Mudwide New Character Equipment Saving

It seems new characters created, from hiatusing or just genuinely new characters, are having their equipment disappear after the next reboot. Accumulate more gear, and it disappears next reboot. This has been going for what seems over a month. Madoc was apparently looking into it back then, but he's been MIA since then. This is a big problem, it will discourage new players from staying, and those of us who have hiatused have to get new equipment every reboot. I don't know what the problem is, quitting and coming back is fine, it's related to the reboots. If Nevin, Mactorg, SW, or Madoc are around? Please come fix this bug.

Serious Bug Here!

This is a serious bug, and it's been around for a month already. Our player base is growing and this isn't helping. Please please please, fix it as soon as possible.

Re: Serious Bug Here!

Solana--can you provide more information on the instances of eq loss? Example additional info that could be valuable: char names, date created, date of incident, what items were lost?, which room did the character quit in?


Thanks, Nevin

Re: Serious Bug Here!

I can only give second hand information for others. My information was, I lost simply doe skin boots from Casandra's shop, and a dress that was marked, also from Casandra's shop. I stored my armour away just to see if the bug hit me. I quit 2 hours before reboot, and logged in at about 5:30pm CST, after I got off work at the VA Hospital. I logged in and I was empty handed.

As for when Solana was created.. (Your birthdate was: Sat Jul 11 13:49:26 2009)

I created her a lot, as she kept being left handed and I've got some odd compulsion that all my characters must be right handed. I believe I rebirthed her twice. First was left, second was left, third was right. And that was luck, I've gone a lot more rebirths to get right handed. Now I'm babbling into another topic, back to the topic at hand.

I logged out in my castle room, which is #2.

As far as other characters, I've only spoken to one that I know has the problem, and his name is Regalis. He's lost many suits of gear amongst many of his characters. He's also logged out in save rooms, on the overworld, in regular city rooms. I don't know when he was created. He has many characters in hiatus, and I do not know if they are a secret or not, so you would need to ask him. I think I answered all the questions to the fullest of my ability.
