    Deadlife has undergone some massive changes in the past few days leading to fixing all reported bugs! This took a total of 3983 line changes in the code over the past 36 hours. Levels are saved in a new table and your old levels will convert into the new system when you join for the first time.

    Bugs Fixed
    • Level saving!
    • Prestiging
    • Losing levels upon death or logout
    • Saving to UUIDs instead of player names
    • Not caching profiles properly
    • Lots of other small things

    Technical Jargon
    The plugin originally saved levels to a database by use of a php script. I have no idea why it was originally written to do that but it wasn't very solid. Levels are now saved directly to the database instead of having a middle man. This means that we don't have to rely on the script AND the database to respond and we didn't have to rewrite the script. I also made sure that it saves levels when it should so you don't lose any.

    When you join, it checks to see if you have a new profile and if not, it will grab your old information from the old table and convert it to the new format. If you had issues with losing levels in the past, that will now be fixed but we cannot guarantee that you will have the "correct" amount of levels in your old profile. It will tell you how many levels it converted to the new profile with a message like

    Everything will then go into a nicely structured table and it will save everything there. We could possibly even setup a web UI for this in the future to see your stats!

    Reporting Bugs
    If you find any more bugs, please email me at [email protected] and make sure to be very detailed. You need to include what happened, how it happened, when it happened, and what should have happened. If you do not include all of that, I will just delete your email. Sifting through hundreds of invalid bug reports is not fun.

    Awesome! I'm sure Infection will get much more attention now (and no more "I lost my levels" threads)!

    I'll be on if any of you want to stop by and say hi. :)
