 1 person doing EPGP for a single raid? |

Yes. We generally have 1 person doing the reward per 15 minutes (and standby list), another doing Master Looting and awarding gear, and another doing bonus points for various things (ie: 1 shot a boss, or fastest time etc). Is this a bad thing? |

No it is a VERY bad thing. If you have more than 1 person doing EPGP for a raid you get random data corruption on officer notes. |

Ok, I just read after posting my issue number 521. We too use multiple people to handle awards for loot vs EP/time etc. Why does this limitation exist? |

Because implementing distributed locks is quite hard and there is no built in way to do atomic Get & Set officer note in the warcraft API. |

Okay. Important safety tip. Thanks. (Not to be a jackass, but, this should perhaps be mentioned in the documentation somewhere, is it appears to be news to many.) |

I just went through the wiki site and did not notice this limitation mentioned. We often run more than one raid at a time and have a raid officer from each raid doing the EP distribution for their own raid. I have recently noticed a couple discrepancies where a single person will have less EP by the end of the raid than the rest of the people in the same raid group, even though all EP was done through the use of Mass EP awards. Could this be caused by the same issue or is this likely an entirely separate issue? Also the raid leader distributing EP will change from night to night, I assume that this should not be an issue, correct? |

You shouldn't have any problems with EP/GP assignment as long as you have one person per raid giving awards/gp. Also people should not be in multiple raids, that is you can't be in one raid and standby on another. |

We are experianceing it currently... Randomly not assigning GP to the officer note... log works fine... so we can find it and change it .. after upload.. but it still doesnt work... we have to check it every night after our raid :( Not just GP Randomly missing EP... is there a problem with the mod accessing/changing the officer note? We use 1 person for all distribution methods |
