Well I thing I might just of hit a bug it clang. Whenever it executes a certain line it segfaults where all that line is doing is calling a function. gcc runs the line fine.

LO1ZB it seems like a bug in the chunksparsing, bad blockarea reading. Perhaps worktycho would like to see it?

worktycho · 06-02-2014, 06:09 AM

There's no way that could be caused by the chunksparsing. BlockArea uses the coordinate methods for reading. Looks like a double free in blockarea to me.

This has never failed before. I suspect a buffer overflow while reading the BlockArea from the world. I'll have a look later on, possibly tomorrow.

Uhh...

I seem to have hotfixed the crash. I'd prefer a more performant solution, but for now it's good enough.

So it was the surrounding code. Stupidly didn't think of that. As for your patch its equivalent to the pre-cunksparsing code. But yes, a more effect solution would be good.

I had a crash. It seems a random crash but it happened when saving world.
I uploaded it so you can have a look and maybe make MCServer a little more stable Smile

I'm writing a generic article about terrain generation in MCS and in minecraft generally. So far I have the biome generator covered. Tell me what you think:
http://mc-server.xoft.cz/docs/Generator.html
(it's also in the repo on the GeneratorArticle branch, in $/docs)

I guess i should scale down those hand-drawn images to half their dimensions. They look just too big.
