It seems to crash on determining the ping for the pinfo command reply (for player with id 5). I can't get any more info out of this message though, I do not know why it crashed...
The weird thing is though that the location it crashed on is in the middle of one instruction, which seems to indicate that it does not properly determine the location of cConnection::Get_Remote_Host(int)

This is definatally a bug with something, it always restarts when anyone leaves the server.

Maybe the bug's in NR 3.5 BETA? Never used to happen in 3.4 or any other lower versions.

I think it's a bug in pinfo, crashing whenever the ping cannot be determined (and I guess that happens when ppl leave the server).
The bot executes the pinfo command when a player leaves though, which makes it crash. Most (older) bots don't use the pinfo so those won't have trouble with the bug.
I can't see why determining the ping goes wrong though, I can't exactly see when it goes wrong with the crashdump and can't reproduce the bug. It might be easier for bhs to fix it as the pinfo command is part of their code...

well the obvious answer would seem to be to make the bot check the player is in the game before doing a PINFO command...

just updated to bhs.dll 2.9.1 and its the same


i downgraded my server to NR 3.4 so that it wouldnt be sending PINFO.... and it seems to be running fine at the moment... but halfway though a game, i typed PINFO into the console... and it crash <_<

EDIT: also, the SVERSION command still display 2.9 and not 2.9.1

ok, firstly, I will look into the pinfo bug and may release a 2.9.2. As for the SVERSION command, its supposed to say 2.9 and not 2.9.1. Thats the way its designed.

EDIT: I have checked the code and found why it could be failing. What seems to be happening is that cConnection::Get_Remote_Host is returning NULL for some reason and that is causing the crash.
Will add extra error checking to all the relavent places to make sure not to use the result of cConnection::Get_Remote_Host if it is NULL and release a 2.9.2 sometime soon.
As for SSAOW, running any SSAOW version with a bhs.dll version other than the one its designed for WONT work and should NOT be done.

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

That seems to go wrong when it gets the ip address or something from a player when he/she joins. Doesn't seem to be in bhs code this time though, I'm not sure what caused it... :/

The BlackIntel servers seem to crash sometimes when the BW exploit "fix" message appears, not always though! Maybe it's the player join hook that causes trouble? The problem we're having doesn't create a crashdump though :S
