Inactive [MECH] Backpack v2.2.0 (The Ultimate Inventory Expander!) [953]

Yep, it is incorrectly stacking multiple items. I broke two dirt blocks with one button on each. I now have FIVE buttons. The dirt was stacked OVER 64 to 76 and only when I rearranged the stacks in the inventory did it correctly break it down to 64 count and leftovers.

Hope that helps.

Oops... didn't see that release... I'll give it a try. Thanks for the quick response!

Do I get an award for a < 60 second turnaround on a fix?

Only if you can tell me why I can't log into my server now... even when I remove Backpack...

I can only see part of the message in the client and the server log only shows "lost connection"

"nse code: 503 for URL: http://www.minecraft.net/game/joinserver.jsp?user=MMZ_Time" (My user name to be sure)

Edit: I also tried to launch MC without Craftbukkit... same error.

Hi Afforess, first good work, but the fix didn't work for me. I'm try do mining, and if i get a item my stacks go over 64 and I get more than the items I mine.

At this point, it looks like I somehow corrupted my world data. I did close the java window without typing 'stop' in the console. I'll restore a previous backup and keep a copy of the broken world. (Sigh)

Okay, I see the issue too. I thought I had fixed it, but I guess not. Digging deeper.

Works fine for me. Only multiplies if i pick up more than a stack of an item.
Have you set it to not stack over 64?

This is because minecraft.net is sporadically up and down. Try launching your server in offline mode if that is an option.

Updated to v0.16. Hopefully that fixes all the issues. Please report back, MMZ_Timelord.

Now it works fine for me, thank you Afforess.

The fix seems to solve the duplication, but I'm still getting items that stack over 64. Also, items picked up are not moving to the extra backpacks unless I switch to the backpack first.

Btw, I find it extremely impressive how fast the turnaround on the fixes have been. Really shows your effort.

first the plugin idea FANTASTIC i know me and my players will love you for it

second xml instead of yml THANK YOU!!!!!

ThomasJ,

Thanks for the information. As I'm just now getting the restore done. I'll simply rename the directories and try the original server that I thought was corrupted. I had never seen that particular error when minecraft.net was unavailable before.

Glad you like it. XML >>>> YML. No whitespace issues, and easy to read and understand. And built in Java parsing.

Glad to hear I wasn't the cause of map corruption. >.>

Hm. Items on the ground should still get picked up when your open inventory page is full. As for the overflow on stacks - not sure why that's happening either. More debugging..

Thanks!

Cheese. Sounds good.

Awesome idea but forcing people to install MinecartMania and decfonfigure it just for this is just a horrible disservice to eveyone.

Afforess,

I have observed that Backpack is still wanting to stack some things in over 64. Cart Tracks are the primary culprit.

EDIT: Easy test:

Open your inventory and drop more than 64 of one item that normally stacks.
Close your inventory.
Walk forward and to pick up the drops.
Open your inventory and observe the over 64 stack in the inventory slot.

(end EDIT)

phaed,

That is very narrow minded of you to say. Afforess is simply reusing code... over 70% of which is already in Minecart Mania! Now what could possibly be a good reason to reinvent the same wheel?

Configuring Minecart Mania! to NOT function is pretty easy. Maybe Afforess could simply put up a MinecartManiaCoreSettings.txt file that is already pre-configured only for use with Backpack.

That IMHO would be an easier solution that trying to convince him to rewrite the core JUST for Backpack.

a cool featur you could ad is that it is an item, you make it and you put it in the body armor thingy and you can put it over armor then this works

No offense, but I explained my reasoning in the OP. Everything in MM can be disabled. If it bothers you that much, then this plugin is not for you.

I did that with dirt and tracks, and it split into the correct stacks ... Is there any other conditions that must be present?

Edit: NVM, got it to happen.

Version 0.17 is up, fixing item duping for real! Thanks to TimeLord to helping me reproduce and track down the bug.

Afforess,

Might want to do some drop and pickup experiments... seems that items can get lost during pickup.

Example... I took a stack of 64 Cart Tracks and dropped them. Then took half a stack of 64 (32) and dropped them. Closed my inventory, switched to an empty 'page' of inventory and walked forward to pick up the 96 Cart Tracks. I got only 64 into the empty 'page' and the other 32 have magically disappeared.

EDIT: Maybe this was left over 'garbage' data in my inventory... I can't duplicate it again. Nevermind.

I'll delete the data folder for my user and start fresh after I empty it.

Really? I just dropped 100 tracks on the ground (2 stacks, 64 and 36) and switched to an empty page and they picked up fine.

Put all your stuff in a chest, and delete the "data" folder from Backpack. Then turn off the server, and reboot. It should clear any garbage.

Yeah, It would appear it was latent data from when Backpack was goofing up. I can't get it to duplicate with fresh stacks from my storage chests. No worries...

Sweet. Bug-free. What I like to hear.

Anyone know why I get this error that disables me and my players from using backpack?

Fixed in v0.18

I think using DeathChest and this plugin gives errors

Does that still happen when DeathChest is removed? If not, you need to talk to the DeathChest author, not me.

Looks like we still have stacks that go above 64 during collection. Although if you move them, they properly separate.

Players on my server have noticed and I started watching. While I was mining, I had a stack of 80, 67 and 73 cobblestone. As soon as I moved the stacks in inventory, they split properly.

Looks like that gremlin is not completely gone... but at least he's not doing damage.

I'm ready to sacrifice kittens to the demon gods to fix it. Any reliable way to reproduce it? I can't reproduce it by filling my inventory with stackable (dirt) and mining more.

So it seems that I am still duplicating after all, as well as having stacks above 64. The duplication occurs when I have a single block of something. I pick it up, and "underneath" the single block was a stack of 64. I place the single block down, and I can repeat this process.
