Title: I think I figured out the database error.
Post by: Grey on July 11, 2003, 05:39:31 pm

I\'m not sure, and maybe someone already noted on this, but I got the database error when I created a character with left over points or negative points on the skills or str/weaknesses pages.  This could be unrelated, but I think it has something to do with it, because when I evened out all the points my character worked.

that could have something to do with it... although I evened out all my characters\' points (as every sensible player would do :P) I think that it might have something to say...

hmm did you have an instance where having 1 point left over caused the error?

hey man i think your right! i havnt been able to get it working but i made a new character about 10 minutes earlier and it started to connect me to the server...i know i used every point this time...you should definatly let other people try it to make sure that its right

Hmm.. I wonder if any of the development team will read this... Hopefully.

This is very interesting to me.  Can people please verify this?  I\'ve never created a character that didn\'t use exactly all of his points because I always just assumed I had to use them all. :-)

I have created several characters to test this theory. With all the characters I created I didn\'t spend all the points I had. With one I even didn\'t use any.

All the characters were created just fine, they were uploaded and I got in the game without a problem.

Just giving you my results.

Perhaps the error only occurs when there are minus points left, i.e. you have spent too many. Did you test this also, Keldorn?

Yes I did, but he doesn\'t let you proceed if you have negative points.
It tells you to balance the points out till you have 0 or more left.
