[Affter [PC Hotfix (18.11.2019) - Exploit fix My private server MODS was down. I switch them ON But still some players had some Faction Buildings collapsed. And all faction thralls got title Performer and you cant interact with them.]


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Moded Private AoC server
  2. Joined server all Faction buildings disapeared
  3. Logged on server Turned on All mods.
  4. Logged in to game all Faction thralls got Performer title and you cant interact with them.
  5. Server runing these mods:
  • LitMan Loot Legendary Chests
  • Fashionist v3.0.2 (1.0 and DLC compatible)
  • Pippi - User & Server Management - v3.0.2
  • BouncyCastle
  • The Age of Calamitous
  • Hosav’s UI Modification
  • SnowstormEx
  • NOPeR’s Lighted Power Stones (Wearable Torches)

If you are the server owner, then stop the server, deactivate all mods, then activate them again and start the server again. For me that fixed the problem of mods not showing up ingame.

I do not know whether that will fix buildings and thralls, for me it fixed missing decorations.
It did not fix broken buildings where my Pythagoras Steel Beams went missing and it did not fix my missing torch-bracelet, I had to rebuild these.

Still have problem with Faction thralls ( Performer Title, cant control them.).

I had this with three of Multigun’s custom thralls, the only thing I could do was to use admin-mode and the SHIFT+DEL kill-command to remove them.
Then spawn these thralls anew, because they do no longer spawn in his mod…

You can restore a backup save to prior to the update and it should have restored the beams too.

Yes, but I have rebuilt already, it was just two broken bridges…

Forgot to mention. The HP bar above NPC heads disapeared as well.

that is exactly what happens when a mod try to alter thralls (add emotes or other functions to the thrall) and the mod is removed. the thrall init logic which runs whenever the server starts and queries the existing thralls from the game.db breaks when the mod is removed. this will also remove all thrall related data (name, tier, faction, …) from the game.db and results in default values and all the thralls are nameless performers without an owner.
