max-chunks has to be >= 74?

Hey,

I've been battling a problem with "corrupt user profiles" for some time. It happens rarely, but often enough to cause a problem. I recently managed grabbing a case and cleaning it up to recreate the problem and it seems that setting max-chunks too low causes it.

Here's how to recreate it:

wget -q -O - http://get.pocketmine.net/ | bash -s - -v development
./start
{all default settings}
cd players
wget http://leet.cc/crashes/xaxtraxtax.dat
cd ..
./start

Log in to server with username "Xaxtraxtax". It takes some time as the server has to generate a fairly large map. But eventually it works.

Now, go into pocketmine.yml and change: "max-chunks: 256" to " max-chunks: 64". Then try logging back into the server with the same username. Now it doesn't work. You end up in an endless loading screen.

It proves (at least on my system) that the cut-off on "max-chunks" is that you can't log in if max-chunks is lower than 73 or 74 but you can log in if max-chunks is larger than 73 or 74. I think the actual cut-off depends on available memory but haven't had a chance to confirm.

I hope someone finds this helpful. I've struggled a lot with figuring out why sometimes some random users couldn't log in.

Anyone have any idea why setting max-chunks too low would make users unable of logging in?

Corrupted user profile - meaning when a player is logged on it looks as 8f they were stuck in the void?

No, it gets stuck on the 95% of the "loading server" screen.

Yeah that and this. When I was stuck in the "void" no chunks would load and when I try to attempt to log on it would get stuck on about 95% on building terrain loading screen most of the time.

use default setting "256"

I could, but I want to keep it low to get down resource usage. I mainly wanted to share in case someone else was having the same issue.

Strange but I ran 50 without the problem arising.

On 1.5 or 1.4?

In 1.4.

Notable people I know on many servers are facing this problems. Heard the solution is to delete player profiles...

?

lol wut

what the.. infected minigames on legion? :3

People on kik are complaining l8ke mad dogs lel.


Its a secret glitch implemented by the illuminati so that minecraft pe gets depopularzed and so they could continue their secret underground regime of ruling the world without mcpe multiplayer and it's economic while smoking weed in their lairs of hell...

I was tried to change to 74. but, ussualy my server was crashed cause EventChunk or fullChunk anyone can help me?

But seems to be if you due somewhat sporratic like dying while jumping or dying on a half slab you respawnwith no chunks loaded and your screen heavily bobbing.

u can only rescue the player file (and inventory) if u use an nbt editor.

isOnGround = all the time "1"
AIR = 300
health = 20

and if its doesnt work change the position from player by POS

then the player can connect again to your server

Or just simply delete it.
