Thunderbolt-GER Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Hello everyone, PREFACE I clean game data with the launcher on every major alpha release and did another clean before A20.5 (b2) stable, so it is unlikely that some obsolety leftovers are the cause. We also wipe the dedicated server and start a fresh, new map with every major alpha release and we only install the stable releases. THE BUG I noticed the bug that opens the console and spams NullReferenceException errors because of electric fence posts is still there in alpha 20.5 (b2) stable. It happened to me one day, when i was passing a players base on our dedicated server. I managed to enable DM and teleport away about a few 100 meters, by clicking on the map to teleport. So when i was far enough from that base, the errors stopped in the console and i could continue playing normally. I also have one BM Base with 6 Electric Fence Posts connected in a chain, 2 trip wires connected to a dart trap which is chained to 5 more dart traps. All powered by a generator with 6 engines. (No solar involved) When i tested the base for the first time, the console opened and spammed NullReferenceException errors as soon as the first zombie ran into the electric fence posts. After killing all Zombies by spamming the F1 key and trying to aim+shoot and with the help of my Junkturret, the errors stopped as soon as no zombie was triggering the electric fence posts anymore. So i rewired all electricity in my base, as i have read this tip a few times to fix this bug, but after rewiring the problem still occured in the same way. So i never did a bloodmoon in this base, because of this error. Yesterday, i showed this base to another player and strangly i did NOT get any NullReferenceException errors, but the other player did! A few 100 meters besides this base, i have another base with electric fence posts, were the NullReferenceException errors never occured (same electricity setup, but only with 4 instead 6 dart traps) As far as i know, the FunPimps were never able to reproduce this error until now. Does anyone else still get this error sometimes in A20 ? I had this bug happing since A17, if i remember correctly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I never get errors. We have a square compound roughly 25 x 25 blocks and run one electric fence around the perimeter and never had any issues during horde night. We also run interior and exterior lights too. Oh and I have a single light bulb on the electric fence circuit mounted above the door. We know that when the light is on, so is the electric fence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jugginator Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 (edited) There's an open ticket for this bug, but useful information you found there too. Edited June 6, 2022 by Jugginator (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i knew how to repro, i would have created a real ticket. It seems pretty random to me, so i can not figure out exactly when or how it happens. 7 hours ago, Jugginator said: There's an open ticket for this bug, but useful information you found there too. Oh, i did not see the ticket, i was assuming it was closed, since it could never be reproduced, since nobody found a way to repro it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, haven't been able to reproduce it at will. I do have a game save with the issue though, which is attached to the ticket for debugging.

Thank you for the info Just wanted to make sure this issue will not be forgotten, because if it happens it is a complete gamebreaker So, GOGOGO FUNPIMPS, you can do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugginator Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 If you do have a reliable method of reproducing it, it could be useful to have though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately i don't. It really seems to happen pretty randomly, so i don't even can make out the slightest indicator I just remember right now, that somewhere in the past, when i had this bug, i also picked up all electric fence posts, placed them again and rewired, which did not fix the problem either. I think it usually works again, when rejoining the server, but not always. So pretty hard to find a pattern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peilo Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 hi all. i had this bug sometimes too in the previous alphas. (different setups from bm-bases) a few days ago it appears again to me in alpha 20.5 stable. imo i have this probs only in bases with electric fences sometimes.

Torthan Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 It happens for me too. Situation - playing a co-op game hosted on someone else's computer. Electric fences are located at our horde base, hooked to a switch. Land claim is mine, my partner set up the fences. Other electrical at the base include spotlights, auto turrets (shotgun and SMG), and blade traps. The following is the log excerpt from last night when it occurred most recently. 2022-08-06T00:28:51 16894.310 INF Time: 280.17m FPS: 29.40 Heap: 6783.0MB Max: 6862.3MB Chunks: 243 CGO: 167 Ply: 2 Zom: 0 Ent: 3 (71) Items: 0 CO: 1 RSS: 5416.4MB 2022-08-06T00:29:21 16924.346 INF Time: 280.67m FPS: 23.84 Heap: 6801.2MB Max: 6862.3MB Chunks: 243 CGO: 167 Ply: 2 Zom: 0 Ent: 3 (71) Items: 0 CO: 1 RSS: 5402.8MB NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at ElectricWireController.DamageSelf (System.Single damage) [0x000dc] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.touched (UnityEngine.Collider collider) [0x0019f] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 at ElectricWireController.Update () [0x000b4] in <6a01347f98174dbdb41cb4a4eedf5af7>:0 2022-08-06T00:29:51 16954.366 INF Time: 281.17m FPS: 25.40 Heap: 6832.5MB Max: 6862.3MB Chunks: 243 CGO: 167 Ply: 2 Zom: 0 Ent: 2 (71) Items: 0 CO: 1 RSS: 5423.2MB Hope this helps!
